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

Smittybuilt one is $30

And I don't want to go with a Warn because it doesn't come in black

 

Uhh you sure about that???? I thought I was first

 

That's the one. I'll think about it.
I'll throw it in with a set of skids : )

 

Whoever brings the money first lol but idc man, your on the list with Blake as well as about 6 others so it doesn't matter to me.. You still want my skid and rear bumper?

 

The skid probably for sure. The bumper idk. I guess I'll let blake get that haha

 

Works for me man, if neither of y'all I know someone will jump on it probably

 

Changed/flushed my coolant.

 

I like the notes you put on the jugs lol

 

I'm thirsty now... Thanks!

 

Started

Swapped wheels and tires

Debadged-

Open a small package from Wheelers

 

Not today but recently:



Took out the original bedliner that came with the truck that I am assuming the previous owner had never removed. I plan on wire brushing as much of the rust as I can and since it already has a hole in the bed, spray what I can with rust inhibitor and put the plastic liner back in. The problem I have now is the hardware got fucked up pulling the liner out, anyone know where I can find new clips?

 

I should probably do this, but I plan to have it Line-x'd anyways.

 

I would go the line-x route if it wasn't for that gaping hole by the passenger rear wheel well. I do like the added "shock" protection I get when I just throw logs and shit into the truck too.

 

when u line-x get them to go an inch or 2 over the sides on the body like mine. It looks slick and helps prevent body damage when ur lugging stuff in and out of the bed

 

Yeah, the main reason I want to get rid of the plastic liner is because my dad had one in his Tundra and it held water causing rust.

Definitely, I already used some Rustoleum spray on bedliner to do that. My old Tacoma got scraped up when I would load stuff into the truck because I didn't have any bedliner over the rails.

 

Ugh! I'm dreading doing this to mine! Although, now that I have ants crawling everywhere (the hubby lugged a load of wood one day that had ants in it), I suspect they have a nest under the bed liner Luckily, they're not inside the cab though. I would also love to get a spray in bedliner...maybe it would be worth going without any liner for a bit since I have a cap and don't haul too much that would mess up the bed. But then, I'd love the have the cap off so that I can thoroughly clean the bed once the liner is out. Guess I shoulda done it before I put the cap on anyway

 

Lol. Step 1: Get a hose. Step 2: stand in the back and just flush ur ants away. Step 3: Drive to linex dealer and they'll do the rest. Just let em spray over it and u won't even remember what it used to look like!

 

Very interested to see the outcome. What springs did you go with?
Where in FL are you located?

 

She is now nekid (no shell) and I got her washed up for the big day tomorrow.

Why did you decide to get tires then a lift?
Anyway, looks good
