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

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

 

same

Looks fancy!! How do they ride??

 

No idea yet. Fighting removing my driver side shock.

Hoping good. 50lb per side spring rate increase and I need to crank them down a bit already. But if it's anything like my other ads shock..it'll ride awesome

Not sure, I'm still learning. But I figure Toyota includes the "right" grease in the kit, so I'd prefer to use that... No idea really.

Awesome, thanks for the tip (and the original video that got me to this point).

Turns out that two of the four kits I got only had half the grease they were supposed to, so Gunny's looking into it for me, to either send more grease or perhaps replacement kits. At any rate, I'm sure he'll work it out. And, the good news is I have two kits that are right.

Yeah, I was running 650s before the ADS but had adjusted them down. With the ADS, I think I need to lower them a bit since I think I can feel & hear my lack of downtravel on the trail. Was going to have you listen to it on the next trip.

 

I thought I seen you have issues with the kings on your Instagram story lol
