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

The largest capacity battery that will fit in the stock location with the stock tie down is a group 24F.

 

Planning on putting my flares back on, anyone have any suggestions on how to prevent the nasty line they make on the body? The oem rubber trim doesnt seem to help.

 

The cooling vanes are not as smooth on the the factory rotors.

There’s not a big price difference on factory rotors & pads vs autoparts stores.

What always makes me think...why people buy new factory rotors and rebuilt calipers ...the main piece to the system.

I definitely agree, there’s no sub for Toyota quality . I just didn’t have $1,000-1,200 to buy new rotors, pads & calipers from Toyota.

 

Me either, ill be going to NAPA.

 

Hey everyone. I’m new to the site and just wanted to introduce myself. This is my 04 trd and I also own a 2017 limited

Welcome! It’s good to have you in the 1st gen thread

 

Just got a 2002 4x4 that runs strong but cosmetically needing work.

 

That’s the interior. We cleaned it and I think got out 10lbs of dirt.

 

Interior looks clean, did you get a good deal on it? A drop in bed-liner will do wonders for the back

 

its a slamming deal considering it has new shocks, rack, tires, a sweet maintenance history and is from a small town where I worked for a couple years. I drove it back to my house for 100 miles going on I-76 going 85 mph. It’s solid. I’m throwing in a new/used tailgate I found cheap, bed liner, window sill trim, new passenger mirror, center cap and rear bumper. Then it should be restored.

 

My F250 (crew cab with cloth interior) was previously owned by a stone mason. Stone dust, cement dust, decomposed granite dust, brick dust, sawdust....!
Was still getting dust out of it when I sold it. Couldn't shampoo for fear of turning dust to cement in the carpet.

 

Funny that reminded you of that. I think a landscape company was an owner. It’s gotten clean enough. And they didn’t smoke which is good.

 

I figured the F250 was & always would be a working truck, so I managed to get it 'clean enough' for an honest working truck.
