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

Looks good to me! I changed my oil and swithched to Mobil1 synthetic. I think i gained a few ponies too.

 

I like the flames on your TG straps

 

need to do one just like that with the fronts

 

Gave her a wash and wax (myself). I don't trust those car wash places to wax my car properly. What do they care if wax builds up because they don't wipe it down.

Also, did the Seafoam treatment. I love it! First time I've done this to my '01 3.4L and it does idle much smoother. Feels like it shifts smoother as well. I've done it in my 65 mustang a few times before and know it works but I was skeptical and scared to put it in my BABY. I gotta say it helped as it always does.

 

Replaced the stock Tundra shocks with Tundra 5100s. Set passenger on 2nd notch, driver on 3rd notch to combat the Taco lean.

 

Nice, but a whole inch for the lean? I had both of mine at 2.5" and it was barely noticeable. Then I had a full OME with the top plate on the drivers and it was perfect. But it was only a 1/4".

 

Tundra shocks. I get 5 levels of adjustment. It's about 5/8".

 

Gotcha. Good call

 

Wow I remember when my billys looked all shiny and new like that....now they look like rusty old junk. Still work well tho!

 

Do those bump stops make the impact softer?

 

Got some bro lean after the struts are in. 24" from center of the hub to the flare on both sides. No more Taco lean! The ride is firm but not harsh. I tried to flex the front but my leafs are so weak all it did was stuff the rear and nothing up front. I need a bumper and winch.

 

Cleaned it up. First time in months it's been washed.

 

Not today but yesterday, I made my transmission skid plate. I also pulled my seats out to vacuum the truck and while I had them out I took a tennis racket to them. They were dusty as hell.

 

Same here the highest I got was 28. Typically 21-25 summer and 18-20 winter. 50/50 city/highway

 

Looks good. But unfortunately those zerks will probably be knocked off the first time you drag over some timber or rocks
