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

Arnt Cat's filled with bb's?

 

ordered new moog tie rod ends. yaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Still obsessing over my next suspension improvement.

 

No, with rare metals to absorb emission stuff. They can break dowtho and become lose which can also result in a plugged cat

you always will haha

 

Cleaned her up and cut my sliders off!

 

Doing the same thing bro! Gear oil and tranny too

 

Redoing them tonight.

 

btw will this get me pulled over?

 

Nice!

 

meh as long as it still blinks ur fine. just replace when u can

 

yeah it still blinks

 

well if you lived up here not to worry, they have lots of other things to pull over

 

I dont even have visible Turn signals up front. Not once has it been an issue.

Do the mod where you relocate it into the corner lamp.

 

Coils go on next week or mayb Friday!!! Getting the bumpers in a few weeks. If funds r still there.

 

Kind of detailed my engine.

Followed the process in this post (using same products): http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/detailing/176335-engine-bay-cleaning-hot-cold-2.html#post5064380

I am only mildly impressed with the products and my technique. Maybe because of the 100 degree heat, it didn't work like it was supposed to... but you can clearly see the "during pics" the degreaser left a white residue that could not be washed off no matter how powerful the jet (no pressure washer). The nastier parts I used a toothbrush to scrub with the degreaser....

You can also see the spotting the detailer left on some parts, as well as the white residue from the degreaser not coming off, in the "after picture" Again I don't know if it's the heat outside or not, but I followed the directions on the can to a "t"

Before:




During:




After detailing, letting it evaporate for 20 mins, idling for 5 minutes, then driving for 20 minutes:

 

wipe all that down with armor all probably will get rid of the streaking

 

replaced front brakes(rotors and pads), oil change and new air filter.
