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

It's all good. That's why it just sits in the garage in between wheeling and camping trips!

Also bought a 90 degree coax elbow so that the cb would sit more flush. Took out the bracket holding the external speaker so I would have more room on the ARB switches.



Selling my cbi premium tire carrier if anybody is interested and a spectra cai.

Anyone know what this could be? I noticed the other day when I came to a red light I could hear something rattling in the middle of the dash behind the 2 AC vents. I gave the dash a good ol slap and it didn't go away, which is weird cause slapping something usually fixes most issues haha. But anyway I turned the heater control knob from cool to heat and then back to cool and it went away. The next day same thing, and I turned the knob again and it went away

 

Anyone interested in a locking glove box latch? I've got 2 of em and of course you'd have to get it fitted to your ignition key or they can make you a new key at a locksmith.

I believe I paid about $15 to have them create a key for mine. I'll be posting up a FS thread later tonight.

 

Either of them tan?

 

Yes, it is. They are off my project truck. Odd things where the PO's favorite thing to do haha.

lol! That's the truth. Racecar carnage right there.

I wish, but in due time. Hopefully it will grow shortly after I'm out of college.

 

Rebuilt the starter, then spent entirely too long doing my rear suspension. Added an add a leaf to my wheeler's 5 pack and some 10" 5125's. I gained 3"+ of droop. Gonna see what's up with the tuck when I have time. Now my rear arches are 41.5" and my fronts are 39.5". I figure once I throw my motorcycle in the bed the leaf will settle a little.

DROOOOP...finished at like 1230am =/

 

8-11 city for me..

12-16 hwy

 

Hmm...

17-19 city
18-22 hwy

My average is like 13 right now because I used a quarter tank to drive 6 miles on the trails.

 

Took Taco Terrors advice and restored my head light with a 3M kit,

 

haha, see how much better that looks.

Lets see a pic of the entire front.

 

Damn good job.

 

Makes sense... I always wondered why they mount the shocks opposite like that. Let us know how it works out. I've been good... Pretty busy lately.

 

did you remove the pack to install the aal? I need to do this soon

 

On yeah

Thanks.

 

Did you clear coat it?

If not, it'll be hazed up within a couple of months.

 

17.5 mpg in town with a bad cadilatic converter

 

a Few pics of my recent mods. Fiberglass fenders with about 10 hours each prefit repair time, pulled my rear bedsides, dents fixed, side exit exhaust, weld on nerfs, front bumper built, fabtech coil overs, and paint

 

Oh my! Thats a damn good looking truck, I am ready to see that bumper installed.

Take the advice.

 

Not yet, I thought the kit came with a clear coat. Unfortunately that wasn't the case.


Can I use regular auto body (paint) clear coat?
