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

They came black

 

Tundra brakes are installed, bled and broken in.

 

So here's a list of stuff I'm going to replace when I do my PreRunner 4x4 swap - am I missing any seals or anything? Might as well do some other preventative maintenance while I have the transmission out.

 

Got new raceline wheels!

 

Just completed the drop kit deletion.
Removed rear lowering blocks and replaced the cut front coil springs. Plus added a 1.5 leveling kit to the front and new shocks all around! Finally rides like a truck should! No more bottoming out!!

This was last weekends project. Bucket seat swap!! Donor Tacoma was an 00. Only holes I had to drill and use a nut from underneath were both rear inside seat mounts on the tunnel and the mounts for the center console.
Now I am on the hunt for the forward section of the console (for around the shifter) as my donor was an Automatic!!
These seat at 100x better than the old bench.
PS the bucket seat belt buckles work great with the stock belt too. Bonus!

 

Haha definitely took more than a day to get it all clean though lol

 

Welcome to the Raceline fam!

 

I guess I'm just used to prices around here. I paid 6k for my 96 with 225k miles on it 6 years ago

 

Thanks! I’ve been checking em out for a while and finally pulled the trigger. They are off getting painted right now

 

What color you going with?

I just got mine on last week! I need to get a straight on sideways pic lol

 

Looks good! Hahah well you can still kinda see em in that pic. What size tires?


And Im go with a purple similar to this. And then eventually the whole truck will be the charcoal color that the front end is painted

 

This today

 

Is that the Callahan brake kit? What’d you paint your frame with? Looks good man!

 

Yes it’s the Callahan brake kit from Amazon and I just used flat black spray paint.. just need to install new dust cover I found on the DIY mods.

 

Do the bigger fender flares 01-04ish I think, if the 98-00 year models?

I know I can do a search but I’d just really don’t want to put in that effort.

 

Fair enough

 

From what I’ve skimmed through, the bigger fender flares will fit, but on the newer trucks the clips add more support.

Correct me if I’m wrong.

 

What a dick
