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

Nice! We just finished welding up our frame this weekend. I built the rear suspension today.

I loved the body paneling you guys used last year.

 

Thanks! Yea, it came out pretty sick. Gotta love bead rolling. You guys going to Bellingham this year?

 

Crappy pic but here's the lights wired up.

 

Thanks man.

 

Yeah, our school can only afford to send us to one competition and I've always wanted to see the PNW. 25 hour drive though!

 

Hah! Have fun with that. Only 8ish for me lol. They seem to have a pretty wide range of comp locations every year though. Someone always gets the short end and gets a mutli-day cross country drive.

 

I prefer the long distance. I'll take a free cross country road trip with a bunch of buddies any day!

 

Blacked out my bumpers today...and I am waiting for my color matched Satoshi from HomerTaco and my retrofit before switching my chrome grill out but here is phase 1:

did a sweet fender /cab mod, shoulda bought sliders, when i was snow bashing around yankee hill this weekend in CO. dont be too jealous guys!


also now my elocker wont engage...sweet. hoping it just got to much snow or moisture on the plug, gonna take the cover off and clean around it later this afternoon. hopefully it starts working would have been nice to be locked for the deep ass snow we were wheeling through.

 

Nice

Over the weekend I added a rear diff breather extension. I also did the 12v outlets always on.

 

Adds Character!

 

Took advantage of the 60 and sunny weather...
