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

Thanks man! Yes those are new tundra cvs with a 930 boot and inner lip ground off for a tad more articulation. They are from vatozone and have lifetime warranty! Just painted the shafts red to pretty it up and add some flavor(my man Adams good idea!)

Another view

 

sweet man! I hope to LT my front some day..should post some pics of the stance

 

Got a bunch in my build thread vvvvv

 

I just watched dr, rdc, TTORA, and here for weeks, no months for a good used kit. Scored it for $1200 in great shape, new upper uniballs and bushings. Just needed new lower uniballs. Not bad deal, wanted the new burg so I could run bumps and bypasses(eventually ) then had to wait over 8 months till I had all the stuff together.

 

Well i won't need bypasses haha just what you have basically, i won't be doing any actually LT running haha

but dang, thats a lik 50% off practically!

good job on that!

Truck looks sick man

 

Dude u can find deals just gotta keep an eye out.

 

I know haha i swear I'm gonna get my ARB lockers off of TTORA. They seem to pop up every other month. And i got a pair of LF 240s for 100 bucks on here

and even more deals I'm just not ready for LT yet. Ill redo my whole suspension after all the armor and lockers.

Do i absolutely HAVE to get new fenders too??

 

Yes the arms are to wide and tires will shred stock fenders. It is a serious step! If ur doing just trail stuff no fast stuff a good mid travel coilover a uca is probably best. I loved my mid travel setup!

 

So a 2.0 CO? or still a 2.5 for mid?

and idk man..i have seen pics of LT on trails..and seems to be pretty nice haha And I'm not stoked about new fenders..but thats just cause i don't want to have to get em painted lol oh well, be worth it

 

Hell ya u can hit trails with long travel, if trails only u have shocks valved for it. 2.5" is better than 2" for mid travel if u can get em for first gens not sure. It is 7"s wider than stock though so tight trails will be fun

 

holy crap...7??..damn haha

maybe i will just go mid travel...hahaha

 

Yup 3.5" per side

 

ohhh right right...hmmmm...that would be interesting...


well..maybe ill just go Mid travel then haha idk, thats a long ass ways down the road so i have plenty of time to think about it.

 

Put my Smittybilt Nerf Bars on last night, took just over an hour including trying to cook supper on the grill at the same time...

Bought them here for $175, I really like how they don't stick way out, just far enough to step on!

 

just don't hit any hard trails with em! haha

look good tho.

 

Nah, I'm a pavement kind of guy... Except for when I park by the river to unload my Kayak or Canoe... It's only 2-wheel drive anyway...

 

well then should suit you just fine!

 

not really a truck mod, but I "modded" my presence here on TW - check out my "nostalgia thread of old rides and toys" link in my signature... posted up some pics of my old car and jeep...

 

havent driven my truck in a week

but i attempted to make it a car... sorta fail

 

LMAO love this ^^^^^ my son is watching the movie as I write this.
