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

Thanks buddy.

 

Went to the Alaska 4x4 Meet and Greet. Drove most of the course in my truck except for this mud pit. This is from the finale.
Teaser of the videos to come.

 

Got my switches installed

Clean. Looks good!

 

BOUGHT A GOFSR RTT!! can you tell im STOKED!?

 

I have a question about tires and wheel sizes. I have a 2004 Tacoma Doublecab Prerunner and I want to get a 2 inch lift in the rear and a 3 inch lift in the front. After that I want to get 17x9 wheels with 285/70 r17 Mastercraft Courser MXT Tires. Will I have to cut any for them to fit and will they rub?

 

Only one way to find out!!!

 

Test Fitted New A-P Rear Wrap before powder coating.
Hopefully there will be more clearance than .1mm between the panels and the bar that runs from the wrap to the mount panel once everything is tightened on.

Put blackout taillights on my truck today. Thought it would look weird but it actually looks fine.

I have a question - am trying to figure out why my radio will not work. The factory radio is in the truck. Have replaced the fuses that might affect it, but my A/C, dome light, cigarette lighter all work fine. I have a 1999 Toyota Tacoma. Can anyone help me troubleshoot this?

 

It could have just died mine did last summer

 

Blacked out tail lights will mess up your radio... replace them with the clear ones and it should work better then ever!

 

Painted the intake plenums a few weeks back with Aluma Blast

Finished the rear axles, new bearings, wheel cylinders, backing plates, shoes, seals, etc

 

Where did you get that grille at? It looks sick

 

Your engine bay is so......so...clean

 

Are all our rear axle shafts the same? IE same length passenger to driver. Any difference between Elocker and non elocker shafts?

 

Thanks, it's getting there still some work to do on replacing a few more ugly looking parts

 

I got it from @DBCustomzFab Talk to Danny. He's a great guy and can make you just about any custom one off grill you want. I'm very happy w/ mine but I wish I would've got the grill he makes w/ the pod cut outs. https://instagram.com/p/BCtM9kHP8VD/

 

Pretty sure the elocker shafts are different from the non elocker. I think the sealing surface is in a different area.. but dont quote me on that.

 

I know the 3rds are different through the mounting surface. Just curious about the shafts whether one is longer or shorter. Hoping the stock shafts hold up to 37s but want to pick up a spare one and make sure it fits both sides and see what I have to pull it out of.
