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

there you go

Often they rust and clog and can no longer vent. when this happens the easiest route to vent pressure happens. thru a seal

For water the stock vent will suck water in if you go deeper than the axle so extending it will solve this and the stock vent is re-routed

 

did u do the test before hand to see if that was where the play was?

 

To be completely honest, it didn't seem like there was any play at all but I figured why not do it, I had the time and it's not like it cost me anything. And if anything else at least it can't ever work its way loose.

 

Whoa, that all just flew right over my head. So what's wrong with my rear dif? What do I do?

 

Yeah I've been meaning to do the diff breather mod ever since I joined this site.

Still haven't gotten around to it

 

No run it over to the line -X joint and your golden!

 

I would if it was in my budget...

 

Same here, i did the herculiner myself and it looks like shit 3yrs later. Wish i would have line-x'd mine.

 

I had mine linex'd over 5 years ago and it still looks like the day they sprayed it. Something I encountered there but haven't since.... someone was having them linex his work boots.: don't think they were steel toes that's why he was just getting the tips sprayed as if they were, to make them last longer.
And to keep the thread theme, all I did to my tacoma today was drive it. I'm okay with that.

 

My brothers 84 is line-x'd and still looks like the day it came out of the shop

 

I have all the parts sitting in my truck and I still haven't.

 

I felt the same way when I did steering rack bushings. No change. Hell even solid motor and tranny mounts I don't think made much difference.

 

Magnaflow 14" is going on tomorrow at 1:30..

 

Not fair, I have to wait till thurs

 

plus mine will be all shiny and stainless.. Unlike yours haha. That way when people are laying under my truck looking up, they'll think "Hot damn what a shiny muffler." Bishes <3 tha shiny haha

 

hehe, thats what I did.

 

So, this means you can never adjust the wheel now right?

 

Where did u get the solid trans mounts. My trans mount is on a one way train to death

 

Yeah, the hose fitting just above the cable is where I can see tension. Makes me think that if I get any flex at all in the rear end (not likely, but I'd rather play it safe when it comes to brakes), it will really be under strain.

 

I think it's a TG bomb proof one. Manual only.

But you can just solid the tranny without doing the motor too. YouHAVE to do both. Or none.
