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

Are these for the tubular style SPCs? Before the redesigned version.

 

Yes, PN 25466 is the bushing kit for the 25460 series tubular control arms.

 

Working on the 98. The lines for the 98 are discontinued. Had the 01+ lines from the frame kit, did make them work. Little jank, but completely stock 01 lines will technically work with creative bending

Line from the junction goes through the coil of the line from the master, bend it up from the junction then a few bends to keep it away from hitting the other line. All is good

 

Any idea what the reason is for having the coil and the brake line like that? Is it for air in the line or something?

 

The lines are mounted on the frame and the master and some of the lines are mounted to the body, those flex opposite each other and the coils let the brake lines accommodate that without fatiguing and breaking.

 

What @Speedytech7 said

 

Ah gotcha. Makes sense. Didn't think about that.

 

Can anyone follow their power steering pump wire back a foot? Does this just plug on and sit on top of the intake? This is on a 2003 3rz

 

This is what I did today.

 

That's always a fun one.

Dmz makes nice perches to replace them. Just triple check your measurements before burning them in.

 

I’m gonna get someone to burn them in. I’ll be taking the motor out though.

 

Oh wow
Look at opo side
Jeez

maybe B pedal will be more stout

 

Sad
That’s the year of my taco

 

Threw in a hot usb/usb-c charger in the back before my hunting trip this weekend. Being meaning to do it for a while.

 

Waiting on some final bits. Should be able to start it by the weekend with a fresh set of headers and a cat (no cat back yet) but today I did decide the yellow headlights are ruining the truck. So i popped them off and have new oem ones coming. (And yes the insulation is coming off when I get buttoned up. I just don’t want to deal with it right now)

 

I threw some shiny discs in a tube with some rubber stuff. Real science like ya know?

 

that's an engine ground. Mine attached to one of the bolts on the back-underside of the intake manifold.

 

The shop just sent me these pics.

Flanges, perches, and truss = done ✔️

 

Popped the drivers side manifold out for some hand machining
