Welcome to my build thread. She is a 99 SR5 that I picked up on May 11, 2013 with 140,400 miles on her. She came equipped with the factory e-locker, an auto-dim compass mirror, and I have recently discovered that she sits on factory highlander springs.
The next weekend I installed a B&M trans cooler, completely bypassing the factory cooler. I also replace the leaking valve cover gaskets, and replaced the spark plugs and ignition wires.
Since then I have only done a few things. Mainly piecing together my lift and acquiring other odds and ends for her.
