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

Could just be crappy harbor break cans but yea I wasn’t amused either haha

 

Just a matte black

 

I just got the black stuff in rattle can. Was going to do my front and rear bumpers as well but I’m beginning to wonder if I need to take them to an actual line-x place.

cans are like $11 a piece on Amazon which isn’t terrible

 

I got the rust oleum stuff. Did you use adhesion promoter or anything?

 

I used some rustoleum bed liner in a can and it didnt work super well, i think adhesion promoter wouldve worked better. But a higher quality bed liner would work better either way.

 

Raptor Liner over Raptor Liner Adhesion Promoter for the win.

I've been down multiple pin stripe trails and it has held up very well.

 

Bought some energy suspension sway bar bushings and end link bushing, the sway bar bushing doesn't fit. Its not even remotely small enough to fit in the sway bar metal clip. Does anyone have a part # thatll fit?

Energy suspension said I am SOL and offered a refund. End links work tho.

 

I ordered a kit to do all the bushings on my GX. Same story, half of them weren't even close. Did a cursory review and found that they were indeed the wrong part number. Energy did the same thing and told me to kick rocks. Fuck 'em.

 

Nope but after doing it I feel it would’ve made a world of difference

 

Damn rust got to the tailgate cables. Was scared to sit on the tailgate. Changed them out today.

 

X2 on the raptor. Little sand, wash, raptor adhesion, raptor. Done.

 

Put a new oem power steering pump on.

 

Hard to believe that taco started life as a PeeRunner, hell of a build-out Matt

 

Thanks brotha... It's comin along nice, but will never be finished lol

 

Fixed ALL my weird noises. Just turned up the radio...noises went a way.

 

Has anyone ever had to trim/bend/cut this piece to clear tires? Idk if I did it already in this picture but I think I’ve already bent it downward with the tire while compressed on a turn. Just curious if this is a common thing like the pinch weld mod. Best pic I could find while I’m at work rn.

 

It's a sign that you have a proper alignment.

 

Just shined up old Trudy getting her ready for Toyotafest tomorrow...



Hope to catch some of you citizens of "the world" out there!

 

Can someone tell me what this is? Don’t have it in my Tacoma and saw it in a picture online…
