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

Not stock would be my guess.

 

I run 85-140 as well, that’s what was recommended to me from the diff shop that added my gears, before that’s I ran 75-90 in both stock.

 

Still haven't ordered a carrier bearing, any recommendations? I figured i might as well get oem

 

I'm not sensitive but I call people out when they type before they think. Even though this is the internet, your words can have an affect on people. You clarified what you meant so I guess I can give you credit for that. If you would have said it was stupid for "Toyota" to specify different grades for the front and rear differentials when they are so close to being the same, that would be different. But, you didn't say that. You quoted my post and then said it was stupid.

Just like you pal, I'm not going to change for anyone. I call things like I see and hear them and I honestly don't give a shit what people think of me even though I run a Youtube channel. I didn't like what you said and I called you out for it. So, don't get your panties in a wad that I didn't like the way you said what you said.

 

Panties weren't wadded, unlike yours it seems from this last post. I'm dropping this from here.

 

Meanwhile..

 

Those UBJs don't look happy.


And meanwhile in my world.

 

It could have ended a lot sooner if you would have acknowledged that quoting my post and then choosing the word "stupid" might have not been the best decision. You could have just said, "Yeah, sorry dude, I didn't mean it that way. I meant Toyota was stupid for specifying different grades." But, you had to mention i was sensitive and then mention you're still going to use that word and blah, blah, blah. You know what you said. With forums, this is all we have. We're not going to be talking face to face ever unless you lived in the California Bay Area and attended one of party's I throw for subscribers. So yeah, your word choices can and will have an affect on people. Just because this is the internet doesn't give you right to be rude to people. Ok, enough said.

 

Lol nope.

Ucas will go one before summer likely.

 

make sure that you have room to swing the engaged/free spool lever. I had to do a bit of heating and straightening to get it to work.

 

It looks like that one swings down? So he might be fine. Looks like plenty of room either way.

 

Yeah I might just throw some whatever the hell is cheap in there lol. I’m just hoping whatever that comes out of my diff isn’t pure soup because it’s been sounding pretty unhappy the last couple weeks...

 

Ah, I see what you are saying. Let me just say my not checking caused me a fair amount of unnecessary work.

 

Yes on my first wood template I made it didn’t fit. Had to make room so now I have about 1/8” clearance at the closest point.

It actually swings up, but yes there is enough room.

 

Working on designing the front. Which do you guys think looks better?
Option 1

 

Or option 2

 

I think I like the triangles better
