1st Gen Toyota Tundra w/ 4.7 V8 | BUILT TO DESTROY 

Badass Toyota Tundra number1

I love how he stuck whith the 4.7

Feeling the Toyota love on this one! These build features are sick! Keep em coming 🤙

That brown steelit is the bomb!!

SO inspiring! Please, Terra bros, don't let me give up on modding out my Tundra! Gotta keep motivated!

That’s a BLT, Beamed Linked Toyota!!! Rad truck!

I forgot to mention. The guy's truck is bad ass. I dig garage builds. Mine is.....with a 2JZGTE VVTi , solid axle front end (2 wd, beam from a Jeep Cherokee) with Grand Cherokee hubs. Currently supported by Trail Gear front leaf pack and Sky off road S.A.C. front spring mount. In the rear the (Grand Cherokee) Super Dana 44 with an aluminum center pumpkin. I modified both with a Plasma torch to go leaf spring.

Dooood that truck is lit like light! But that garage is ballllliiiinnnnnnnn!!!

Definitely cencal with the rust haha, cool truck keep up the content!

2uz baby!

Yeah bro!!! CenCal Rocks! I’m born and raised in SM until I was 16 and moved to Denver. But I had a sick ass Red 86 Ranger (only thing 86 was the frame & cab), with a 5.0 swap, C6 Tranny, ext ibeams, 9” trussed rear end w/4:56 gears, Detroit Locked, 35x12.50R15 BFG Muds, King COs up front, King smoothies w/res in rear, believe it or not I kept the stock tank from that came with the stock motor which was 15gal, then I added a 26gal fuel cell right underneath the back after the rear end; it was cool because I had a just a lil switch to flip from one tank to the other but all together was 41gal which was well needed, but just a bed shock mount for the smoothies, single full size spare, Art Carr shifter, and then Perry’s Fiberglass the whole truck (I don’t even think he makes glass anymore either). But started building the truck lil after 15 turned 16 and flipped it on its top in the SM River Bed near Guadalupe. Fuck that day. Easy fix tho to be honest. I know you or one of your friends saw this Ranger. It was one of few 5.0 Rangers around at the time. I was a sophomore at St. Joe’s. No I’m not rich. Anyways then I ended up moving to Littleton, CO right when Sophomore year started. So there I was now driving to high school in a 2WD Ranger with a V8, good gearing, rear end locked in the snow driving sideways haha! It sucked! So I bought a 2000 Tundra 4x4 AC. Put Total Chaos UCAs w/King 3.5” bolt on COs, some Bilstein’s & like an add a leaf in the rear w/285/75R17 BFG ATs. Fell in love with that fucking truck. Drive her til 300,000miles & still sold it for like $6000! Now I live in Sparks, NV and I have another 2000 4.7 4x4 Tundra. So far I’ve just built the fuck out of the motor and now getting ready to spend a shit ton of money that I wish I didn’t have to but it is a nice kit. To buy a Solo Motorsports XLT Kit, then still not sure what to do in the rear for suspension. But I do love the 1st Gen Tundras. I have to have a 4WD tho. When I live in CO I took my first one on some gnarly Jeep trails, it def surprised the shit out of me how well I could Jeep drive it and then literally got all 4 wheels off the ground with nothing broken. Sorry for rambling. It’s just not everyday I find someone who built a sick ass 1st Gen Tundra after someone else’s even completely insane Tundra 👍 and also Central Coast Bros!!! Also I know that girl is obviously taken in your video, but damn I miss the Central Coast Girls. But ya growing up right at the River Bed and Bull Canyon. I rode my dirtbike there every day and then my truck. Miss that. Shoot! Sorry this is so long. Anyways, since you’re not a huge drive from me and you have a shop basically. Could I pay you to possibly build a few things for my Tundra? Also one tip to get a lil bit more throttle and MPG on your truck. Jet Performance MAF for sure, seems like you have some sort of diff air intake already, then this is a small add on but makes a huge diff and it’s cheap.

I’ll be coming down there soon anyways to visit some friends and family. There’s pics of all my trucks on my Instagram. I need to add more of the detail pics of the Ranger & it’s sucks not having my Tundra with suspension already. I wanna run 37”s, 5:29 gears and like you said engine swap LS3 sounds nice👍Anyways much love to you and your friends. I miss the people I grew up with in the area of CA. Also go eat some Charlie’s for me in Orcutt. Man that place is bomb

My dream car. Great video boys!!

