    Unanswered Looking at buying a 2005 Sequoia!

    BigNuge’s 2002 Limited Build

    Hey Mad, Congrats on the 07, have not really found a specific "toyota mechanic shop" but I can tell you that the vehicle is well known, not to bad to work on if doing it yourself and plenty of OEM parts on the market. Are you looking to do anything specific ? or any specific issues you are...

    Here is another one, I realize this guy is talking about on his Jeep but the principal is the same. He is very thorough and compares the 4.88 to the 5.13 re-gear from stock. Ghost
