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

Just rolled over 400,000 miles. Also installed extended travel Kings, TC UCA's, and new LBJ's. End link bushings are next.

 

Post more pics of your truck, I look your file but no albums, nice kings , should be an expensive mod , what on rear shocks ?

 

400K miles and new Kings/Chaos UCAs, etc! Man, your truck loves you my man! That is some high-quality TLC!!

Anything done on your leafs or rear shocks? Looking good!

 

Only that a larger bolt won't fit in the bushings maybe. And that you'll need two people to do the 4 bolts in the cab. Especially the rear ones unless your like Mr. Fantastic and can make your arms grow haha

 

Hell yeah. He would rock the Gen 1 mods.

 

Ha I mean the 2 bolts that hold the bushings on the outside lol. And frame off restro . Por 15 + broken bolts = not good for threads lol

 

Rears are OME Dakars on OME Nitrochargers. With the front riding like it is, it really highlights the shortcomings of the Nitrochargers over high speed bumps. I am contemplating calling Micah @Downsouth Motorsports in a few weeks and getting some Kings with resis for the rear with the correct shaft lengths and extended/compressed measurements after I cycle the rear with the Nitrochargers off. Limit straps, alignment and tires are on the list too. It sits nearly level now, with no adjustments to the Kings yet, waiting for them to settle. Here's a few shots for @Tacoma2015 before can get a build thread up:

 

Gary, I love it. Looks great. I have Kings on my 04 and went with ICON Progressive AALs and Bilstein in the rear. I took out the overload leaf and it rides like a damn dream.

Let me know how you like the King rears.

 

Thanks! Will do.

 

Anybody have a helpful link on how to disable the ABS? Shit keeps kicking in every time i brake.

Mid way down from the post.

Big fuse is bolted in.

 

Thought it was just the fuse. But I know @cynicalrider did it a little while ago

edit: speak of the devil and he shall appear

 

Hey Fernando,

Honest post, not being an ass: why would you want this? Isn't ABS there to kick in when you need it? Or is it detrimental off-road?

Thanks for the education.

 

Thank you sir

Well its kicking in everytime i stop for one. And when im out playing in the snow it can be a real bitch

 

Gotcha. Thanks. Not too much snow here in Houston.

Man, forget the ABS mod, just move down here! 75 degrees all next week

Good Luck with the new mod.

 

I hate you....lol..its freezing balls today.

 

Red and tacky ok on the bushings on camburgs?

 

No. Regular grease doesn't go well with poly bushings.

I use SuperLube. There's a few others that I've read work well too.

 

Cool...thanks man. Ill pick up a new gun and some of that.


Really hope these fuckers didnt use it already....i see red grease on the zerks

 

Got my TW sticker toady! Now to decide where to put it and flaunt my goods to all the members without.
