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

There's a few just have to look hard enough you'll find em

 

You should have seen the crap I saw in Tampa though. Atrocious rigs were abundant.

 

Yup, Florida has Hawaii level rig styling. Lots of shiny visual stuff, little function. Not all that way, but more than I see over here. Whatever floats their boat I guess. Some of it looks really good some is stretched mudterrains on 11" backspacing rims on stacked 6" block lifts.

 

I've seen a few when I'm visiting my parents in Orlando haha

 

Anyone on here running camburg coilovers and a steel tube bumper with no winch/skidplates?

Someone has been asking to buy my arb and warn m8000, if I sold it I was thinking of buying a trail gear low profile tube bumper but not sure how my truck is going to ride without all the extra weight up front... I think they're 600 or maybe even 650 lb springs, but are somewhere between 5-10/years old so not as stiff as brand new

Im about to start writing engineering final exams otherwise I would just pull my bumper off and take it out for a rip myself, but the time is a factor.

 

Wanna give me the answers

I could use them for when my finals come next month

 

Filled up and when I got home, I decided to do a visual check to see if the fuel leak is from the same spot as before. Yup, fresh gas on top of the tank by the back end of the top of the sending unit. I hope me fucking up 1 of 8 screws last time didn't screw me. It was good for 3 months, so it'd be strange if that were preventing it from sealing right now. But even if that were the case, it seems odd that enough gas would leak out of an ever so slightly not tight enough seal in the 3.7 miles from gas station to my house that it would be easily visible. Maybe there's a hole in one of the lines there? I guess I've got to take the bed off again. Now the question is do I delay it and hope I pass inspection this month, or do I try to get that done before the month is through. Hmm.

 

Well dang man hit me up next time you pass through we'll have a beer

 

Haha I'll take a mental snapshot to send you after I'm done! Which program are you in - mechanical? Good luck!

 

'preciate it! Yeah Mechanical, I'll be done next summer

 

Right on, ive got one more year after this left, also in mech. End is almost in sight!

 

Thanks to @1eyedclyde for these!!! 10" 2.0's! Just have to trim one side of the bigger eyelet bushings to fit in the shock for the stock mounts! Probably relocate the shocks within a month. What do you guys suggest for a cross member for the relocation?. Maybe a 3/4" tube .120 thick DOM??

 

1.25 is what I was thinking for making a new shock cross member.

 

There's finally a light at the end of the long tunnel!

 

Seems like a pretty decent size. I'm gonna do some more research before pulling the trigger!

 

Mine is 1.75". Lots of options for available tabs from ruffstuff pre-cut for 1.75 tubing.

 

I like that too! And how are yours relocated again I forgot!

 

Don't have a better picture right now:



3/16" plate was welded to the frame. Crossmember is in line with the factory rear mount. 10" 7100 short bodies.

I just got a nice welder. So I'll be breaking the pack down soon to properly cycle, install wheeler's bumps, and possibly move shocks to the other side of the crossmember to keep them more vertical. Might also swap the shocks at the same time.

 

You're welcome!
