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

How long till you sas?

 

Fixed

 

I like my 4.88's 5speed supercharged on 33's.

 

Yeah I will have to decide. I may do 5.29's because idk if I'll get another case. I'd just be worried about 5.29's with 35's on the highway. Wonder how high that would tach at 70?

Mine is auto. I'll have to look up one of those gearing charts for manual vs auto's. I would lovvve to have a supercharger! One popped up on craigslist a few weeks ago for $900...

 

Off to your build I go... haha

 

I want to make sweet love to your taco...

 

saw this on facebook, thought it was pretty cool bc its a taco

 

Finally finished Bed Armor'ing my bed rack. Going to let it cure for two days before I mount all the Quick Fists and tie downs. Then I will mount it to my bed and throw my topper over it for my weekend trip into the mountains.

Still need to figure out a way to remove and put back on my topper with ease.

 

Looks great Madjik! ^^

 

Thanks man.

I might drag it outside tomorrow in sunlight, if possible, and see if I missed any spots.

Jon did an amazing job on this.

 

Looks dam good bro.

 

33x12.5s and 4.10s blows. Mpgs will die with such a short drive. Truck won't warm up. I went from 18 to 10 .

4.88s with an auto are even recommended with 33s. So defiantly 4.88s for 35s.

Yes you will have to tub.

4.56s for 33s and an manual. 4.88s and 35s is just like stock ratio or damn close.

If your planning on 37s I'd go 5.29s. And be ready to tub A LOT.

If you want 37s I'd just get 33s for now so then you save up more for 37s and then only tub once.

Looks great Jon did a good job.

Find a friend to help lift it?

 

What is a tub?

 

I can get this on by myself no problem.

The topper is another story. Neighbor will have to help out.

This weekend I'll be running with both on for a pretty decent sized road trip into the mountains and back. Just to see what fuel economy is with both.

 

Do NOT google tub girl

 

Shouldn't have said that....*geyser*

 

Tubing the fire wall. You cut out the fire wall in the wheel wells. And re weld in sheet metal so it's further back to fit larger tires.

Required for 35-37" tires.

I was talking about the topper haha

 

I also went with the 1-2 second short burst while moving technique.

Still globbed like a biatch. It's the nozzle man, it sucks.

 

Huh odd. I've never had an issue.

 

Plan to by the end of this year.. still throwing axle ideas around.. but once I leave this big shutdown up here in ND im going to a pipe welding school in texas and will hit the roads again after that so ill be saving up! & ill make more there than I am now and if I continued what I was making now I could sas in 6 weeks easy.. so long story short.. ASAP!
