1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

The DIY wash I go to has big signs in each bay saying 'NO ENGINE DEGREASER' so yea they don't allow it.

 

I prefer to think of it as research

 

So you don’t want me to put the anime stickers on?

 

I put stickers on my back window but won't put them anywhere else. Thinking I'm going to take off the ones from vendors though, started realizing I don't want to be a free advertisement for them anymore. I usually get a sticker whenever we go to a national/state park though and those I'll probably keep.

 

The lowrange stickers dont last anyways. I have a wheelers "w" and a bilstein sticker, but all the rest are bike stuff of places ive been.

Bet the mechanism is all rusty and full of mud

 

Or maybe the cables just not long enough to go to the ground

 

could be, its never been removed!

was flat in the driveway one morning

The video above shows you how to change a flat tire in your 1998 Toyota Tacoma. Make sure you are in a safe area that is level and free of traffic before attempting to fix a flat tire. This video shows you where the spare tire, jack and jack kit is located in your Tacoma how to assemble the components of the jack kit, how to replace the flat tire for your spare tire and safety precautions to take when using your jack. Most Toyota jack kits include the jack, a jack handle and a lug nut wrench.

While following the instructions provided in your Tacoma's owners manual and in this video will help minimize the risk of injury. The best way to avoid injury is to never get under your vehicle while it is jacked up. Remember also, that even if your car is jacked up properly, another car could hit it and knock it over; therefore, be sure to give careful consideration to your environment before raising your car.

 

Neither of mine go to the ground
