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

If larger tires are your biggest worry then that's no problem for the s/c. I felt I definitely needed it after I put my front plate bumper on, along with the RTT and rack on the bed.

 

Welcome to TW!

I concur completely, love that shit. Durable AF

 

Story of my Tacoma life

 

I thought this was hilarious...don't know why but it was.

 

Hey all....First time posted long time lurker... I have been working on a 1999 Tacoma 4X4 3.4l build and looking at mounting some off road light and some additional electrical accessories.... I have seen multiple threads on 2-3rd gens fuse and relay mods but nothing on first gens...any of you got something you have done and works well with the limited space on driver side I would prefer to not have to use the passenger side of the engine bay.... since the battery and current power is ran through the driverside already?

 

I've heard they're awesome. the problemo is a lot of folks bitch and whine about supercharging our trucks that usually are (unless your a lucky duck) higher mileage. I personally don't think this is true and would happily SC my 156K rig, but I had a spark plug blow out of its tube, had to heli-coil it, so its a rebuilt head for me before SC

my good buddy on here did the 2nd gen SC group buy, saved a shit ton but spent a shit ton...if they did one for the 1st gen, I might have some issues. As in, If I had more than a couple beers and happened to stumble into that GB.. I'd might as well set up my cardboard sleeping arrangements right then

 

yeah I noticed that right after I posted.... so I have the blue sea breaker and fuseblock already and hella relay blocks...plus everything else I would need I'm really looking for ideas on how to mount it...

 

BUSS Box 5 relay, 10 fuses.

 

I like it... but the 1999 has a bunch of bull shit right there.... did you move it or is the 02 empty there?

 

Pretty sure it's the same, I even had less room because I'm a manual. Fit very nicely but not with much room to spare.

Here it is unmounted

 

Look at my build...page 7, I have the same Bussman setup you can see it on the drivers side firewall near my second battery

 

They moved the charcoal canister and evap stuff somewhere around '02. I don't think there was any consistency though to when they made the charge.

I have the same junk there too on my '01.

 

Oh yeah, I forget about the small differences between years on our engines.

 

I like it but want it closer....I might have to swap and do the bussman set up off the fire wall that might have to just work.... think there is enough room right next to the driverside hood strut for the bussman

 

Welcome to TW...officially

 

Thanks Man! Been lurking for a while, I was just in Maui and was blown away by the number of Tacos over there!

 

Hope you had a good time! Love Maui, my wife grew up over there....and yes it's the "state" truck

 

It was sweet lots of surfing sand and suds... minus the cheese grader lava rock incident on day 3.... it looks better now wish I would have grabbed photos day of...
