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

Someone said earlier about 60k miles and you have to grease them every so often to I guess

 

Sweet. So they are every bit as reliable as standard ball joints.

Digiratus, how often do you lube yours? Also, most people on t4r.org use dry lube. Same for the people on here? Not trying to sound ignorant, I just trust the opinions here better. Ive come to the conclusion that 80% of 4runner owners are morons.

 

Well now I have to second guess Uniballs vs LR ball joint style.... Monte said it.. lol

 

Make it sound like he's the ghandi of 1st gen tacomas lol

 

He has definately proved his knowledge on the forum lol. I wouldnt go toe to toe in a Tacoma debate anyway. Well.. I know the truck pretty well, just need help on the aftermarket stuff. Plus he's broken like... everything on his tacoma at least once lol. So he's pretty experienced lol

I just respect his opinion. I know he knows what hes talking about.

Edit: i capitalized an I
Edit: ^ damnit

 

at that edit haha ^^^^

 

Eh. Not really. But they are totally good for most people. I think you'd be happy with them.

Sorta. They can be. You just have to clean them out. I know mike cleans his truck very well after every trip.

 

Oh I know he has, it's why his trucks named Frankenstein. It's literally 2 trucks made into one. unless you start talk about his lights and wiring then it's equal to a house lol but it's BA either way. Hope I can get my truck close to that level of awesome one day

 

What he has trucks that he sacrifice lol to keep frank alive? Damn monte go easy on poor frank

 

Yea there is about 10 different trucks in Frankenstein at the moment. Ha be 11 soon with the new rear axle.

Not call Frankenstien for nothing haha

 

Put in a bit more work on the midskid yesterday:

 

Went wheeling in Moab for a week. Had strange vibrations on the drive home, found out it was the u joint at the rear diff. I think it has a few miles left in it.

 

Quick question, I have 16x8 rims with 4mm backspacing and -12 offset with 265's. I want a little bit wider stance so I was going to get 1.25" spacers. Will I rub anywhere? Poked around on the interwebs but couldn't find a distinctive answer

 

Get me some too

 

Took a few pictures

 

I'm an idiot meant 4" not mm. Well scratch that from the list haha

thanks for the quick answer

 

This.

You'll have to cut the lower part of the fender possibly too

 

Meh not worth it to me too much effort and I could use that $100 for something better

 

Hey, whatever it takes!! Gotta improvise man! LOL

Looking good!
