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

I noticed that my trip meter is 2 miles less than the actual trip. My work is exactly 30 miles. Trip meter says 28. Based on that it’s roughly 6.5% less actual recorded miles.

 

Thanks bro. Im an idiot tho. I meant windshield squirters....was it crv nozzles that people are using?

 

I can't remember if it was the CRV ones or another brand but there's a write up on here somewhere for installing another brand of nozzles that have a spray pattern rather than the blob/stream that our truck's nozzles do

 

11-13 Honda oddessy washer nozzles. I’ve got them in my truck.

Shoot I don't even have a washer reservoir, someday I will, for now a bottle of water has to do.

 

I installed my supercharger today along with the Snow Performance meth kit. Meth kit not pictured.

 

i wonder if the 1st gen tundra ones fit the tacos.. (probably), they have the nice fan pattern, at least my 05 does

 

I rarely use mine tbh, maybe I just buy crappy wipers but it seems like using the washer fluid just makes whatever stuff landed on the windshield all smeared and 10x worse. I just clean the the windshield once a week or so when I fill up with gas using the squeegees

 

No, but they spray a stream rather than a fan like pattern. I guess they do work fine. The ones on my daily are clogged. That thing is such a pile of shit. Lol

Thank you sir

 

I have these and it takes about 2 minutes to install.

Make sure you have a small 90 degree pointed pick to adjust the angle of the nozzle otherwise it sprays UNDER the wiper blades.

I found out... at 45mph on Saline Valley washboards... fail...

 

Got the pile back together for a little while at least. Final mounted the spots and aimed them. Went wheeling, was icy as fuck.

 

New front brakes, reman Raybestos calipers, Brembo rotors, Akebono pads.
Happy with performance so far.

 

Sure

 

nice

i have the same bumper, been hard to figure out who made them
Came with the truck

 

Has snorkel to ford rivers, worry’s about driving in rain and snow*

 

Took the truck to a brake shop because I wasn't able to get my drums adjusted properly by myself, figured it would be easy for someone that works on brakes all day.

After my install the drums would be 250 and 70F after a short drive. Now they're 450 and 250F, and the hotter one smells very hot. I'm guessing these temps/smells are not normal. Time to take it to my normal mechanic..

 

I’m planning on pulling the heads and inspecting everything. Was initially thinking of swapping the engine rather than tearing it down. I’ve seen people do both with a blown head gasket. I’ve never pulled heads before. But since the trucks no longer my DD I can take my time.

 

Sounds like a sticky cable

 

Got a Teflon acrylic coat on the paint today. It's overcast so you can't see the shine but it looks brand new.
