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

What kind of lift do you have?

 

Snow mod.... Ol' Red is growling to go hit it.

(take note of the tip of the upright wiper just barely poking through)

 

Its a 2'' top spacer up front and 1.25'' daystar shackles, and a 3'' body lift.

All that was installed by the PO.....all that shit is coming off for a real lift very soon.










<------------lift specs in my truck profile too. I actually fill mine out

 

Weather is shit here cowtown today, so I drove it to work. I mean, that's the reason of it's existence, inclement weather use!

 

made me a build thread:

\/

 

Ah that must be it I could not find where to enter in the distance i went.

only tank size, engine size..

and yeah i got 265/75

 

Nothing major, but put on my sickspeed black/carbon fiber antenna.

 

I unloaded my bank account on it today. Rear leafs, shocks, shock mounts, perches, TC bash plates, ubolts, brake lines, DOM, Hobart 190 welder..... and some more I cant remember at the moment

 

Cool stuff....It'll thank you for it.

 

I got my first opportunity to pull someone outta the ditch with the lil Tacoma. A 3/4 ford plow truck.

 

/\ nice.

 

I rebuilt my slave cylinder, but now my clutch master cylinder shit the bed.

The clutch is engaging like 2'' off the floor, and sometimes wont engage at all. I bled the fawk out of it thinking I still had air in the system, but no dice.

If I have someone hold the clutch to the floor and I look at the arm that goes into the tranny I can watch it slowly recoil to the resting position like no one is holding the clutch down.

Everyone agree w/ master cylinder?

 

These are some pics of my freshly painted rims and debadged everything except rear trd sticker. Lemme know what ya'll think!!! oh and i have no idea what kind of rims they are.
before and after pics...only one before pic though! haha

 

those look great. I will be paiting my rims this weekend.

 

THANKS!!! first time ever doing it and later this week me and my buddy are doing his jeep. I would advise you get a sander piece that could be used with a drill...hand sanding sucks and it took me from 1130 till 10 min before i posted pics. but well worth it and I'm happy with how they came out. heck even mom likes them!!!
EDIT: i use the .96 cent rattle can paint from walmart and the $3 rattle can clear coat from walmart as well. but they are flat black.

 

Took off the roll-cover and dropped in a duraliner.

 

Looks great.

Nice work on the rims. Paint specs please. edit: nvm... saw your edit that mentioned it.

Also, in my humble opinion, you should turn the white letters inside on the tires. Your truck is so clean looking now, the lettering seems distracting.

 

Just got done changing the spark plugs on my '04 Taco 2.7L, tried changing the PCV valve but couldn't find it to save my life... LOL

I put in NJK, the old ones were Denso and appeared to be rather worn down... No oil on the threads thank goodness.

 

i mentioned it to the people that put them on but oh well. i will on my next set or ill have them do it next time they balance tires...this up coming week.
