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

got my rack to an acceptable point to stop for a while. there will be more add ons to come but other things are more important for now. lemme know what you guys think.

 

I like everything but the pegs. But overall I thunk the basket and spare carrier is awesome. Maybe fill that basket bottom with dimple die sheets of steel?

 

I like it all man! I wish I could weld...

 

Ive had mine down below the E line and no light came on. I didnt want to risk it so i just filled up.

 

yeah gas light comes on well past the E. Ive seen it a few times being poor

 

^x2!

 

Did the fog light mod today, barley beat the rain!

 

Really cause in my manual it says there is a 16.9 so basically 17 gal tank?

 

ordered this & some mesh for a 1st gen satoshi


Moved some stuff from the old house, 1/2 way done...


and also cleaned my toolbox up and organized a bit, and mounted my spare tire in the bed kinda baja style-ish, no reason why just figured id see how it looked, looks ok though.



What you guys think? My spare will eventually be on my bedrack, this is just temporary and nothing bolted in holding it or nothing just a ratchet strap, but would still take someone a few minutes to take it the way it have the strap routed.

 

x2 ive only got 17 max

 

where did yall move too?

and weve gotta get those bed racks built for out trucks!!!

 

My gas light comes on just above the e line. guess im lucky

 

WE moved about 15 miles away back in the woods way out further in the country for my new found umm drink making...wait nevermind

only botu 10 extra miles down 26 towards charleston, @ exit 125.

& no kiddin, im so ready to get workin on it but found out we could move this soon so i been busy all weekend, but im going to work on getting the material this week sometime and getting a welder, prob stick, and hopefull work on it the weekend after next sometime.

 

o cool, no hurry ive been busy myself but when you do ill try to come to your place and we can work on it.

 

sweet deal man, ill keep you posted on when i get the material, its drivin lookin at all the drawings and what not and not being able to see it come to shape, but i did however place my "mock up" rack in the bed todayh and quickly realized that you wont be able to have a toolbox with the way we re-designed the tire carrier

 

well i think for mine i would still like to have it with the angled tire carrier and i may get a tool chest that sits under the bed rack

 

Yea man thats fine we will just need your truck so we can fab it up right then and there or at least get some measurments and fab it out of wood so i can go back and make it from the pipe. I really like the design and the way my drawing came out but i dont wann get rid of my toolbox, cause i like my lights to much up there, & dont want them on the rack cause id have to worry about wires, and i already have a handheld light like you want to put on the rack...
