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

Working on that. I have AP standards right now, swapping them for expos in the next week or two.

 

Well, yeah. The sheer EAFness pulls mad bitches.

 

It's all based on the ratio of truck to tire size. Smaller truck but bigger tires = mad bitches... big ass truck and only medium or big tires = less bitches. The bigger the wheel gets though, the more the quality of bitches drops

 

Fender delete lmao. And new product testing.

Also 1st gen buds got my black Friday sale going on crothmetalworks.com for 25% off!

 

All I can say is WOW, excellent job!

Welcome to the 1st gen thread! Nice truck!

 

Thanks @Bulldogs129

 

Mine next right?

 

How much for the fender delete?

Also, there's a long list of sales in the first post here:

Added you to it @Croth51

 

Took one of my boys in the hills to avoid crazy people shopping.

 

Doing some front end maintenance on my LT taco. Short list is new Oem roller rack, oem ps pump, oem lower ball joints (thanks @gunny1005), B&m PS cooler, rebuild & revalve fox 2.5 coil overs, TC cam tab install, reboot driver axle, reseal oil pan gasket/add turbo oil return fitting (just cuz I'm here, not going turbo any time soon). More pics and possibly farther down the rabbit hole tomorrow.

 

Good thing you caught that lca mount!

 

One thing leads to another @Dalandser

What did It take to run the 2nd gen axle? Or am I messed up somewhere?

 

It's not on my truck yet. If you wanted to run it with soa, you'd just have to do brake lines, e brake, add some shock mounts, and remount the leaf perches. This one is set up for spring under and I have springs for that, but I'll probably have to remount the leaf perches and shock mounts.

 

What about like gearing and such? I don’t know much about how that works.

 

All the ratios for first gens are available for second gens - if you find one that matches your front, you're all set. I'm regearing so it kind of doesn't make too much difference for me. A lot of guys do the swap with first gen tundra axles. I would have, but I got the whole thing for $150 and the axle seals are a little more dependable / user friendly to work on yourself.

 

Didn’t know that, a wider axle would be nice for stuff like the solo motor sports relocation kit. Guess I’ll have to look into if I ever get to where I can buy stuff for my truck...

Thank you sir.

 

(that's "soda" lol)
