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

I don't want the truck to need a lot of work when I sell it. I think it'll be more appealing if I get all the small things fixed first. And it's mostly time I have to spend. I know time equals money.... but I enjoy it. And actually, I should end up slightly making money re-doing the rear suspension after I sell the expos and shackles. The ride is way to stiff with the chopped bed and the current 10" Billies are blown and leaking anyway... As for the bedliner, I already have the actual bedliner in my garage. Might as well use it. I most likely won't put on 37s, but I will if I won't lose much money on the deal after selling my current set.

Just time....

I already bought the replcement beater.... an 89 celica. I finally got it reliable for daily commuter the other day.

Nice, man. That should withstand some beating!

 

I'm confused I thought celicas weren't good offroad Are you gonna lift it and convert to 4x4

 

lol That's the point. Gotta put a hold on the hobbies for a while.

 

5100's front and rear.

 

You mean responsibilities and all that crap?

That's what took me so damn long to get mine, sucks but you gots ta do what ya gots ta do. Good luck!

 

TOOK THAT SHOT JUST FOR YOU, BEN!!!!

 

Yup. Thanks, man!

 

Man 35s look so big on 1st gens already, but on a bobbed and dovetailed bed, they look even bigger!

Can't wait to see it all finished

 

Yeah but then the 7th injector kit will be more which I would do this time around.

 

Yeah I don't do major work or anything other then the usual maintance and what not on 3 cars, but it's held up for a year and the BIGGEST THING IT WAS FREE from my grandmother's house... but if I am changind fluids i just pull back the carpet and lay down some loose linoleum I have arround the garage a 5ftx5ft piece and clean up is super easy!

 

picked up new batch of stickers to go out with the racks I've been building.

 

That is bad ass. Where can I look at the stuff you have made and prices and such?

 

That is fricken sick

I have not been building things for anyone but myself until the last month or so. Right now I'm just building some bedracks. You can see details in my build thread if the different things I've built. PM me for pricing/options.

Thanks!

 

Drove it to the "polls" and voted...

 

Drove it to Deerfield Beach to drop off my custom guitar pick necklace order for the Joe Bonamassa web store

 

Put together a switch panel to fit in the empty radio poket space.

 

Great looking truck. Looks like you nailed that stance.
