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

Getting that top bellhousing bolt is fun.

That is almost five feet of extensions.

 

Got pod?
I didn’t realize how big these things are.

 

yeah they aren't your typical smaller pods.

You'll like them though.

 

I’m excited, the estimated ships are was from Jan. 13 to Fed. 13 so kinda a surprise to come home to them. Trying to decide if I wanna put them on tonight or not.

 

And tips on getting the windshield wipers off??? I got the nut off but they won’t budge.

 

just keep pulling




try prying on the back side a little bit

 

Also flip the main section of the wiper away (up) from the windshield so the spring tension is off the bolt

 

They feel like they’re gonna break. I’m gonna assume they’ve never been removed. Thing a little shock therapy from a rubber mallet would help?

Pretty bad when you can’t get past step 1.

 

Which fumoto is best?

$37 F103N with LC-10 lever clip FN-Series Engine Oil Drain Valve, 1 Pack

F103N? assuming I have skids that is, looks like the

$37 F103S LC-10 Lever Clip FS-Series Engine Oil Drain Valve, 1 Pack

F103S would be best since its short but idk

 

Stupid idiot me. I got em.
Hint #1: Quit bein a little bitch.

 

Hate the feeling when you get a false start on a project. Was all set to do cruiser front brakes and found out I was missing a 54mm socket :/

 

Grinder with cutting wheel. Works every time.

 

For every mod we do there should be a grinder with a cutting disc by our side

 

That's a huge socket

 

Yeah it sets the preload for the hub bearings, big bearings equals huge nut haha

 

I just googled it. I figured it had to be that. No way there was a bolt that big on any passenger vehicle brakes haha

 

Can't change the rotor without it tho which is annoying.

 

That sucks. What year cruiser?

 

93

 

If I had read your profile haha

Looking at trying to track a Hundy down, but they are rare
