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

Haha! Hammerdown!

 

So here is a few vids on my grounds on the wiring harness (continuity test) . I don’t know if all plugs need to be grounded or what but this is what I have. Three on the driver side and four on the passenger side.

Any one know which ones are suppose to be grounded?

 

You're having a power backfeeding issue but it could be from the front too since you mentioned having changed that. The dimness suggest a backfeeding though, check your corner marker turn signal things for poor grounds.

 

Ok.

 

Did a little painting on the wheels of the taco. Not the best pics here but I’m very pleased how they are turning out. I’ll post up better ones after it’s all done.

 

They are heavy and the sidewalls are stiffer than the km2s. Will take a little getting used to.

 

Pretty much sums up my day

I don’t know why there’s stars

 

Headlight upgrade.





Relatively Cheap upgrade that looks much better.

 

What light bar brackets do you have

 

Rago Fabrication Low Pro 42” Curved mounts.

 

Thanks man

 

Went and tightened my throttle cables today. Drove to the dump and realized my cruise control is now out. Should the cruise cable have more slack? Just posting my picture from yesterday as a reference. Cable leading to the left goes to cruise control. Cable on the bottom goes to gas. Cable flailing about unconnected appears to be the trans.

Finally got all the parts (replacement clips for the fender flare that you will break) and tools (83mm hole saw) collected for the job and installed the Safari Snorkel. Took Way longer than the 120 minutes the instructions indicated mostly due to removing the corroded antenna (finally beat the crap out of it back down through the fender). I crafted an antenna delete plug until I get a replacement (might not). Cooler and cleaner intake air is now a thing for us. Obligatory cat supervisor pic at the end.

 

Very nice! you have my dream build almost... what is the make/model of that camper? Looks like an ARE but I can't tell for sure. I really want that Hi-topper with side access.

 

It is a snugtop Hi-Liner. Huge POS! Buy anything but this shell.

 

Alright, lol. I was hoping it was good, but I'll avoid it.

 

Got around to doing tundra brake upgrade.

 

Need 6 ton jack stands to replace rear end, my 3 tons are too short

 

I'm not sure how much droop you have but even my 6tons were too short on my truck unless I had them dangerously far forward.

 

I'm trying to put the stands on the frame. I can remove the tires but that will lower it a bit. Need it a bit higher than its current, stock height.
