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

Thought I'd post my bucket seat swap with center console and 8"sub

 

Nice work. Seems like the kind of thing you'd see in this thread. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/your-unique-mod-on-the-1st-gens.118241/

 

What are the seats from?

 

I've been trying to get a custom DBZ grill from those guys. Do you have a contact email or phone number I can try?

 

The outer boot has not been my friend either, some of the clamps I got came with the poly boots from offroad solutions. the rest I got off Amazon made by uxcell. The ones from amazon seem alot beefier. I did the boot slide for the inner boot because thats where I had the recurring boot ripping. you're also going to need a set of decent cv boot clamp pliers with these clamps but they work a hell of alot better than the cheap clamps from the auto parts store. The allpro boot is the same as the porsche boots that some people use, I've haven't heard too many complaints about em so they must work.

 

Paint day was successful!
The underbelly is officially bulletproof

Had to cut a little out of the skids to make sure the lca skids swing freely
I might need to upgrade to a heavier coil down the line. maybe after the winch completely maxes out my front weight capacity
And I'm waiting till after the tundra brake swap to paint the letters on the BAMF skids to match the calipers

 

That pretty much sums up what I'm going for, ultimately! I'm looking more for the capability of a SAS rig when I need it, not necessarily to go looking for stuff to crawl. If that capability gets my ass out of a bad situation, then it's served its purpose.

 

that is exactly what pushed me to take the plunge.

 

Finally got her repainted, took over a month to finally get this done. Anywho, she's looking good.

 

Looks gorgeous.

 

This was a couple days ago but went wheelin near stokes

 

Nice what's the color and what'd you use?

 

thanks, Its called Sterling Grey Metallic paint code UJ it's a solvent based paint. better than the blue it had before.

 

This is what it looked like when i first got it. i'm making small progressions .

 

Please, that's nothing.

I am glad you got rid of the powder blue.

 

yea, you win lol. at least yours wasn't sky blue lol

 

This should have been a factory color option.

 

I liked the blue

 

I think I like it best when I pull up first to a red light so all the on coming traffic also stopped at the light gets to see my truck sitting waiting for the green light.

 

Some trail gear 1.5 spacers and some deaver j59s where added to the rig just in time for summer. Ready for tube doors again
Oh.. And supercharger installed
