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

Not interchangeable. The axle shafts and matching inner races on the bearings are different.

 

I think the seal is the same, but I've not messed with a non-abs housing.

I would double check some part numbers to make sure.

 

My slave cylinder is leaking anybody know where to get a good one?

 

Anyone know of someone whose put full hydro under their SASd first gen? Have a couple questions

thanks y’all

 

Rebuild

 

I cleaned the inside of my windshield today

 

i am thinking of dressing the old black bitch up for the new year!

the tow hook in front i think could use a new color
thinking about bright blue metallic or copper canyon mica

whatcha all think i ought to go about with it


this ghetto wand wash saved my truck

 

Nice troka!

 

what the hay is a troka?

 

Translation: truck

 

oh, well thank you!
its that time of season again that extra TLC is required
and thanks to TW i now know of the FF product that i can do even more to protect it from the winter monster like i have never ever before!

but the local dealer balked at me for coming in with the whole front suspension drizzled in the product when getting an alignment check
they had absolutely no clue what all that was leaking under there

 

Looks like all the work you’ve put into your Taco is paying off!!

 

just freezing hands and feet! and frozen doors and windows the next day sometimes

dealer service manager told me i should trade it in for a new model and get plates that say '20 TACO'

 

Started hearing a weird kind of whining that goes away after the truck warms up.

Next time I cold start it, gonna pop the hood and try to pinpoint where its coming from. Either engine or (hopefully not) transmission.
Already checked belts and they seem to be fine. Hopefully it's something simple like the idler pulley bearing.

 

What???!?!?

 

I'd be interested in what you find as you troubleshoot. I noticed something similar a few times but it hasn't happened again for over a week.

 

I had a whining noise last week that got worse until it was constant (warm or cold)...got louder with RPM and quieter at lower RPM. Turned out to the bearing in the AC pulley, was loose (could move it back and forth with your fingers). Dunked the front end a few times recently in muddy water on the trail and that probably did it in.

 

Mystic Purple Mica (938)

 

is that a darkish purple?

 

should be here by Friday from Texas
