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

Good question, it’s also been 18 years and I lifted the truck in 2015 which may have something to do with it. I did replace LBJ’s and outer tie rods summer of ‘18.

 

16xx gallons filled the tank @ Shell ... 1st one of the '20s

'90s
'00s
'10s
'20s
somehow i wanna say that is 4 decades but it just doesn't sound kosher

also scrubbed the passenger window hard with the shell squeegee
somehow my green sponge had transferred stuff from the undercarriage to the windows and smeared them bad in the sun
bot new sponge

Received the clock delete/switch panel I had ordered from Paranoid Fabrications (@paranoid56) - as expected, awesome product!

 

You interested?

 

Put it on so I can see how it looks installed!

 

I'll tag you once its installed. Probably will be a bit though. On the list but not a priority. Just want to do away with that clock really.

 

Nice!
I just picked up the radio switch panel from them too.
Threw some satin black paint on it and it looks great. Hopefully will get around to installing it after work today.

 

Yep, that panel is nice! Blends very well.

 

Replaced upper cat but used old sensor. Well sensor was changed a few months back. anyway both cats both sensors are replaced 5 days of regular driving and ck engine light come back on with a po420 code, i'm like wth is the deal. what else is there to ck? could the fact that I ran a new upper sensor for so long before I changed the upper cat might have damaged the sensor. it really started popping and jerking and running rough right before Christmas and that's when I changed the upper cat. drove it about 20 miles to get it home. limped it along.

 

Looks like it came factory,

 

After previously removing all front suspension and steering parts up to and including the rag joint, installing upper ball joints, upper and lower CA bushings and front wheel bearings, today I started washing, wire brushing, wire wheeling and sanding sway bar, upper and lower CA's and knuckles to get them ready for painting. Thought about powder coating but decided to spray paint suspension parts with POR15 rust preventative and follow up with POR15 gloss black top coat (for easier cleaning). Will pressure wash frame and wheel wells this coming weekend while the truck is up on stands.

 

I won't be able to either but I didn't wanna move the clock or put it anywhere else on the dash. And I don't really ever use that cubby under the radio anyways.

I'll have Front & rear locker, compressor, & then i'll have to add some more when I get some more lights at some point.

 

I got my new corner lights and license plate lights. Going full legal.

 

Weekend plans showed up in the mail

 

What’s the little digital screen in front of your cluster?

 

I need to get that done ASAP too.

Where’d you get it and how much?

 

Scan gauge II

Id get an ultra gauge though.

 

Ditto on the Ultra Gauge.

And get the 1st Gen mount from @SpikerEng
