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

technically the one to the block alternator side (starter ground as you called it) i believe ties into the battery body ground wire. but i may also be wrong.. dont pay too much attention to it

 

It's by the oil filter. But a little bit forward and down.

 

That's a good idea. While I don't still have the old ones (let a steel scraper have them), I have two 95s and the other one needs one spring. The left spring broke a while back and I only replaced that one. I could go ahead and buy the RH side and take that old one apart and reuse. I might just try that for a project/learning experience.

 

They self clearance, ask me how I know

 

I don't think I was making any excuses, Mr. ; just sharing my style to compare rear shock travel needs. Plus, I'm still slower than Monte and @Squeaky Penguin for sure.

Not enough very's in this sentence. Getting out as much as I do, and so putting the miles under my belt helps a lot too I think, becomes a lot easier to pick lines and go fast when you're doing it all the time.

 

Oh yeah. that always helps. The threshold of comfort grows all the time.

 

I don't think it'll be possible to slow down...until im like 70 haha hard to go back to slow speeds.

 

Depends on terrain I think. I've learned which terrain can accept higher speeds without really messing with the truck. When I hit rocks, I slow way down. Our last couple trips have been on nicely graded roads.

Who knows, maybe I'm just fooling myself.

 

That's a good point. I have a dog now so that could impact my world more than I think. He'll be in the cab still but Devin will not want it to be crazy.

Could get a dog harness though...

Don't worry, you are. Just wait for XYZ to implode on itself as it will eventually and then you'll go...damn..I should slow down I guess.

So you'll fix it and then go back out with the intention of slowing down only to find it impossible to do so haha

 

If it means anything I do have a picture of you hanging up over my garage workbench

 

Dan is doing this with Echo. Probably a good safety measure regardless.

 

Sure, I let her drive once in a while. But she’s never off her leash for even a second.

 

LOL I forgot about that. Funny shit.

This looks appropriate


To bad my dog is bigger than that.

 

Yeah im building a platform and hope to find something that'll work.

 

No shit! haha be so good. Gotta find it...

 

You carry a pretty good pace.

Don't speed up anymore or your truck will end up like mine - A constantly broken piece of shit.

 

Stainless steel fuel lines and heat shield are waiting for the supercharger coming today from its build

 

Solid advice

 

It's almost funny how universal it is that going fast is expensive. Off-road, on track, in space, on the internet... hell faster charging is even more expensive. And if you get caught, it's expensive going fast on road too
