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

The Sequoia axles are semi float as well right? What are you putting that under?

 

Yes unfortunately. I got a truss for it, though I don't think that's the part that's really in danger of bending. It's going under the Tacoma to match the width of the long travel front.

 

Oh cool, I didn't know you were going long travel or I forgot.

 

Yup, just moving along at a slow pace cause busy with work (that I don't enjoy)

I make all my progress on the weekends in large portions and like nothing on the week days

 

Ok Dallas

 

Hey at least I can do all the work myself.

Setup a sequoia axle for my tundra I’m too lazy.

 

Why don't you just drive it boy.

Then shut your yap

 

Drive the tundra? I have been.

 

Why can't you just put the sequoia bearing carriers on anyway?

 

Different bolt pattern. The 4 studs on a tundra axle are spaced evenly like the tacos. The sequoia have 2 further and 2 closer

 

Why Toyota did that, no one knows

 

Huh, well that's annoying. That's a lot of work to do to an axle. Just chopping the brackets takes a long time, but then factor in the cost of the new brake components and making the ebrake work and well you have your work cut out. As I do :/

 

I’m just going to do the disc brake conversion later on like I got for the taco. From sos

 

You shut your mouth when you’re talking to me

 

Nice work, that is gonna be very handy.

 

Had a blast getting this transmission setup before going in: (New seals, upgraded magnetic drain plugs, new back-up sensor, throwout bearing, shift fork, boot, slave cyl, HD MC shift seat, MC HD shifter bush, MC short throw shifter) Very happy with how it came out.

 

Man, I wonder if that’s the “rattle” noise I’m hearing. Same symptoms as you.

Thought for sure it was a heat shield, but they’re solid. Checked the skid. It’s tight.

I’ll have to look at the exhaust manifold for a crack.

 

So clean and purdy!
