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

So is he, ROW is rest of the world, meaning no imports whether or not they are allowed federally, the state has its own rules that say no

 

All I know. I’m happy I finally got my surround sound music to work right in windows...


(And I can legally buy a 25 year old import with realative ease)

 

Same yo!

 

A grey market car is one that was never for sale in the united states. What Florida allows and what California allows for grey market registrations are two totally different animals. Just because Florida will title it doesn't mean California will allow you to register it when you bring it in.

Right now I'd love to buy a classic pre 1990 Mini. North Dakota would have no problem issuing a title, but if I moved back to California I couldn't register the car there. Californians have voted the wrong way for far too long. I'm all for clean air, but CARB should be dismantled. It one of the most burdensome and tax grabbing boards in the state

 

My mistake, not BAR, I'm an idiot i know what BAR is. It's ARB. Looks like it's older than 1967 where they don't care.

It's expensive & hard to register newer than 1974 but not impossible.

LF Outer Door Scraper 68210-04020
RF Outer Door Scraper 68160-04020
LR Outer Door Scraper 68174-35020
RR Outer Door Scraper 68173-35030

Nevermind that it says scraper, that's just what I have it named in my parts list. Toyota calls it belt weatherstrip.

 

U guys realize you are cluttering the daily thread and not lunchtable right? Js
Carry on

 

My apologies sir!

 

New owner....with worst workers now...i thought he would own up and honor his work...nope....

Done with him

 

Oh honestly I didn’t. Oops

 

Shouldn't. LBJ play will allow your spindle to move. Since everything mounts to your spindle, it should all move together. One thing warps rotors. Heat. Can be caused by people who are hard on their brakes (riding your brakes downhill I still consider being hard on your brakes). Or rotors that are machined too thin to begin with. Or hauling heavy loads (truck with armor, trailer, loaded bed, etc). Or brake pads that run too hot for the rotor. Like ceramic pads. Or brake issues, like the rear brakes not engaging enough and all the stopping effort being put on your front brakes.

If you have a problem with your front rotors warping repeatedly, I suggest making sure your rear brakes work, then upgrading to tundra brakes.

 

Hmm I was unaware they made a d2...I guess working for Toyota for six years didn’t pay off...

 

Parts catalog shows that D1 is what the 3.4L calls for originally.

Edit: I shouldn't have said originally. Catalog says discontinued, replaced with the D1.

 

Not sure, possibly, & no surprise if yes but doesn't matter anyway. Any D filter will be fine. I hear many dealers won't even consistently sell you the same filter. I never knew, I just looked it up now & it shows the NUMMI built Tacoma with 3.4L takes a D1. Before these D3 filters that I got, I never used OEM filters before. Bought them cause they were dirt cheap & saw videos of guys cutting them up saying they're decent filters.

 

As in some dealers will give you D1 or D2, etc, so I hear. Probably just whatever they have in stock at the time. COO I'm not sure, I've never purchased an oil filter from my local dealer before. All the D3 filters that I have are made in Thailand.

 

Thanks DJ! This shop just doesnt want to warranty his crappy parts that he installed

 

put 2500+miles on mine exploring the Grand Canyon and southern Utah.

3000+ photos

lots of weather.

No broken parts.

Countless smiles and great memories.

 

I see a lot of people rhino line their floor pans so you could always do that.

 

Did a bit of 4low testing yesterday at a buddies barn. Walked up and down this without a problem. Pretty cool to see what these trucks are capable of with such little effort.
