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

I was using my personal gmail email, I've had issues with email spoofing in the past. I believe my email was part of the Adobe leak a few years ago.

 

Haven't been on here in a while just saw "American Auto Horns" bravo my friend

 

Thanks!

Not too bad

 

Sometimes it's the wording of the email that causes the receiver's email provider to flag it as spam...if there's some mention of a product in it or something. It's dumb but usually the system is pretty good at determining what is and what isn't spam.

 

Let's scratch the locker idea, that would probably add $1,500 to the total cost.

 

Usually around 900-1200 for a rear locker so yeah it's adds up fast

 

Just weld the rear for free, you've got a welder

 

I'm not doing burnouts in it haha.

 

@BartMaster1234 I told ya Zuk would hook you up proper

 

I rev the shit out of my 3rz. I hit 5k rpm all the time, cruise above 3k. It's still going at 245k miles. Compression isn't the greatest but within spec at sea level. Hopefully I get around to doing another test to compare numbers from last year.

If you have a 3rz, a fat fuck of a rig (+1500-2000lbs), on 33's and live above 5000ft 5.29's are the only way to go. I regret my 4.88's.

Time to step it up!

My opinion on chains is that they are only good on hard pack snow/ice. In which case a locker is not what you want engaged. Air down to 10psi or less if you have a stiff tire and know when to let off the skinny pedal, backup, and take another run.

 

What tire size are you? 5.29 is nice, but I don't want to do any trimming to allow for 33's.

 

You can just hammer some shit if you don’t want to trim.

Maybe, i tend to only use them when it’s too late and I’m already stuck.

 

I can't bring myself to do that. If 32's are the biggest they can go, then let it be.

 

I don’t get your thinking, any of the time.


But that’s fine, you do you bruh.

 

How?

I don't want to cut and hammer into my truck. Big deal.

 

ahhh... how naive and innocent you are..if my some unforeseen miracle you do end up going offroad...you'll start beating on the truck..then steadily at an exponential rate give less fucks about shit like that until you've hacked up everything and don't give a fuck about the looks of it anymore.











or just never get into offroading. Thats my advice. Its a lot cheap to not do it.

 

It’s in the wheel well, behind the liner, no one would ever see it and it wouldn’t hurt anything.

 

I'm sure I'll get to that point eventually. I want to keep it as nice as possible for as long as I can.

I'd be a few thousand richer if I decided to drive the E320 instead of the truck, haha.

 

We'll see. I'm not going to need new tires for a few years, so I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
