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

Fun fact: pedal covers from a 2005 Scion tc fit 1st gen Tacomas!

Old and busted:



New Hotness:

 

I've been without a cover on my clutch pedal until now lol. Junk yard pull or Amazon buy?

 

Junk yard pull. If you want, I can ship you one of my old ones. Only the clutch pedal cover was torn, so the brake cover is still good. I just replaced both because I wanted them to match. DM me if interested.

 

Nope all good, Clutch is the only one I need, I'll dumpster dive for it. Thanks for the information!

 

You sure? It's the same cover for the clutch and brake pedal.

 

They've also got them brand new at oriellys for like $10... they're with the other Dorman Help products

I was unaware of this, I'll pick one up tomorrow. Thanks guys!

 

Was gonna say... they're like 5 bucks lol

 

I think I got mine here: https://209yota1.com/products/clutch-and-brake-pedal-pad/

"Fits 90% of Toyota’s with Standard Transmissions"

But hey, those Scion pads have a fun zigzag pattern.

 

Exactly why I got them, haha. I was at the yard trying to find a spare tire hoist and figured since I was there I might as well grab the pedal covers too. Turns out 4Runner hoists don't fit Tacomas since the bolt pattern is different, but hey, zigzags!

 

Still need one? Pretty sure I have mine on my parts shelf.

 

Added the RCI front skid and transmission skid!

 

The hoist? Yes I do!

 

Looks like a have work this weekend any recommendations on rad’s ?

I really really really really like my champion radiator. Shipped quick didn't cost too much more than an O'shitty's radiator for a full core Alu. 10/10 recommend. Becertain to order the correct one. I mistakenly got mine 2" shorter (in height) than my stock one. Only made it slightly challenging to get the hose on. But was nice for high clearance everything else at the time.

 

In my honest opinion, get whatever works. These are work trucks; it will take whatever you give it.

Thermostat does most of the job.

 

Yea trying to keep it on the low cost as possible..

 

Champion radiator is garbage. There's a thread here about the consist leak from a ton of members.

A handful of guys I know run koyo with no issue. That will be my next rad if my Denso need a replacement.

 

Awkward. Guess I lucked out with mine. Didn't know about the bad rap on em

 

I went through three of them before I gave up on them. One of them didn't even make it out of the driveway. I went back to a stock 4Runner radiator.
