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

This. When doing frame plates its not a big deal since the welds seal it up but weld through primer for boxing is essential IMO. Especially since you can never really seal it.

You can see it applied here:

And doesn't affect the welds.

I just dumped a couple cans of eastwood internal frame coating behind there after welding.

 

They have the multi directional wands too right? I fluid film inside the whole frame every year too.

Getting parts together to do manual hubs along with my 4x4 conversion

 

Gonna look sweet!

 

Decided to run the weld all the back to the end of the rear shackle hanger. Maybe it does some good, maybe not... but it looks a lot beefier than the factory weld.

 

Nothing like shiny new high quality Toyota (or Aisin or whoever) parts to get you drooling

 

I know I can't wait to get all of these buttoned up!

 

Fought this bitch for 4 hours this morning, gave up and had a shop pull it for me. Dont lose your spark plug socket grommets, or it'll end like this

 

Any idea why this fitting would be leaking? It’s a transmission line, the one furthest forward. I’ve tightened the jam nut, but it looks like it’s still leaking from the outside of the jam nut.

 

Changed the CEL bulb and look what likes to stay on

 

Change it back!

 

Somewhat of a stab in the dark - is it supposed to have an o-ring?

 

WTH!?!?

 

I didn’t even think of that.

Pretty sure it’s just a misfire code or whatever, gonna change the plugs and wires whenEver I decide to YouTube it

 

what kind of cluster bulbs are these?

 

Fun stuff haha
