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

ha ha i might have to find a kid and use some paint ha ha

 

did the sub and amp for a 2nd gen. First if you go mudding make sure you coat the positive cable to the battery to protect..... second make sure the plug below the center console is in place..... third dont try alone ha ha ha.

 

Ended up having to move to the garage and even with a fan going I still thought I was going to die. That shit stinks and is super strong! Between that and plastidipping again today I don't how I'm not high out of my mind. Dyed bumper, dipped emblems on the sides of the truck, and dipped my door handles. I'll put pics up tomorrow.

 

I probably lost at least 15 IQ points dyeing my interior pieces this summer

 

Do you have a pic of the after? I've often wanted to dye mine black but I don't want to deal with doing the dash, carpet, or seats.

 

Yea the last 2 are just the knock off duallys in spot pattern.

I just used an old hella or some sort of bracket similar and flipped it upside down to bolt the dually to then bolted it up under the plastic vent piece. It's just temporary and I'll change up completely soon hopefully when I start a "semi exo"

Edit. The top is just the 20" bar and the bottom pic is the duallys by themselves

Here's the duallys from outside by themselves.

That fence is about 125' away

 

Can't believe I may be getting rid of my Tacoma in a couple days.

 

what the heck? why? not like you even wheeled it lol

My build has the whole process.

I didn't do the carpet or seats and highly recommend not doing it. The dye really makes the fabric stiff and "scratchy" feeling.

This spring I'm going to replace my carpet with a dark charcoal and I swapped out my seats to one that happened to be black/dark gray

 

Yeah I was actually just reading through your build. And I didn't mean use the dye on the carpet and seats, that would be horrible haha. I did the carpet on the door panels on my last Tacoma and it would almost rub my knee raw.

Oh and I'm so glad I read your build. I'm fixing my fauking tailgate handle tomorrow!!!! Edit: Hopefully. I spaced and forgot that my dad dropped an 800 pound 4 wheeler on the tailgate so I am probably just shit out of luck since my tail gate looks like this \/ except not as drastic.

 

Almost forgot. Hit a milestone today.



Had my camera app on my phone ready to go but I missed 225,000 even because a hot girl pulled up beside me on the way to school this morning. Damn you penis!

 

Way to go jacob!

 

lol, nice dude.

 

If it's just that tailgate panel on the inside of the gate, you'll be amazed at how much abuse you can dish out on that thing banging it back into shape.

If it's the actually body piece of the tailgate, you're probably SOL without spending large amounts of money.

 

Thanks man! I can't take all the credit.. My dad put about 60k miles on it. I've only put 3k haha.

Still running like a champ!

Haha I wish it was just the panel on the inside. I'll post a picture tomorrow. You'll probably chuckle. I'm actually amazed that my tailgate handle still functions but it still drives me nuts that the handle doesn't go all the way in.

 

Haha, happens every time.

 

Wtf? Why?

 

Not today, but I have pictures of the lift and a little flex.
