What's your wheel/tire/suspension set up? This looks awesome.

 

I thought I included the pics the first time lol. I wanted to go with a tall skinny tire. They work really well in our hard clay mud and rock.

 

Hankook MTs 33x12.50 15s on some 15 steelies and uniball UCAs and icons up front

 

Wow! That is one clean truck. Very nice.

 

Thanks! I really appreciate that. My son and I have many hours of blood sweat and tears in it lol. I'm very sad to have to let it go. First gen tacomas are very special to me in that they are the last of the true compact steel trucks made in the usa. That 3.4 might not be sexy or exciting but wow! it is one durable well built motor and I think it is well balanced to the size and weight of the first gen truck.

 

Wait, you're selling it?

 

Ya, I am selling it. I don't want to distract from the intended purpose of this thread though. PM me if you have any interest.

 

Hang around long enough to gets your post count to the minimum requirement and make a FS thread. Should go quick. Good luck.

 

Ya, I'm usually just the type to read things on these forums but I feel that with my experience working on Toyota that I might be able to offer some help or ideas to someone looking to make their own first gen. I have definitely learned a lot from these forums and its members taking the time to make postings and pics.

Did some zippin around the Chiricahua mountains past few days

 

Work in progress. Just finishing up odds and ends from the sas.

 

Pretty

Mine is exact opposite of yours

I have the least expensive configuration of 1st gen

 

Im the same way, i went out of my way to buy a least expensive 1st get taco which in reality costs the same as a v6 model with comparable mileage. Dang these trucks hold their value no matter what model you get!

 

Really nice lights. Do you find yourself having to clean the dirt off the bulbs to keep the light shining bright?
