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

Price based on location, mods and zero frame rust. Runs perfect too.

 

Sometimes turn key sells

 

Sounds like I became an old man at the ripe age of 17

 

Someone bought my 04 for $13,900. It did have a new frame of less than 2 years old.

 

You can get a 4x4 for less than half what hes asking in my neck of the woods, if he can really sell it for that much i may just make a business of buying and shipping toyotas

Not knocking the truck its actually really well built but damn

 

Yep, Some souls are older than others

 

I love the two jerry cans. That one looks like its been through hell, and the other is the shiniest one I've EVER seen.

 

Quick question/request!! I noticed this cable end was disconnected from the valve that controls the flow of water to the heater. It doesn't seem that it would be designed to just slip onto the bare metal arm of the valve, and it didn't show wear like it had been on there. I am assuming that there was probably a plastic piece, that has broken and fallen off. Both the cable and the valve move without issue. Can someone give me an image, that I may go forth to the Pick-a-Part? Since Tacomas are a rarity, I imagine I'll need to find on some other Toyota model. TYIA

 

Not sure what model your tacoma is but I found a solution that will keep you from having to strap your jerry can's down. Check out their website. Might be helpful. www.tacojerry.com

 

Those window decals are sick

 

No plastic parts or anything on mine. The end of the tab has a bend to help hold it on, but that's it.

 

I was pretty sure the cable end just slides over that tab and just stays connected on its own.
I guess I could see the valve seizing up and then the cable not being able to move it and then sliding off??? I dunno, could just be a fluke or someone disconnected it to mess something and forgot it

 

Ewwwww, a non OEM, worm drive clamp on one of heater hose ends.... I'm playing, man

 

Many thanks!! I guess my bracket is just bent a bit, as it was putting a slight bend in the cable. No scavenger hunt for me!!

 

I Bought the main Bulk of 4x4 parts to convert my 2004 Pre-runner!
Moving to the mountains in December so will finally have a need for a 4x4

 

Here they are!

 

Also pressed in New rear axle bearings and new axle seals before getting on the road to go pick up the parts. Got 225,000 miles out of my original bearings and seals. Bearings were still super smooth when I took them out! But they had a little more play then I was comfortable with.

 

Yea, that was a temporary fix years ago that just sort of became permanent.

 

I think I found the solution to mounting scepter cans to a prinsu rack

Thanks!!!

 

Another Taco under the knife.
