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

Great Videos, get some Rain X Windshield Washer Fluid.

 

Lol you were lucky af on that last pull. Where was that? Looked like fun.

Back in high school my friends and I got stuck like that out in the woods w/ no recovery gear. Luckily it was on a hillside and we had to dig a trench with sticks and a million mosquitoes to drain the puddle / mud like a bunch of cavemen (actually they would have been smarter than us and fashioned some kickass tools).

 

Installed rear Kings to replace my broken shocks. Bought front Kings as well since i looked at the front struts and the lower bushings are blown.

 

Top of a mountain in Alaska. We had dug it out a lot, took about 4 hours from drive in to drive out.

 

no expense spared. everyone knows kings haul bitches.

 

Red&Cayote Lake trails ton of rigs hella good shows

 

Almost got all the sanding done. Just gotta pull the bed and do where I couldn't reach and some other small minor things...

Loooks like shit but hopefully it turns out good.

Also, my tires stick out like 1.5 inches without the flares...
Is that what "the kids" are calling the stance game?

 

When you're just a broke college student with a jeep bumper laying around you make due

 

What tire size are those?

 

37s not over killed

 

Thought they look huge lol
Nice job fitting them

 

Looks pretty good to me, does it tie into the frame well? More pics?

 

Just used the pre existing holes and ran bolts through, it'll make due for now until I get a winch plate then I'm going to weld it on for more support, still have to get some more pipe and get it to be flush under the fender

 

Well that's convenient, Jeeps must have similar width frames.

Just a tip though, I'd weld on support plates to the bumper that you can line up with frame holes and more securely bolt the bumper on rather than have it permanently stuck on, plus you don't have much surface for only a frame weld to hold the forces of winching.

 

Yeah I was thinking about adding some more to be able to mount to the original bumper mounts and give it more strength

 

Down here in Texas, it called Mexi-Poke.
Looks good tho. I will be doing the liner spray to my truck as well but with less body work and prep.

 

I might be over prepping I dunno. I just want it to turn out Atleast half way decent.

What brand are you gonna use?

 

I will be using the rustoleum bedliner in spray can form. I have used a couple cans on my bed and like how it comes out. Thin and consistent (as long as I take my time).
It's been raining down here so I haven't finished my bed.

 

New paint and Did an oil change for the TRD supercharger at 35,000 miles and added a butt screw to the top of the supercharger nose housing for an easier change next time, so will not have to take the snout off again,
You would think I would have done this years ago

 

Just make sure to wipe it down really good with some all prep or something similar and then use a tac cloth(s) to get it real clean after taping it off. Try not to touch it to much after that and take your time painting it.
