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

great looking lift!
what size/brand is it?
happy with it?

 

Changed the plugs. I believe that its been about 140k on these plugs, not entirely sure. Man, what a power and smoothness difference after replacing them.
Old vs new

 

^ wow, those are pretty bad!

 

Added more parts to the pile of truck parts behind my shed
for $10 i couldnt pass up the front 4.30 diff and steering rack.
that makes two spare diffs i have lol.

 

Before


After.


the new intake tube/filter are better in every way!

 

you ever have water issues with your air box opened up in the front like that?

 

nope, but if i wash the engine bay i close the hole cause its a deckplate.

 

I liked the sound post tube on mine, I bet that thing screams now

 

i heard a little buzzing when i would turn. so without neglecting my tacos cry for help i headed to the closest automotive store and got some power steering fluid. it is purring again

 

UV'd the corners

 

yea it makes a little more noise you can hear it sucking in air and its loud

 

I will dig up the pics here in a little bit

 

^ That's the one I remember seeing

 

10" bilstein 5150's
AP extended SS brake line
AP Expedition leaf packs in

coming up:
AP 1.5" shackles
OME Exhaust relocate
Beefed Carrier bearing drop

 

Just did this to mine too. I did a double take when I saw this pic because that's exactly how mine looked too. Especially the left bank. I did wires too, BIG improvement.

 

Suspension twins! lol

 

Shiiit i used to run my race plugs until black haha not on purpose of course..

 

You should never have one while driving - but it's always a good idea when washing your engine to put a plastic bag over your Air filter, battery etc...

 

Do you already have a OME exhaust bracket? If you don't I have one I only used for a couple weeks if you want it.
