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

Added a Bakflip g2.

 

Gave it some new shoes.

 

I’d like one, but not for theft protection. Instead to protect from starting fires when driving over tall grass.

 

Found the noise!



I think my clutch needed replacing haha




Went new everything. And while I was at it had a local shop rebuild a spare tyranny I had. Likely didn't need it but if she was coming out I didn't want to put a 360k one back in.
New rear main also. Super easy when you are there.
A leisure couple days.

@Speedytech7 is there a trick to getting that slave in the fork and bolted up? I didn't release any pressure in the line. But wondering if a heavy clutch (did the lce pro) might make it a bit more difficult.

 

Crack the bleeder so you can push the pin in by hand maybe, usually isn't tough though, are you sure you have the fork seated on the pivot pin entirely

 

Ok I'll try that.
Yeah I checked several times before us getting it in. Should it move by hand easily?

 

You can usually compress the slave cylinder by hand if the pedal isn't depressed yes. Your clutch was pretty fubar, you might also have an over extended slave or a busted slave given the damage, may even have been the cause. Should check it, only a $15 part anyway

 

Interested to see what you come up with for sure. Maybe you can add some booby traps of some sort.

 

Haha just a little.
I have a spare slave somewhere I can toss in I think.

Yeah I can't compress the slave. Lulz
Fork is seated correctly. Took the boot off and checked just to make sure.

 

I just wiped down my dash and interior plastics started to get a layer of dust . Just about all the maintenance it needs for the upcoming winter.

 

Tundra brake upgrade with new Cooper 235/85/16s on SCS Ray 10s.

look so much better than those stock 15s I had.

 

Bleeding worked.


Just found hanging wires though
Looks like 4wd might need some repair.
You know what removal tool it is to get out those pins to re connect it? And just when I thought everything was going smoothly haha

 

Fixed the steering wheel play, hopefully. I did the tac weld mod. Should have done this along time ago. I enjoy driving it again.

 

RADesigns triple sticks showed up.

Found the front section of my Pre-Runner rear driveline under a pile of parts. My rear section was in the truck for a spare.

New center bearing should be arriving later today. I'll replace it before I take the DL to get cut and balanced.

Pulled the front driveline so it can be lengthened.

 

This skid plate was painted 1 year ago

 

Dropping mine off Monday. SouthBay Driveline quoted me out at $275 to shorten and re-balance my PreRunner DS. Should've done that to begin with. Now what to do with the Durashaft aftermarket driveshaft I had originally ordered lol...

 

Finally had time to install my freshly rebuilt Warn winch today.

 

Going the petroleum packing route... got everything back together except the oil pan (I think I might have my fan in backwards) and only have one extra bolt. Spare parts never hurt right? Timing cover has everything bolted, AC, alt, it all has every bolt but there's just this one extra one. Hopefully it isn't that important!

 

May be interested as well.
