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

I don't think it would work with a clutch pedal. I don't mind it at all though. This is exactly the same thing I did to the Tacoma. I've had no issues. Even when driving long distances. King of the Hammers is an almost 6 hour drive for us, and I've done that twice since I did this to the Tacoma.

My wife shouldn't have any problems with this. Her feet are a lot smaller than mine, lol.
(This runner is for her)

 

That's what I was wondering. Looks good

 

Just came in today

 

Retrofit headlights

 

Replaced the windshield reservoir filler tube with one from a 4Runner.

 

FAT

 

ooohhhhh!

 

Rub some mustard on it and get that rust started early

 

that asssss will be dragging

 

Mustard ass, niceeeee

 

Switched out the stock bump stops with these Perry Parts bump stops. Thanks to @unstpible for hooking it up.

 

With taller bump stops like this, what is the advantage of the stunted up travel of the suspension? Always looks like people only have like 1” of up travel till they hit the bump stops- seems a little counter intuitive? I’m here for knowledge of our IFS

 

I believe they are a "progressive " style of bumps. Their not hard for the initial part of the trave like the stock bump. So even though your into them earlier it's a softer smothered hit.

 

How far do these compress?

Was just playing with my suspension the other night. 1" of shock travel equated to roughly 3" of wheel travel. I noticed I wasn't making use of the last 1" of shock travel. Figured if I removed the bumps I'd gain 3" of up wheel travel. Not sure if the CVS could handle that though. I'd say that's a pretty significant amount and probably worth relocating the bump location so it doesn't limit travel but still protects the shock from bottom outs.

 

Looks like you were the first to get it done on the batch I sent out so you get a cookie (or cake because there's no cookie. Which means you can have your cake but you can't eat it)

 

Depends on how hard you hit them. If you want to go through the effort of relocating then you might as well get hydros

 

I don't disagree but when hydro cost 8x as much I could see these being a decent option.

 

Def not 8x as much. Durobumps go for just over $200 these days and you can get a set of locked offroad hydros with cans for about $450.

edit: just saw that perry bumps are way more affordable at $90. So 5x at that point

 

You have the fox DSC 2.5's right? Is that 1" the remaining part under the shaft bumper?

 

Tight turns.
