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

I replaced mine yesterday

 

Don't have to replace tailgate handles if you don't have a tailgate

 

Finally installed a tach cluster after 20 years of owning the truck. Love it!
Bought a 4 cyl cluster, they sent a 6 cyl. Don't love it. The guy that pulled it confirmed he got it from the correct truck (2.7 4x4) so he thinks maybe it was not the original cluster to that truck. Anyone have an extra 98-00 4 cyl tach cluster laying around?

Huge THANK YOU to @mechanicjon for reprogramming the odometer!



Also, finally fixed my antenna ornament decoration thing or whatever Toyota calls it. Had to cut and pry and pick out the black plastic all the way down to the bottom of the threads. Then had to clean up the threads for the new nut.

 

Everyone keeps telling me that the wheels look they cost more than the truck... lol

 

Has anyone converted from the 95-00 center console to the 01-04 console and have pics? I'm in the process of a swap, but remember warnings of a bracket. Anyone have pics of said bracket that needs to be included. I haven't started disassembly yet and need to ensure that I have all the parts I need.

 

The bracket bolts to the transmission tunnel towards the rear of the console. And then the console bolts to it. Just grab it when you get the console. Easy install.

 

Already have the console. Have it apart and painting it to match the gray/blue. There is a "bracket" present, but it is integral to the console. Beginning to think that I dont have the bracket that I need...

 

Is that one from a 4runner or a quad cab tacoma? my ext cab doesnt have that storage thing in the back.

 

Damn, just looked it up. Missing bracket and bolts...



Anybody have these that they want to part with?

 

Xtra cab as far as I know. It was a part out from another member, not sure of the year.

 

Mine does, ext cab

 

what year is yours?

 

oops. just saw your sig. 99. got it.

 

Talking about the 02 actually, the 99’s got the the special needs square cup holders

 

That's one of the main reasons I'm upgrading mine to the newer model...

 

lol.. yeah I have an 02 as well.. Im a donkey... I just went out to look and I do have that thing... Just got the truck a month or so ago... Never been in back.... now I have a place to store useless $hit...

 

Gawd they’re annoying

 

my friend has a 99 4 banger and those cup holders got my redbull the other day... All over the carpet. I told him it was the trucks fault.

 

Failed smog check because the damn check engine light bulb is burnt out
