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

That sounds way to difficult man. Just rip it out and use one of these

$49 Wilwood Engineering 260-12627 Adjacent Proportioning Valve Knob Style (M10 x 1.0 BF inlet)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B011B4UX5U/

Edit: I get the creative Engineering part for sure. Along with time vs money.

These are metric and you could put it anyway inline that you wanted. Up on the firewall ect ect.

 

I use my cell phone for the time, or stop and ask someone.

 

Basically free99 though.

 

Understood, as stated Time vs Money.

Either you have the time to do and no money. Or you have the money and no time!

 

I've got a broken foot right so I have plenty of time and little money haha

 

Made the decision to switch back to OEM paper air filter. Free 3.4L K&N filter to anyone that wants it in central Oregon (sorry, face to face only, no shipping). Needs a cleaning, other than that, still works great.

 

That was about 5 years ago, and it's with @penguins_cc. We did a badass paint job on it if it still exists. He was a little peeved because we painted his glass fenders right after and apparently used up any talent we had on the 1st gen fender

 

Haven’t seen anyone install that particular one yet, hmmm.

 

Shit, hell, and damn.

The unit I bought at Summit is SAE. I should have caught that.

 

I wear this neat thing called a watch. It always has the right time, as it is solar, set to the Atomic clock, etc.

 

Awesome, glad it helped.

 

Well yeah, that steering wheel its probably visible. But the 01-04's, not a chance. Its ok, I still lean over to see the clock.

 

This weekend I did the “passenger door won’t seal” mod...

And hit a 3 foot ledge but it looks like barely anything on video...

I'll see your broken right foot and add in a sprained MCL and meniscus.

I've been on crutches for 2 weeks and a cane for the last week. Broke the toe 5 weeks or so ago, walking funny strained the knee 2 weeks ago. If my dumb ass had gotten a cane or crutches straight away I could have avoided the knee issue entirely. To say nothing of the 300 dollar doc visit and the dozen xrays I'm going to get reamed for.

Luckily my lovely bride hasn't said "You should have gone to the doctor".

...but she knows, Damnit. She knows....

 

Do you hug the steering wheel when you drive?

I can’t see it when I’m sitting like a normal human in either of my trucks, I’m 6’ 1”.

 

You win, lol. I've been on crutches for the last 3 weeks and still have 4 to go. Fortunately I've got a chair on wheels in the garage or I probably would have lost my sanity by now.

 

One more item on the long list of reasons that I didn't/won't buy an '01-'04.

No hugging. 3 clicks back on slider, 2 on recline.

 

God don't I know that feeling. I probably should still be on crutches, the doc wanted me to take a week off work. Yeah, no. So I can now hobble around without the cane a bit but then I pay for it the next day. Spent most of the weekend laying around and today sucked on the cane. I just need to baby it for a solid week or so and I think I'll be ok.

 

For future reference!!

 

Ok... Swap is near completion. Filling the trans now.

When I go to put it in park, there is a grinding sound. What does that mean?

Hopefully someone knows the answer, that is still awake.
