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

The Yamaha is a wr450, it’s my buddies. The other one hiding is mine it’s a Super Sherpa.

 

Fuse box and relay or just fuse box?

 

Fuse box, power distribution, and relay control. It's my power window/lock/mirror control retrofit system.

 

Put a stock bumper on temporarily while I paint and fix the plate bumper

 

What broke?

 

I already have one in my truck. But I'll take it off your hands if you want

Color doesn't matter.

Or if you want to pass it on/sell it to someone else, by all means.

 

Been working on the taco all weekend, got er wrapped up this morn'

Saturday and today I finally did a valve cover replacement job and spark plugs / wires.


Full wright up in my build thread:https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/neontacos-build-log.529039/page-2#post-17011786

 

How much? Next in line probably

 

That's better.



Obligatory pun.

 

Nothing broke , it’s just starting to rust in some places and I want to clean up the wiring for the lights

 

All done. For some reason out of the four systems I've built so far, the master controller passenger window switch down function is always broken on two of the systems I've made. Always have to order a new one. Luckily I keep two extra doors to test everything with.

Let me know if anyone wants power windows, locks, or mirrors. I make plug n play harnesses for all first gens.

 

That's cool looks like it's laid out nicely. How're the horns coming?

 

Ordered more wire and relays - it's going to take forever to make 16 harnesses. Think I'm going to upgrade my sand blaster my old plastic one isn't cutting it.

 

Assembly line em, anytime I have to do more than two of something, I get it all laid out and do the same step down the line come back and do the next thing down the line. Helps get it done quickly so you're not switching tools and such all the time.

 

Cutting the wires to length is honestly the most monotonous part of the whole thing. Made this cool wire rack out of the budget lumber at Home Depot when I found out professional wire racks are like $100.

 

fast way for cutting wire lengths is buying some 1'' PVC or 1/2'' and cut it to the length the wire needs to be. Then thread the wires you need through and cut them all.

 

use a cutter like that and you could do a lot of cables at once.

cut notches in the end of the pipe to hold the ends of the wires.

 

Mounted my light bar up front. Just need to wire it up.
