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

I plan on driving to Denver for a CVJ reman!

 

Lift has nothing to do with fitting a tire on ifs. The travel range is the same just changes ride height

 

AEM 320lph fuel pump install (works for OEM just don't modify anything)


Step 1. lift bed for fuel tank access (bed bolts 17mm x4-6 depending on model)

Step 2. fourwheeler tires. (prop it up)

Step 3. Assort and remember connector and pipe locations

Step 4. Undo pump bolts (8mm x8)

Step 5. Here's what you're after.

New AEM next to smol Toyota

Step 6. Undo this/these


Step 7. wiggle pump from grommet

Step 8. Fully remove smol Yota

AEM connector

Step 9. adapt to Yota connector (I simply removed the Toyota wires and soldered to the left over crimps and shoved it all back into the plug) (AEM install only)


Step 10. Modify pickup as necessary, and file down any burrs. (also blow through the tube to rid it of any metal dust) (AEM install only)

Step 11. Install AEM to toyota connector and tighten worm clamps. (AEM install only) I had to modify the AEM grommet to fit the tacoma pump bracket.

Step 12. Install AEM pre filter (AEM install only...obviously)
Step 13. Reassembly is reverse of removal.

Made it home, no fires!!

There have been some killer deals on take off nittos from trd 4runners. There was one set for $400. But they are 17s...... what size are your wheels?

 

Then the only logical choice is 35s.

 

I was thinking might as well just cut it all and sas with 40s.

 

Obviously.

Keep us posted.

 

Nice!

You have a lot of detail on this, did you put this in a thread all it own as well?

 

The 98-00 thread he did

 

Someone give me some input on what wheels to go with about to buy a new set...should i get fj trails? Or the other trd bronze wheels? Truck is the gold/sandstone color. Anyone know how well the bronze wheels match the paint?

Also ran across these thought they looked different anyone on here ever run these?

 

Anyone ever run cooper st maxx's?

 

That offset doesnt look right.....

I like your style

 

I'm running the maxx's, been liking them so far. So much quieter than my old tires. Had them on one wheeling trip and they did great too. Only been running them for a couple thousand miles though.

 

Yeah I wish

 

Nor the bolt pattern

 

Yup Check the 1st gen front page

 

I can't get the same deal on 32" as 31", I'll just see what happens.

 

Have about 35,000 miles on mine and for everything I have seen you do they will be perfect.
