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

HAHAHAHAHAHA

 

That’s what I was thinking about the zip ties. Probably just run it high right under the spring perches. I got u bolt eliminator perches so I don’t necessarily have to worry about u bolts and leaving slack.

 

What’s the width center to center of rear spring perches? Looks like I’m getting 39 or 39.5 inches. Thanks

 

Best response ever.

 

At least you maned up to it bud. Good for ya big thumbs up in my book.

 

OR "I'm a RAT"

 

So you have a contact for Streetacos? I’ve be trying to get in touch with him since I placed and paid for an order in Feb. Not answering email or phone...

 

Nailed it.

Haha


Glad it wasn't worse!

 

Anyone have recent contact with Streetacos or @Beefed Taco?

 

That guy goes AWOL for months at time. Are you trying to pick up a carrier bearing drop from him?

 

Yeah, paid for it in Feb.

 

Oof. Good luck.
I put one of those on my truck to try and help with some driveline vibes. Unfortunately it’s not really the right way to fix the problem. Ended up tossing it and correcting the pinion angle like I should have done in the first place.

 

That full float 9.5 under your rig yet?

 

Yeah, turns out it was more of a u joint issue, the lift is only 2”. I feel like an idiot for not going doing that first. Now I’m just trying to get my money back, I’ve learned an expensive lesson.

 

Getting there. Rebuilt hubs and brakes, just need to press on carrier and pinion bearings, then slam the diff back together. My shop is spread out over half of Puget Sound which makes it hard lol

 

Could be worse.
You could be me and forget a rocker arm on a Toyota 2.5... or better yet bend a door up because you forgot to close it all the way before lifting it.


We all make mistakes, luckily yours isn’t an expensive one. Just time consuming

 

Well hopefully you can get it all wrapped up soon. If I beat you to having another shop setup I'll invite you over and we'll get it all done

 

It might happen that way.
Hey you want to go in on a Slee braided stainless brake line kit? I just need the rears, and they only sell a kit with front and rear.

 

I'll PM ya about it, gotta research it, there's so many lines on a cruiser.

 

Got the intake rail, injectors all installed and ready for pressure testing tomorrow morning.
