I Bought A First Gen Toyota Sequoia - Full Tour 

That’s a lot 😂

Why three

Why not

Thanks! That is awesome to hear! Sounds like a beast! Can’t wait to mod mine!

I had similar brake light issues as you did, but mine were cleared up by replacing all the brakes, MC, and calipers. After seeing your latest vid I’ll take another peek at my brake booster, but my light hasn’t been back…

@@MartyMotoring is the limited the same size as the sr5? which one is better?

@@charlesben9104 Yes they are all the same dimensions/size. The limited just has standard options like heated leather seats and a few other things like a spoiler. I’ve seen a lot of SR5s specd the same though

Awesome. I picked up an 02 limited for 3500. Rust free frame. Only 183k. Needs some minor maintenance though. What have you had to do to yours?

@jakesmith-ho4bl new suspension but to be fair it has 330k and my rear diff went. My new problem is rack and pinion mechanic wants 2k to fix it.

@louzer4609 ouch. I've priced racks myself and am like going to use on from rock auto when the time comes.. Oem is close to 900. I think the price you got is unfair. The first thing I will have to do is UCA,LCA,Tie rods , and all ball joints. Luckily my brother is a huge help.

Nice, low miles and good price

Is it possible to get 19mpg?

And the money you save you can put into your overlanding upgrades

@@rvroutdoors2131 After months of hunting I eventually came upon a nice 2005 LX470. The Sequoias are great but in my area I found that nice ones were prices in a range that made the LX make more sense and the well taken care of Sequoias did not stay on the market for long. I don't regret the extra money I dropped on the LX but whenever I see a Sequoia I look.

It was super clean too I just got it back yesterday. It drives amazing I'll try to upload a video. Still need to get the front fiberglass fenders painted.

Is the 06 bad? I just picked one up, 140k miles. 5k

@@leoiturrey1800 I think it, no 6. They went down in horsepower a little, but it's not bad. No

Is 01 ok

Wow! That’s a big build! Very nice! I recently did new bilstiens and some other upgrades which has made the truck worlds better

@@MartyMotoring That's nice I probably should have done the same thing lol. I was just wanting a simple lift. But I said screw it you only live once. It is unbelievably nice it drives amazing. My friend Has a 2017 Toyota Tacoma. We just went camping and on a pretty rough road. He put his in 4x4 And kind of had a little bit of struggle. I left mine and 2 wheel drive. And it went through everything like it was nothing.. No spinning or anything.. I was amazed. The four I would have had to put it in 4x4. It is all wheel drive tho. Size 35in tires Make a world of difference. My friends tacoma had regular Stock tires. So he was spinning quite a bit?

How many miles?

@@mcUSA94 310km

Very nice! That would be a great setup. If you want simplicity and less issues I’d definitely recommend the 2008+ over the first gen like mine. The first gen required timing belt changes every 100k, lower ball joints as well, and they tend to be rusty. The second gens have the bigger engine with a timing chain that doesn’t need replaced, and they fixed the lower ball joint design - it’s a lot safer.

@@MartyMotoringhmm. Then why do people seem to value the 1st gen’s over the 2nd?

Welcome back! Lol there's so many videos on RU-vid that it's so easy to miss new ones! But that is awesome, the ISF is a beast of a car, and so is the Sequoia! This is my 2nd Sequoia, and they are super solid cheaper SUVs. You have less miles than me which is great! I can't wait to do more with mine! Great combo!

@Mr.E First thing is to buy an OEM gas cap from a dealership, if you haven't already. They're not that expensive and may solve your problem

@@heavilypeted The code is for a large leak detected. The gas cap hisses when i remove it so i think it has good back pressure. ill try that though but im wondering if its a canister purge valve issue.

Funny I got one that needs almost exactly all that

@@atlaslion5128 let me know how it goes sir

Hey! I got it from Crutchfield.com. The Crux BT adapter.

Hmm sounds like an abs issue - gotta get it scanned with a scanner that supports abs module reading

Just cut out the muffler and put a glasspack in there, had it welded. I'm doing a proper aftermarket muffler this time, still cheaper than an exhaust system

Timing belt and water pump are recommended every 90-100k miles. Lower ball joints about the same time period. The coating should last a long time if cared for. I usually check the car out myself but bringing it to a mechanic isn’t a bad idea.

@@MartyMotoringThanks so much for your opinion. We have to replace a vehicle for a second time in 2 years because of a reckless driver. We were sitting at a light waiting behind other cars for it to change and someone was not even watching the road and slammed into us at high speed without braking. She just said she looked away, but we think she must have been doing something, like be on her phone. People are so reckless today. Accidents happen, but pure recklessness is a sin. I hate it happened at all because she sandwiched us in with two other cars up front. Her insurance is going up and I hope that will teach her, but I rather preachers in this land repent and get back to the truth and teach people to love thy neighbor again by the Word of God. I forgive her because she owed up to the fact it was her fault and was sorry to see us hurt so bad. I and my daughters are still recuperating and this happened last Thursday night. The condition and the mind of the people out there is bad. When I was young, there weren't the massive amount of recks or sin for that matter as there is today. Jesus said repent or perish. I feel for the young and want them to find the truth in the Word of God for themselves. I want them to study the Bible approved and form their own churches if necessary . Most churches keep their tax exempt status by not preaching on certain subjects, leaving a lot of truth of God's Kingdom Ways out. What is that Saying? Oh! " The truth shall set you free." I thank you for your education in this vehicle. This helps me out. Here is a man starting his own Ekklesia (church) in his home. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Y4ZjqyW3xDA.htmlsi=hpws2QSSkS6-TzRx also this other brother wakes people up to see truth. ru-vid.comYWn46ZXp05s?si=g_5vIbpDCVEvLj5g God Bless you in Jesus Christ.

$1100

Turn key to the left

I fit but it’s not comfortable 😂 I’m also 6’1” and 280lbs

Nice! Yeah these engines are good if you replace the timing belt on time and keep up with everything. I just did valve cover gaskets and Lower ball joints and chasing down an oil leak. This 4.7L V8 is solid and actually derived from the 4.0L in the Lexus LS400 made in the 90s. Very similar to the 4.3L later produced. They went to this 4.7L and then the 5.7L in 2007/2008. Plus my 2008 ISF saw the first 5.0L V8 in production from Toyota/Lexus so that was cool and powerful! Toyota V8s aren’t the most powerful but definitely last a long time! Hoping my Sequoia does

You can solve that real quick and easily tho heh

Haven’t heard of that issue but easy fix lol

@@thoggboogus2560 Can you point me in the right direction on what spacers you used? My sequoia is outsmarting me and still pulling a CEL.... *Sad face*

313k now 😅

Not bad at all!

Yeah 13-15mpg isn’t great but what’s wrong with the 4wd? Mine has a locking center diff along with true 4HI and 4LO. If it’s not locked, it acts as an open diff AWD system

@@MartyMotoring i was getting 12 mpg with alot of highway and the center diff lock didn't make any difference in my experience it couldn't handle off-road stuff a real transfercase 4x4 could and it was almost not able to pull a old honda accord out of the snow i was so excited to buy it 08 with all the options and it let me down so bad i traded it in on a 2013 4wd f150 ecoboost (a proper beast that now has over 260k and still tows like its nothing) 😮‍💨