Dude, that shit is bad ass. I have a nasty ass tundra in Missouri I'd love to show ya. Great video. You definitely know your shit. I fucking wish you were my neighbor. Oh mines a built 5.7 that has drug duramaxs around buildings. Yes my tundra will drag your diesel duramax. Its 578hp with 649 torque dyno. Straight beast but I'm now getting into the suspension and that's all the tundra missed. I dont want ugly though, I like showing my shit off. Anyway great video and bad ass truck!!!!

Lockdown has been rough. Thanks for making stuff to watch.

Inspired me to start a build with my stock engine. Freakin awesome!

Nice video & truck, thanks for sharing brotha.🤘🏁

I wanna know about that air filter!

Thank you from San Antonio Texas !! Hope to come around to building a 1st gen also. Thanks for the inspiration 🙂

Dipped in the ocean

Need more videos like this with clips of trucks hucking!

He got the caster confused 🤔

Love the 1st Gen tundra! Thinking about doing something like this to my tundra with a rusted frame in my driveway

Hell yeah keepin the 4.7

I wonder how much this truck weighs with the bed cut /mods and fuel cell

Take everything apart and 'Steelit'. I built my truck in the desert, but as soon as I moved Huntington Beach, (in time) The same thing happened to my truck. Love the cool breeze, hate the ocean spray.

That truck is nice you gotta break it down blast it, cap the open tubes and powder coat it or something cause it’s gonna rot away! Don’t let that happen you did a great job!

Hell yeah love these vids keep it up boys! Much love from New Zealand

Very nice tundra I love it 👍

YEA LMAO YOU CAN'T KILL THE 4.7!!! I've gone thru all kinds of hell and yeeeaa man

God damn that thing is a monster

This build is awesome. I'd love to swap the V8 into my 1st gen tacoma.

Congrats buddy!

My favorite tundra

Hell yeah man, central CALI boy..... tear in up pismo.... OUR R&D LOCATION👌😉 THAT'S WHY I HAVE A TUNDRA. COMP HILL....

Gaaaaa I love seeing this it fuels me to work on my first gen!!!

Now THAT is WTF I'm talking about....That aint rust thats PATINAAAAA. LOL

I still can't hardly believe that thing was 'home built'. That is a SERIOUS rig!! Dude ought to start his own shop.

I need a desert trip too been too long

it's the 3-uz fe?

Krylon hammer finish will hold up real good for that rust. . 🤠

I want a rear setup that bolts on minimum welding/ mig to get it on ! But everything tig welded on the setup!

You guys make long travel kits?

Evan sounds like Nardwar. Doo doo do doo doo...

Pretty much stock motor.....minus the friggin beer keg for an air intake!!!!

I came from tiktok

The garage cnc game is on point. 👍🏻

Man I need him to cut me some long travel A Arms🤔

Such a sick build. Gonna be fun to strip and paint when the rust gets bad

Roached

Ok I have a question, With Robby Gordon AWD truck is that the future of offroad trucks?

Haha his shocks look like mine with that rust on them

Ill have you know, I'm a man of culture myself. I got a 4.7 V8 02 Supercharged Tundra *tips fedora*

Mitch join First Gen Tundra's group on Facebook if you haven't already. Siiiiick bro

How to get in touch with Mitch? Looking for an I Beam kit for a first gen 4Runner

My first gen tundra lt truck could use this

Is that rust just inevitable for him?? Or is there certain steps that can be taken to prevent it

Nice but I want to see him get into that cage! I have a stout cage but no door bars like that.. I think I would rather risk death than to spend 10+ years crawling in and out of that thing... I am only 34 but I’m even getting too old to do the dukes of hazard thing every time

I live in San Diego I'm a construction worker I recently damaged my trucks suspension at job site . I have around 6k to rebuild the front suspension. Will you able to pick up a side job an help me with my build ? I have a first gen tundra 2002 .great new RU-vid video idea aha

Badass

What did you do with the valve body in this auto? Are the 5 speeds in the 05 and 06 good for this kind of abuse?

now that it's all rusted he can just get a gallon of rust converter and just brush it on everything

wait......james has a build????

thought this was hoonigan

More like FUNdra! 🤣🤣🤣

that thing is a pile 😬
