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

@Speedytech7 how's the transplant going?

 

Okay just read. It needs to be Carb Certified, and then you have to take it to be Re-Smogged to be legal. Some adjustments to the fuel delivery system to make it pass emissions.

 

You can park the 1st gen at my house. I'll keep it safe

 

2nd gen? When did that happen?

Yeah i love it. Great to have 3 haha

Seal is pretty easy. Bearing...not so much. Thats a full diff tear down and rebuild.

Jesus how long have you been gone? he finished that ages ago. Already been wheeling with it

I will never forgive you if you do that.

 

how is it possible to love a 3rd gen?

lol how? by claiming it as your new truck?

 

Baby sit it..for free.

Indefinitely

 

Which one haha, bed is back on mine, just gotta throw some bolts in it. Shocks are on order. Decided I'd rather have kings than rebuilt FOAs.

 

How do you pick which to drive?! The 2nd gen is Jessica's. DCLB. Nothing fancy, basically stock.

glad to see him back on the road alive and well! Looks great @Speedytech7

Exactly.

 

Are you planning on keeping both ? I've missed a bit it would seem! Kings or ADS, I wouldn't mess with anything else if I were to do it again. Although I hear phenomenal things about the BP51s, don't think they have anything for us.

 

My rear shock stuff is all custom. I have a feeling last we talked j had just rolled, I have been wheeling this new truck for a couple months now and just getting back to modding, basically all caught up.

 

Unfortunately it would have to be certified by the CA CARB agency to be legal, most turbos are not.

 

Good man

Have to redo your locations now though?

 

Ahhhhh! Good for you. New truck looks awesome! Do you still have that LC? or was that someone else.

180k miles is nothing Ben. Give it here.

 

Your state sucks ass

 

Im actually shocked it is even an option for you.

 

Yeah the laws suck but I couldn't imagine living anywhere else. It's an absolutely beautiful diverse state and there's always something to do.

 

Nope, they are just a hair over a quarter inch difference and I left myself 1/2" of buffer.

Thanks man! She's pretty funny, I like my little taco truck even if it is a complete mixmatch. I daily the LC, still bone stock save for a brake controller and a stereo. Love that thing.

 

i still dont get it. the 3rd gen's just aint worth it

 

Shit you are in PHX now? We've been talking about moving to AZ. Shiiiiittt! Plan to visit this year. Also I want that LC

 

Why? Have you ever driven one?
