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

I took the day off work. (Wasn't feeling well), and I decided to take advantage of the warm 25ºF weather in Fairbanks in the middle of the winter. I don't know when I'll get a chance to see *that* again for a few months.

Anyway, my two new 02 sensors arrived (Denso) from Underdog Racing, whose prices were competitive, and I installed those. Then cleaned the throttle body, and Seafoamed my engine. First time for everything, that...

While underneath there, I noticed a lot of oil coming from what appears to be my steering rack / left CV boot. I it smells like synthetic gear oil in my front end. Uh-oh. Payday is Friday... grrr....

 

I went with blue and love them!

 

painted grill surround, emblem, and skid a week ago. changed spark plugs and air filter today.

this is what happens with extra paint laying around and boredom.

 

Truely you should weld it fully around the edges so water doesn't find its way in and do what it does best.

 

Yeah someone else suggested that but living in AZ it shouldnt be a problem. We dont even know what rust is lol

 

lucky!

 

Talked to Jerry from BAMF to get something custom for the Truck.

 

both O2 sensors? How much did they come out too? If you don't mind me asking

 

which ones you end up ordering?

 

???

???

 

got a whopping 10-11 mpg again today lol and just to think..i already want 35s..

 

Ordered wheel spacers all around, cool white superbright leds, changed my buddies 2.7l plugs and wire, and had a flat fixed....

 

Yeah D Rings. Now if I could only find a couple of bumpers to put these on

 

I have a feeling they are coming


im stoked to see how your truck looks man. Since ill have a rear here soon and am thinking of the bushwhackers too..

 

Your Stoked??? I was telling Tim that its a little wierd to be this excited about a bunch of metal!!!

Should be here next week and I'll be sure to take a bunch of pics for you.

 

Ordered 6 ballistic joints today

 

I have been there! haha and now am again almost for my custom rear


But yea..its kinda odd haha and i look forward too it! Gonna be sick..im curious how the rear will line up with the bushwhackers.

 

where did u pick these up from

 

Well there will be enough of us vultures looking to scavenge your truck that you could make a decent amount of cash. That's if the ins company will let you pillage the truck.

 

JLee's got BW's with full rear wrap. I think he said it was a great fit.

Your tire carrier idea is interesting to me. I'm rethinking they way I have mine and am considering CBI off roads style.
