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

I have to say, this blue really did grow on me when i saw that wrecked xtended cab at the salvage yard.

 

It's weird how it shows up on camera, it's not as blue as a blue pickup interior bit it's not quite grey either. I don't mind it but I kinda miss my tan interior too

 

Do your husky mats leak water on the door side? After I go play in the snow the carpet under the mats usually soaked, even if I kick off my boots (I try to drain them when I remember), kinda lame...

 

Thats interesting, maybe its because the forum settings I have it on makes it blue. Your center console doesn't look like it matches.

 

My truck is a mess of parts haha, the center console came from my rolled truck (tan) so did the manual shift boots since this truck was originally an auto. Even all the HVAC tubes are from my old truck haha.

 

Oh no. One of my favorite trucks on here.

Glad you’re okay man.

 

Nah, they have a pretty good bend in them to prevent that, I drain them if I've been in heavy snow but they're pretty good.

 

Anybody interested in the body bushings? I'm not gonna post about them in here again but they are still available

 

Which trucks will they work with again?

 

Glad to hear about you and yours.

Countdown to the TW vultures circling your truck in 3...2....1....

 

All extra cab first gen's AFAIK.

Sale pending.

 

The apron is replaceable just like the radiator support, it spot welds onto the cab not that hard to replace.

 

Hmm can you buy it for a reasonable price?

 

I really can’t remember, done one on an fj awhile back done a radiator support, apron, fender and the hood and it was a decent estimate but it was all oe. I’m sure you could get it aftermarket though

 

What year fj?

See from what i remember from tubing the firewall is its continuous. No spot welds anywhere. Was like an early unibody

 

If i remember correctly on our truck there may be like 4 bolts into the firewall and the rest will be a couple spot welds

 

Huh I'll have to look. Be a total bitch to do that though..haha lot of stuff attached to that part

 

It was a newer one, it was yellow i wanna say a 12 or 13

 

Yeah that’s the only bad part about any sheet metal in the front end is the shit you gotta take off to replace it

 

Yeah the whole radiator and ac stuff if you do the core support and then a ton of wiring and other shit on the wheel well.
