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

Yeah it's easy

 

I'm guessing there's two for the engine, right?

My guess on how to do this is lift up the engine from the factory points with a cherry picker.

 

What @BartMaster1234 said.

 

So I think I have a location picked out for the air compressor under the hood. The problem is, I will lose the cruise control and I really don't want to if at all possible. Relocation is therefore the only option. My question however, is the cable replaceable on the CC unit? If it is, then I might be able to have a longer one made which would give me better options for retaining the CC in a new location.

 

I believe it is. Just pull the cover off and it should be removable

 

Yeah, just use the picker on the front hook to pull it up after loosening the mounts and swap em out and set it back down. Takes like 10mins per side if you are using stock style rubber mounts

 

Hi, I just finished my project , I installed a custom front hitch for a removable Winch to use it in front and rear.. also as you can see, I installed a 2016-2018 tailgate on my Tacoma 2001 DC "Prerunner" CONVERTED to 4WD 5 speed MANUAL transmission. 10" low profile Pioneer subwoofer

So I thought I fixed my water leak, but I didn’t. I think it’s better now but still leaking. I had wires running on the out of the rubber boot in the fire wall on the driver side. I cut the wires and ran them through the boot and sealed them with silicone so the boot would sit tight in the hole like normal. But water is still seeping around the boot. Any ideas on how to seal it better? Silicone around the boot too?

 

That's what I would do, short of replacing the boot. If you can even get one.

 

Would you recommend stock OEM Replacement, aftermarket stock replacement, or like a Polyurethane (if one exists)?

 

If you're gunna go to the trouble of replacing the motor mounts, might as well get the bomb proof ones - https://www.trail-gear.com/index.php/bomb-proof-motor-mount-kit.html

 

Website says:

“Caution: These motor mounts will cause more vibration than OEM motor mounts.”

I’m trying to get rid of the excessive vibration haha.

 

And? If you don't want that then go with OEM replacements.

 

The whole reason I’m replacing the motor mounts is because of excessive vibration...

 

That’s what he was asking.

 

also cancer and reproductive harm.

I can take one or the other but not both vibes and cancer/reproductive harm

 

You added that part after I responded.

OEM/aftermarket OEM is your only choice then. Poly motor mounts of any kind are going to have more vibration than stock.

 

If you read back the conversation was about my shaky idle.

 

Missed that part. Have you visually inspected your existing motor mounts to see if they are broken or cracked. Mine, even with 317k miles and a completely broken trans mount when I got it are still fine from what I can see.

 

I have not. I assumed they’d need to be replaced by 100,000 miles.

My transmission mount I literally found on the ground of the junkyard, so who knows the history behind it.
