Default Putting Car Back to Stock-DFW Area

I hate to do it but I am going to sell my GS and figured it best to put it back to stock. With that being said if anyone in the DFW area has any interest in anything I have on the car, let me know. Thanks, Bill.


-L-tuned side skirts available. Sale Pending.
-Brakes are sold.
-3.76 rear end and sways are spoken for.
-Front and rear Strut bars are spoken for.
-Wheels possibly spoken for.
-TTE lip, Exhaust, shocks and springs are staying on the car unless someone what to swap me for their stockers.
-SRT intake still available.

Well, I have a chance on a '04 MB E55 from a neighbor. I know its a MB but it is a real sick car. If that falls through I am looking at a new Tundra. I really hate to sell my GS but it is time to do something else.

Unhappy

When I had my 2000 Tundra 4x4 Ltd. TRD, TundraSolutions.com was THE site for those. Right as I sold it he began playing with charging for access, so I don't know what kind of shape the site's in nowadays. I had LOTS of fun with that truck. You won't regret the Tundra purchase as much as you would the MB ownership.

I guess we're due to lose our North Texas Lexus group organizer extraordinaire and mighty fun guy to hang with?

Thanks, I may take you up on it. I just got a PM from a guy who lives in Plano with a GS430 that you did some work for. He said you refered him to me about my 3.76 LSD. I really appreciate you doing that for me. He is going to drive my car this weekend to get a feel for the 3.76 gearing. If he likes it, we will be by to have you do the swap for us. Thanks Jason.

Thanks for the great support. What ever vehicle I end up with, I will still come out to the meets. My wife still has the GX470 so we will still be Lexus owners. I know about the MB problems but the car is so scary fast I really want it. I will have to find someone to take over the DFW master Lexus owners list. Anyone what the be the keeper of the list?

I dont want to be the "keeper of the list" but if you want a Tundra let me know (I am NOT a salesman) I am a manager for a Toyota dealership. If you want any Info or anything, Let me know.

What dealership are your at? I work right down the road from Toyota of Plano. I am still hoping to buy the E55 but I want the Tundra as a back up deal. Thanks for the help.

I am selling the rear end. It is a 3.76 LSD. I purchased it from a guy in Houston who bought it directly from Rod Millen for $1799.00. The catch is that I need to swap stock rear ends with who ever buys it. I had one guy drive my car last week to see if he may be interested. I have not heard back yet so as of right now it is still for sale. Just let me know.
