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

Thats a pretty beefy axel it has

 

That... that is something.

Some body style as the Hilux Surf, which is why my Inclinometer shows the same graphic.

 

oh man, I didn't even notice it had one haha

 

That truck belongs in the Florida mud bogs

 

Put some people on ignore. Dont y'all have jobs? Girlfriends? Same stuff gets recycled every 3 hours it seems.

 

We’re bringing the bs back to this thread

 

Take that shit back to the lunchtable thread.

 

Damnit Daniel, don't boss me.

 

What a party pooper

 

I can tell you rn those wont work on a 5lug. But that doesn’t matter.

 

Should be fine. Same front suspension/steering.

 

Who pissed in your cheerios?
Jk


Hate taking a crap in the morning and reading 5 pages of bs...lol

 

99% sure the 3rd gen 4r outer tie rod is smaller than the Tacoma. I think the lbj stud hole for the otr is smaller also.

 

Tacoma is basically done and I'l pick it up some time in the afternoon on Friday. I'll be in a mad dash to put it all back together, but not so mad that quality is sacrificed. I haven't spend this much on a vehicle all at once since the E30 Alpina clone ten plus years ago.

 

pretty sure your wallet feels more like this tho:

 

That's actually the one thing that is different between 3rd gen runner and taco. They have different tie rods and ball joints. Just a heads up

 

Went to the local U-Pull It to get an Ignition Control Module for my 95. Came home with:

Looks good until...why does life always have a "down side"?

 

Has the ultra rare extra cab Toyota running boards. No joke those things are rare as fuck, no one bought them. I want a set

 

Part out?

 

I bought it because for a truck in this part of the country (Indiana), the frame and underbody are cherry. The hit was above the frame, but wiped out the front body mount, rad, & probably condenser. V-6 LX with 255,000. I got it for $1400. I feel I can: 1.) put $5-700 in parts plus my labor (w/o paint); 2.) use the frame as a donor for my 95 with 2.7 and 155,000 miles and a swiss cheese frame.

First step is replace rad and T/A cooler and run the engine & check trans function. Compression check. Parts list...$$$?

Good news is all fluids and exhaust pipe residue look pristine. LH door and windshield undamaged. No obvious previous body damage other than scratches.

Bad news engine room main W/H relay box was damaged, but TBD on how bad.
