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

Yeah I figure it wouldnt be too hard to run a wire. I was just hoping there was one already in there for it haha. Sometimes they do that. I'll probably save it for something to do later before I put a cage in. I got it out of a 2002 Taco I think it was.

I'm jealous because I'm sure the clouds parted and angels sang for somebody when that first came in the yard. It was a TRD Prerunner. So someone already snagged the e-locker axle housing, the front clip, and the engine. They left the trans though for some reason. I'm tempted to go back and harvest a few more things off it.

Dome like this:



Interiors are slightly a different color I noticed too. It's hard to tell unless you hold something next to another. My truck is a little more grey/blue and these are grey.

 

Yeah that's the same as my 03, same color too. 99 was the same blue interior as yours. but the map lights from the 4runner were brown, so I used some vinyl spray to dye it black.

 

Yeah there were a few 4runners but most of them were brown haha. All this is going on my black truck so I don't really mind if the color is off a little bit.

 

Special order man

Heeeheee! Im the lucky guy...lol...its solid too

 

Swapped my front diff driver's side needle bearing for an ECGS bushing (with the help of jqueener). Goodbye rumble-strip vibe!

 

You're an auto, so 4.88s

 

Did a oil change with Mobil 1 syn and picked up a drop in k&n off offer up for $20. Then washed and vacuumed the rig just in time for it to rain.

Grill and headlights are next..

 

2001 reg cab 4x2 vibration changed ujoints still there even worse help

 

Ain't gonna happen my man. I'm not designing any more new armor. Time to move on in life.

I don't have any gas tank skids in stock and Fernando is a good guy so I hooked him up with a diff diaper. Won't be making any more though.

 

Looking at getting some icon uca's. Anyone running these? Was just looking for some reviews?... as I see most guys run total chaos or camburgs. Thanks.

 

I totally understand. From what @JLee was saying, fabbing the diff armor is not trivial. I would still like to see if we could generate some interest here in the 1st Gen area for him to do a group buy. Last I heard, he wanted at least twenty commitments before he would start work on them. Seems like there should be at least that many people here that need diff protection.

That said, I am glad that I have the BAMF LCA skids coming any day now. Can't wait!

 

@SUGABEAR-so that's the story on those mats!!! I didn't scroll down to the text below the pic, I missed your comments. Ya buddy let's talk Thursday, but I will probably take them. You da man!

 

Id be in

 

LOL!!!

 

Need more info. Is it in the steering wheel? Feel like from the back?

Could be carrier bearing, warped brakes, wheel bearing..

Need 20 people with 425ish bucks plus shipping..that's not easy to get that many people with that kind of money.

And I think wanted 40 people, not 20...

Defineitly a high number which is unlikely to be met.

Glad I got one when I could

 

x2. Mine definitely has a lot of luv scars on it. Thanks Jerry @JLee

 

Thank you sir

And i thank you again Ryan! Love all my armor

 

I appreciate all your business! Selling armor has been good to me, but I'm not that into it anymore.

 

Dangit...
