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

For first gens?

 

yes.

 

Unless this thread is complete bullshit, the 1st gen units hit the market some time after April 2017.

Looks like JBA started offering these Toyota UCAs in 2015. A bit or a stretch to say they've been around for years.

 

Then what is this guy on about? From reading the thread, it sounds like the 2nd gens came out in 2015 and 1st gens two months ago.

 

were talking about Amazon/ebay arms


edit: nvm. i see the original post was talking about the jba arms. I think

 

...and just to add more confusion to this their website doesn't show availability for Tacoma parts prior to 2005:

 

Umm can you time machine me to after college? That'd be pretty neat.

 

Didn't exactly do much to the truck... but managed to get all the manuals they were going to throw away at work.. pictures to follow once I get to the computer

 

You guys teaming up to make me lose my mind? I was beginning to think I was imagining things.

 

da goods... now to organize them and clean them up a little..

 

IF ONLY! Prius put the filter tucked up between so much misc. there's no room for that trick. Tacoma is much better once you come at it from the right direction. I really need a friend with a lift less than 3 hours away.

 

i seen a link about Amazon ucas and the other guy talking about amazon ucas and everything else went over my head

 

Can I be jealous of another mans literary collection in 2017? SWEET!

 

The only gripe i have about the JBA arms is that the BJ is in plate..which has no folded edges for strength like the LR arms.

There is a reason Camburg and TC use tubing for their UCAs. Or fully boxed.

 

id say i got lucky. makes my life at work easier.. they dont seem to realize our internet is out 40% of the time...(no TIS without it) at least i'll have books to figure stuff out now.
The EWDs are money for me... so many electrical issues coming through lately

 

You got any duplicates you'd be willing to part with? Specifically an EWD for an '02?

 

i have yet to sort through but i doubt it. my father has an 02 so he actually has the one i got today

 

Starting to look archaic compared to the competition. Weird considering they are priced the highest.

 

You should sell me the 93/94 Land Cruiser manuals

 

***if you're considering JBA arms***

Give this a thought. I was in the market for ucas for my 2nd gen when they were released a couple years ago. I was watching their thread pretty closely. They had some MAJOR issues at first. Like, the arms were smashing into the coils buckets and bending them. There is a thread here somewhere.

Now, from what I read they took every action to make things right with their customers and redesigned their products to fix the issues. However, I certainly wouldn't be one of the first to run anything new from them, given that knowledge. Food for thought.
