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

I just ordered one off Amazon.. OEM for ~$65

 

Anyone know of cheap seat covers for the 60/40 bench seats that are separate so you have basically two car seat covers? Thinking about adding my old ones to my classroom to have a chill reading area. Need some seat covers to make them look presentable though!

 

Too hot...my buddy actually goes to school at GCU down there and has a small offroad group he wheels with all over

 

Dang it was 98 when I checked out here today!

 

I order 2 for 16$. I know they won't last but if they last a couple weeks Atleast it'll be good enough for me.

 

I thought I'd be baking but I was out working on the truck when it was 95 earlier today. Getting used to it faster than I thought.

 

Dry heat is a lot more bearable than the temperate climates' humidity & heat that we're from - heat exposure on the other hand can creep up more easily - found that out last year hiking in San Diego county

 

Wait till next summer when it gets 120.

 

Haha that's when I work in the A/C in the garage.

 

I've done my front doors with GTMat and RamAudio foam. Just doing that made a huge difference. I also insulated the back of the kick panels and coated the back of the door panels with bed liner spray. Doing the rear doors and back of the cab next.
Sprayed seams with bedliner spray.

 

Even though it’s crappy pic making the lights look super blue...I tested out the bat signal

 

When it hit's anything over 110 it's a whole different kinda heat.

 

Tell me your secret! That's amazing looking, I need to do this as well

 

Honestly the secret really is the trim restorer. Once I degreased everything and brushed/wiped away all the gunk and oil and grease the engine bay was clean but not new looking. After you hit all the plastic and rubber with the restorer everything look shinny and new. Make sure to wipe any extra off though otherwise it’s just a dust magnet.

 

I plan on doing this... also in my dash area, which has tons of rattles. some day lol

 

Nice!! Waiting on mine

 

Its free and easy for me to do thanks.

 

So 4wheel drive parts did it again. I was washing my truck yesterday, and I realized that the rim I bought from them has a bigger lip. I think they gave me the wrong backspacing. Shouldn't that affect my handling?

 

it can. Especially if it's on the front.

 

Easy fix that I learned long ago: don't buy stuff from 4 wheel parts.
