    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    Just found some off of Amazon. Pretty decent fit. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004BCJEBO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071R3KTBB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    Checked this forum for the first time in ages and saw that I was getting called out for going MIA, so here's the latest update... there are no updates. Still have the Sequoia. It's still been great. I did do some new headlights and led bulbs, but that's fairly boring. Got a handful of...

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    Little follow up: Gonna finally get around to doing some upgrades on my pig. I was waiting on the official release, but saw the new Bronco specs today and realized I should just throw some more upgrades on the ol' girl and keep running it. New Bronco isn't big enough for my needs and I...

    Check out my build thread in regards to suspension. I've got all the part numbers listed. Very happy with the results. The adjustable rear shocks might really help with the weight, too. https://sequoia-forums.com/threads/2005-sequoia-pre-lander.87452/

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    There's plenty of people running 35's out there. I found at least a dozen builds on the T.S.O.R. Facebook page that had photos of how they made 'em clear. Didn't seem like too big of a deal. They definitely fit the vehicle a lot better (proportion-wise). My buddy runs a shop that does...

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    Not much to report. The "Secoitus" has been a great vehicle thus far. As planned, I ditched the whole third row as well as the second row seat behind the passenger (it's a four seater now). Did this for space and convenience and it's worked out great. Used it all Summer for the beach and...

    King Rear Shock Options

    I looked into Fox since they offered a front reservoir option, but if you want a 2.5" shock for the rear I'm pretty sure you have to order them custom.

    King Rear Shock Options

    So far, so good. The back actually feels way better than the front (I've got the king extended stock version up front that seems oversprung). I think the rear will be even better once the rear springs break in a bit. I haven't even bothered checking where the adjusters are in the rear yet...

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    They're the Method 701's. 17x8.5. 0 offset, 4.75" backspacing. Because of the spindle gussets I had to use 1.25" Spidertrax wheel spacers. I've gotta wait for the springs to settle, but I think I need to back off the preload on the front coilovers. I asked them to set it up so it was...

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    Well, I finally got everything and had it all installed yesterday. I'm picking it up this afternoon, but was sent some teaser photos from the guy doing the install. Very stoked with how it's turning out. I'll give some more feedback on the rear shocks once I get some miles on her.

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    I guess I'll update my thread, even though it seems a bit quiet around here. Everything I need to get my project going is either waiting patiently in my garage, ordered, or being shipped. I got cold feet in regards to the 285x75x17's. I ended up going with the more tried and true...

    King Rear Shock Options

    That was my thought as well. I don't think it'll be an issue, but I'll find out soon. Ordered my shocks yesterday.

    King Rear Shock Options

    I found another little clue that the 80 series shocks should be a direct fit. It looks like the Dobison long travel shocks that 1stgenoffroad sells for the rear of the Sequoia are actually made for the Landcruiser 80. https://www.1stgenoffroad.com/store/p206/DobinsonRearShock.html#/ I'm...

    King Rear Shock Options

    Here's the diagram that King sent on the shocks I'm looking into. Any thoughts? Looks like the compressed length is teeny bit too long according to the diagram.

    King Rear Shock Options

    Not yet. Was hoping to get some feedback on here before I did. I might just bite the bullet and order 'em up this week. I'm gonna get on the phone with King and see what they say before I do. I'll definitely post something up once I do.

    2005 Sequoia Pre-Lander

    I've always been a Ford guy and have built up a bunch of different platforms for prerunning, chasing, exploring and surfing around Baja (three F150'a, a couple of other Broncos, a ranger, two Expeditions, etc, etc). I'll post some links once I'm not deemed a "newb". Anyways, after coming to...

    King Rear Shock Options

    Hello all! I'm new to the forum, but I've been lurking on here for a while. I've been doing my homework for a while on Sequoias and finally found one last week and pulled the trigger (2005 Limited 4wd w 91k miles). Anyways, I've been looking into rear suspension options and trying to...
