What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Do u just fill it till it starts coming out?? I might just drain it and put new oil

 

Yes drain it. Then fill til it comes out. Let it sit til it barely flows out, if you over fill it, it'll bubble out the overflow tube and make a mess

 

But it's not going to hurt anything if I do over fill it??

 

Just your driveway

 

Would it be worth changing to synthetic oil at 150k? Been running regular and gave synthetic a thought but wasn't sure it would be worth it

 

That's what I did.

Assuming you are talking about diff oil...

 

Yep front diff oil, what oil do I use??

 

75w90, brand of your liking, I choose Lucas.

 

Nope not worth it.

 

It's fairly hard to get it too full. It will be spilling out of the fill hole when it's full.

 

Sounds good, thanks guys!!

 

Here's a pic of my LED swap

 

Purple?

 

Made a little more progress on my DIY bumper yesterday. Almost time for paint

 

Do the sides wrap around the paint? Stone enough to not bend into the paint when sliding into a tree?

Not very busy at work eh?

 

10 bucks says this starts a "what color is this dress?" type of debate.

 

They do wrap around over the lower quarters. I'm a little worried about them crushing in. There is 1 support at the bottom to the mount/frame so it would take a really big hit. It is close enough that I cant get any support behind it though. If it does hit, I could always chop it off and rebuild it with the quarters cut off. I will say I don't plan on wheeling hard enough to cause a hit like that, we know how that goes though.

It has died this last pay period. The snow and tax season hurt a little, also no good paying recalls going on right now. Last year I was swamped with 2-3 D0M recalls a day plus normal work.

 

Nice... your soft topper looks interesting... any more pics?

 

Probably so... don't have 10 bucks but I got plenty of beer.

 

well good luck with that not hitting a tree thing! Lol... but cutting the bed side later isnt a bad option...

with work, I hear you snow slows it down a bit... we've been slammed with curb checks and rodent damage. Easy money that and mdt test took a lot of time.
