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

Yeah it's low, it must have happened yesterday because I checked the fluid when we got back from our trip on Monday and it was fine. That hose to the caliper doesn't seem loose and the bolts are tight...hmm

 

Maybe the crush washer just said bye bye

 

Possibly, gonna crack a beer and crawl under there with my wrenches and see what's up, hopefully something is just loose enough that it caused a leak.

 

Yikes.

 

Hopefully the crimp on the hose isnt lose and leaking there

 

Refill the fluid. Then...Clean it up and shine a light on the hose & caliper checking for hairline cracks. If you don’t find any problems, replace the copper washers. You’ll find them at NAPA/OReillys/Autozone and so on. Find the problem and repair it before driving. The master cylinder is small and drains quickly.

Good luck and update us!

 

Does anyone know is the stainless steel braided break lines from a 6lug will fit on a 5lug. I wanna get longer lines in the rear

Edit: im assume that oem parts will be different part numbers but that’s probably because of length idk if the fittings are different

 

Rear should fit fine, front I'm not sure

 

Or do you know any place that makes custom lines?

 

Yup, I cleaned it up and saw a split in the hose pretty quick...gonna top off the fluid and head to the auto parts store for a new hose.

 

Double check the part#s, but I think the calipers interchange. So the lines will also, like speedytech7 said not sure about the length.

 

I bought mine from Wheelers. Best lines I’ve seen.

 

Nice work.

Let us know how it goes.

 

I wonder if the guys over at urd or lce will know

 

Napa

 

Only napa near me is like a 30min drive lol

And all the guys at the 2 orileys near me arnt that bright

 

No.

Good tweeters usually have either a passive or active crossover. You don't want to send full range to a 1" speaker. It won't operate efficiently.

 

We have fellows like that too. Just look up the part and already know what you need then tell them the part#, you’ll be fine. If you have time to order, wheelers delivered in two days or so.

 

I’ve come to learn SR5 means absolutely nothing. My truck was an SR5 from the factory, but came with bone stock everything. Crack windows, manual locks, manual mirrors, RWD - except I had those nice Alloy wheels.

My 5-lug was also and SR5 but came fully loaded with the power doors, sliding rear window, double DIN radio, etc.

I’ve seen SR5 single cabs that don’t even come with air conditioning.
