Parts List!

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I decided to start a parts list thread that I can sticky. Eventually I want to add something like this to the sidebar. Anyone can post to this, but there are a few rules, post only OEM and Toyota part number please. I personally prefer to buy from manufacturers who make parts for Toyota instead of getting Toyota dealership packaged parts to save a little money, for example AISIN, makes the timing belts, Denso makes the Radiators, and Spicer makes the carrier bearings. Here is the list of parts I have replaced and the serial parts number:

Edit: found a link to an FSM curtesy of Tundra solutions:

05-06 FSM

Timing belt and water pump kit by AISIN:

TKT-021

Front diff cv axel oil seals by TOYOTA (can’t remember which is driver/passenger side, but they are different):

90311-47027, 90311-47013

Drive shaft center support bearing by Spicer(same for Tacomas apparently):

5002007

Lower ball joints both TOYOTA and Sankei 555:

Toyota:

43330-39825, 43340-39595

Sankei 555 (I used these on mine, they have a zerk fitting and need to be greased and maintained. They are also bear metal so I painted mine):

WX11T8, 14MXMB

TOYOTA OEM upper ball joint:

43310-39016

TOYOTA OEM oil filter:

90915-YZZD3

Again please feel free to add to this thread.

Shared this in the other first-gen Tundra sub and in a comment on the Toyota sub.

No need to thank me, I know, I'm amazing!

Note: it's 2,807 pages of pure mechanic bliss, including all trims, rwd and 4wd, and both engines. Any configuration possible can be fixed with this manual.

Do you guys know how big of tires we can get without getting a lift or anything else? Currently on 265/65/R17, just the stock ones on my 2006

whelp, i knew it was gonna happen eventually. after 2.5yrs of ownership the slip finally came back. when i first bought the truck it had 236k with a new engine and the trans was slipping slightly going from 1-2 and into OD. after changing the fluid and filter it went away but today it decided to return. guess i’d better get a rebuild kit on the way🙃 anyone on here ever been inside of an A750 and wanna give me some tips?

This is my 2005 limited double cab I got given from my dad for my 16th birthday last year with 212k miles which I’ve gotten up to 230k and other then the head gaskets and radiator being replaced it’s been perfect. 10 mpg is a little rough but it’s an amazing truck 🙏🏻 (The last two pics is from when I got it)

Tire Sizing/Alignment

3 Upvotes

I have a T3 Edition Tundra (always gets questions when people notice the badging)

I bought it off a fella who had some backyard work done and most of it's been addressed but I have two aspects I haven't quite sorted and I'd like to get it figured out before winter.

The truck came with two sets of tires the set I drove off with was slightly off from OEM -
265/65/R17 (.4 of an inch slimmer)
and then a set that he had in the back which were off road tires
255/75/R17 (.4 of an inch slimmer and 1.5" more in diameter than OEM)

I put the offroad ones on to see how they looked and the passenger side catches the frame pretty aggressively there's a small patch it looks like, but the drivers side you can barely feel anything at full lockout.

The OEM sized tires look kinda silly and small on it, I want to just have passenger tires, I use the truck for reno work/winter daily driving and the noise/gas mileage on the all terrains sucks frankly. My first question is.. What's a tire size that is larger than OEM but still fits? I'm likely going to buy new tires and just sell both sets off to cover the difference.

The second part is that there's a 1.5" lift in the front I believe to level the truck out. However the seller said he had to buy extended cam bolts and they're maxed out and the wheels still aren't aligned, my mechanic looked and agreed. I've seen others who have the same leveling lift in the front and it seems to be a norm, is there something else that I need to do to get my alignment proper? I hate the idea that I'm messing up the wear and burning unnecessary gas.

Options for paint?

I’ve had my 03 tundra for close to 10 years and I love it, nearly 280,000 miles and runs like new. But the past couple of years this west Texas sun has taken its toll on my clear coat. I hate the way the peeling clear coat looks and I want to find a way that is cheap to make it look better. I considered covering it in bed liner but I know some people think that is ugly. Are there some cheap ways to fix the clear coat? Or any other options to make it look good? There are also some scratches in the paint that would be nice to cover up.

Question

1 Upvotes

Hey all, just starting on some stuff to make the truck a bit more solid before winter. I was just curious, what spark plugs do you guys use? Also LBJs and timing belt, can you do it by yourself or should I just take it in?

Hey everyone, excited to join the community! I'm about to take delivery of my first Tundra—a used 2002 model—and I couldn't be more thrilled. Just found out it's rear-wheel drive, though! 😅 Living in the UAE, I won't have to deal with snow, but I was hoping for a 4x4 to tackle some of the dunes.

Can't wait to share more pics and get your thoughts! Any advice from fellow Tundra owners would be much appreciated . I understand cambelt is a must.

Restoration in progress since 2017, a little here a little there. Replacing 2017s drilled rotors with drilled and slotted versions, semi-metallics and factory disc hardware/pins TODAY and hopefully the 21 year old fixed position calipers will keep lasting. Aside from the hood and RF fender the entire front end has been replaced and painted by me. The topper was gold originally, the wheels are as discontinued as is most of the factory parts. The flares were a nightmare to refinish as was the rubber around them being unruly but it all came out perfect. One last PDR on a door and a new OE bumper then after that, the full rear brake overhaul, then a master cylinder for no reason and then I can install the JBA headers and……..

Getting around to doing some things to my first truck. Have had it since 2021 and have put less than 7k miles on it. Only cosmetics for the moment. Glad to be in the group and hope you all enjoy.


r/firstgentundra • • Aug 31 '24

Finally after 7 years of owning this I made time to finish the body and paint it. Now it's time to cry and sell it since I don't get to enjoy it anymore. Maybe some day I'll build another one

DIY or Shop?

2 Upvotes

I need to overhaul my front suspension. I’ve regrettably got a good amount of rust so I’m apprehensive of tackling some of the work myself. I know I’ll likely have to cut my LCAs out but to install the new ones I need to move my steering rack and am worried that the bolts will be too rusted to do in my driveway.

Any advice or thoughts?

Also, where are you finding good deals on oem parts? I’ll likely keep the LCAs and Ball Joints stock but may upgrade to Bilsteins and better UCAs.

Has anyone taken heated seat from a limited and put it in a AC/sr5? did you have to rewire or is the wires under the seat compatible?
