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

Anytime locker mod
https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/grey-wire-mod.4405/

 

@burntkat
Allows a 4wd to lock the rear differential in 2hi, 4hi, or 4lo.

The stock 4wd can only lock the rear differential in 4lo.

Easy mod and will come in handy.

 

This:

You said you had a spare stub for an add diff right? Pm me a price

When I did my re-gear I had no issues popping the stub with two pry bars. Today it just wasn’t happening so we popped it by hammering through the other side of the diff with a long thin Allen wrench. And then we used the same thing to remove the broken piece of stub shaft from my diff. Sucked needing to pull cv’s from both sides though.

 

Unfortunately, pretty sure my truck doesn't have a locker.

 

I was able to get the driver side secondary shock hoop fabbed up today. Plan is to revalve coilovers tomorrow and go out to tune bypasses. To be continued...

 

Cleaned it up for the weekend

 

Ok hoping someone on here might know this even though it’s on a 2000 4runner and not a Tacoma lol...

This is the last thing holding up my moon roof, the bolt looks like it’s pressed into the body so I don’t think I could turn it from above even if I could access it..

 

Frame looks nice.

 

Lemme go find it and I’ll PM you a price.

 

I've missed a lot in the last week or so. Haven't done much but rack up miles on the old girl. Been focused on getting the 01 Cobra back on the streets which it finally is after 8 months of being down. Now it is time to get some things buttoned up on the truck. I am getting voltage drops now, were I was getting voltage spikes 3 months ago... Going to check all the wires and have the battery tested again.

 

Must be me....those front tires look SUPER skinny.

 

Did you check out @Timmah! video? Might be helpful - worth a watch...

Yea I watched it, He doesn’t show how to drop the entire sunroof track though.. in the end I think I’m just going to grab a new sunroof setup out of a part out..

 

Ordered more parts for the dual battery set up today.


Got the relay for 29 bucks on a Warehouse deal. And the price on the negative terminal is for 2.

 

Make sure you let me know when your next mod day is. I'll definitely head out. want to check out what you've done to that runner.

 

That is what I went with!

 

Angelo (@roguegs) was thinking the 9th. I think he's wanting to do something with a tonneau cover and may be doing dual batteries.

 

Pretty much. The same concept.

 

I'd look at the alternator. The battery can't possibly cause spikes.
