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

I already have play from a bad steering rack. i'll try this method

 

@Blackdawg

Monte, Do these have a steering box? Or is it just a steering rack? I'm trying to place an order but I'm coming up with a steering rack

 

I was literally about to go..wtf haha

Only steering racks man. The early trucks used steering boxes.

 

ok, I'm ordering my rack right now thru Camelback. If it completely took a shit I would lose my steering right?

 

.

not necessarily, unless something actually broke apart, like the itr which has an extremely tiny connection.
If it leaks, you just have to muscle it more. If it's worn out, it'll be all over the road

 

ok. its all over the road

355 for a new rack. not bad

 

Where the hell did you find an OEM rack for $355? You get a 5 lugger rack or something? The cheapest you can find is like $550 from what I've seen.

 

So many in the Colorado BS thread led me away from running 32x11.5 r15 on my stock 15x7" rims.

 

Whoa..are you sure it's a 4wd one?? That's cheap as hell.

Nah would have been fine.

 

You asked in the wrong thread man, the 1st gen brain trust is over here.
Although it may have had to do with larger diameter and stock backspacing along with no spacers.

 

Nah plenty of trucks have run that size on stock wheels. UCA clearance is tight but doesn't rub.

 

I know, but whoever told him that may not have been aware. We have a few questionable "advisors" over there.

 

Ahh gotcha.

 

damn lady gave me the wrong part number. its $557. Well, I could go get one from the junk yard. or, cry once and do it right

 

Yeah got to get components at least for the fronts if you have the stock tweeters. I just have a thing against pioneer, however the new head unit will do wonders alone.

 

What about a remanufactured oem rack from CVJ? Think that would save you a few bucks. Of course a brand new oem one would be ideal. I need a new one too.

 

I just replaced the little speakers in the back with the new ones because they were easy. Probably not gonna do anything with the bigger ones

 

Hey man, I think Santa may have brought you the wrong model of that ARB compressor. There are two versions of the dual compressor. Our trucks require the 12 volt version. The 24 volt version wont work with our 12 volt systems.

 

CVJ is under $400. but I have to send mine back and pay for shipping too. Might as well just go with a new one. I don't have to send Toyota my old one

 

I went with a sony mex xb100bt
killer head unit
