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

Is this the same kit without painted calipers for $276?

FRONT OE [2] Calipers + [2] Drilled/Slotted Rotors + Quiet Low Dust [4] Ceramic Pads Kit

It sure looks like it. Description says 13WL casting for the calipers so it should be the same

 

pretty good price on some ss brake lines on autoanything.com

 

Thanks for the input. Went with the $320 kit..can't wait. Still have my stock rotors with 120k on them. Hopefully this feels like a night and day difference.

Finally painted my grille

 

Installed a driver side bucket seat and center console from a 1990 4Runner.

 

What's the process in that? My 92 HoRunner has much better seats than mine. Thinking about swapping if it's fairly easy

 

You will have to bend the front inner tab up slightly. Then drill two new holes for the rear tabs. Attach the seatbelt bracket from the 4Runner to the transmission tunnel where the inside rear factory bolt hole was.
Done.

 

I'll look into it when I actually get it back

 

Oh you'll feel it.
Lets just say they stop my 35s far better than the stock brakes stopped my 33s

 

Would be cool......

 

Swingout in process . Back surgery iinthe morning. Should be done after recovery! Oooraah!

 

Any reason these won't work with my 6 lug Tacoma ? They won't pop up when I look under my specific truck ? http://www.discounttiredirect.com/d...bmitProductSize.do?pc=16131&tmn=MK6&typ=Truck

 

Those are the wrong bolt pattern, you need 6x139.7

Thanks for catching that . And this is why I double check with the Internet lol

 

There is also an offset difference between those two wheels. The ones @drr listed will stick out a little bit further. Almost 1/2".

 

All about the stance lol that should help with rubbing though correct ? I'll probably still have to run 1.25 spacers though

 

Sometimes it's necessary to push the tire far enough away from UCA's and spindle / brake components so that people don't have to run spacers.

 

I have LR UCA's so maybe I'll get lucky .

 

You should be good depending on what tires you go with - I'll likely have to run some spacers with my 285's on 4.3 backspaced wheels with TC uca's.
