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

Nice! You where still on 4.10s right? Man oh man. You thought your truck was fast before...gonna burn all 4 tires now easily.

 

Anybody cut just like an inch off the flat part on your coils to slightly drop ride height. King 18" 600lb. Trying to drop just a tad.....

 

Already put 4.88 and ARB in rear. Was running w/o my front ds so it'll be nice to get my 4x4 back.....yeah, way more torque and tire spin.

 

No. Wouldn't do that.

Could always go to a 16". Did you try compleletly in preloaded yet? How those are supposed to sit.

 

I'm in the middle of putting them back together right now. I had to redo the resi out puts. Figured while I had the front diff out and everything dropped I do the shocks, bumps, and relocated my limit straps

 

i drove mine over 300,000 miles

 

What do the regular kings come with? I like the 600 that they came with. But a tad bit longer would be sweet to bring that front up

 

Congratulations! And I dig the truck. The decals and w/e those things atop the bed are called really work for me.

 

it's a headache rack i got from gorino i think it was like $250 or something. thank you it.

 

Usually 600x14".

Be stupid to fit a 16" spring. Could get a custom eibach 15" one made.

 

I have the push button and literally nothing happens when I push the button now, no flashing on the dash and no noise from the actuators...

 

You must have a bad connection somewhere, sounds like the switch is faulty or you're not getting power to it.

 

That's what I was leaning towards, guess I just have to start digging into it. Never been a fan of electronically controlled t cases.

 

Have you checked the connector on the add accuator? Could be loose or have dirt/ grime on the terminals. mine came loose once and i had a similar situation.
From there you could have issues either in the accuator itself or maybe upstream in teh wire harness.

 

Might not be the t-case, could only be at the diff. Try putting it in 4wd and see if the front driveshaft spins.

I had the same nothing-happens-when-pressed issue. Ended up being the ADD actuator. But here try this. Start the truck up (or just accessory works, but either way) and press the 4WD button. Now go underneath the truck and disconnect the plug for the ADD actuator. Do you hear the t-case actuator function?

 

So when I unplugged the add the actuator on the t-case made noise and engaged, bad ADD then?

 

Actually the motor works less hard as the filter gets plugged. The result is less air is moved.

 

That's what it sounds like to me. When I had the font unplugged, I could actually press the button on and off and engage and disengage the t-case. And if I unplugged the t-case one, the 4x4 light blinked, indicating an issue.

 

Right on thanks for this I really appreciate the help! Thanks to all of you who offered advice on this.
