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

Exactly there isn't a real good way to get EVERYTHING about a cars life into a short video that doesn't leave the viewer bored or watching an hour long video

 

Hey guys, I bought Cabelas seat covers for my 03 double cab. They're universal and have straps the go underneath the seat but the rear seats don't fold up and there's very little room to get underneath. Any suggestions on how I should install or should i just spend the money on some custom fit ones?

 

Unbolt the seats and install them on a table, lot easier to maneuver and smooth em out

 

Of course! haha thanks man

 

Easy swap? Did you just swap the whole rear axle?

 

Yeah it was pretty easy. All just bolt up stuff. I did the whole rear axle, you cant just swap the thirds like the older pretacomas. Making the wiring harness and switch was probably the hardest part and even that was pretty easy. I did this swap in my last 4runner so it went pretty slick. Though I don't recommend doing it in the driveway in the middle of a Spokane winter haha.

 

Pretty sure I know where you are...

 

Did it work out to be cheaper than just buying an ARB locker?

 

sounds like a creepy veiled thread lmao

 

Where?!

Yeah I have about $700 into it. Still trying to sell my old axle to get some of the money back. Arbs are about $1000 plus onboard air and the cost of setting up your third if you don't know how. 4runner one was cheaper to do cause they aren't as covetted it seems. If you make your own harness you don't have to worry about all the safety stuff that comes from the factory. Grey wire mod and such.

 

Not to get all Billy Mays on you but thought I’d share, since I’ve had no luck with other products I’ve tried. I used this to shine up my dull/faded fender flares. Worked really well and easy, just spray it on.

This is after five weeks with a few rain storms.

 

Does it come with a free joint? With that name I sure hope so.

 

Nah. Be a lot cooler if it did

 

Looks like the road leading to the Geiger heights area.

 

Nope! A little farther east. Would more pics help?

 

I picked up this 4are.com aluminum commercial topper and Kargo Master rack setup for $150. Seller was a mad Tacoma genius with 8 or 9 first gens on the place.

 

Me, too. Comes and goes.

 

They make some good glass cleaner, too.

 

I had one click for 260,000 miles. I intended to drive it to the failure point...the frame rusted in half at the 300k point.

That CV joint never failed.

 

You earn a " you suck" award for scoring a screaming deal.

In case anyone is wondering, it's a compliment
