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

I've got a whole thread on it

Here's the most recent post https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/hilux-167-snorkel-for-3-4l-tacoma.374598/#post-10368799

 

RainX'd the windshield, front windows, and mirrors.

saw the rainX window cleaner + rain repellent at HD, decided to give it a try...

Figured worst case I end up with clean windows, best case it works as advertised and I can see better.

 

FINALLY =D
powdercoated black 15x7 stock aluminum tacoma wheels
I'm pretty sure I've been waiting on this my whole life

 

Looks great!

 

Correct me if im wrong but our stock exhaust is 2.25 in/ out.. trying to order a weld in muffler?

 

Yes

 

Thanks!

 

For people running Dakar leafs with the OME shackles, are your shackle angles basically vertical? I feel like that is a terrible angle for them to be at, and it would ride much smoother if they were closer to 45*. Other than moving the shackle hanger, what else can be done?

 

replaced the u joints in the rear.

 

Finished my corner lights and grille lights yesterday.

 

All LED in the corner lights? Turn signals as well?

 

yup. my lenses popped off so i was able to put some led bolts in there. they work like a switch led but dont have the white, just amber

 

Oh, so if I did that, I would lose my running lights....nevermind

 

idk if you would loose them. i have them wired as parking lights and signals. they flash when i signal and are constant when the parking lights are on

 

Yes, I would lose them from what it sounds like. I have switchbacks for DRL's and turn signals

 

Ok then yea. you wouldn't be able to do what i did anyway unless you could find a way to open your corner lights. they cannot be opened usually.

 

Ah. Oh well. Yours look cool!

 

Finally, my long lost twin

 

I moved it over in the drive way.......I also got a new tundra brake upgrade set up. I got a new allpro pack rack to put my new tupei grand sabana in Siberian camo on order from the factory!!! Man im excited for the new stuff!! Ill post pics when im done.

 

Today I got an excuse to upgrade my front bumper. Hit a deer on the way home from my maiden voyage with my kayak. Didn't get to keep it since I live in AZ but what a day. Damn
