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

Get new rear bushings. Might even come with them. But always replace when you haven em apart.




Chad nice work man!

 

I'm assuming this isn't the final product? It appears some of the bars aren't fully welded... Maybe it just looks like that?

 

Whoops you're right Monte! The rear bushings come with em, just not the front. Thanks

 

That was pretty much just all tacked together before welding.. I will add some more tube to it when I build my set

 

The kit I have on my rig is the "airlift" setup. Has compressor and dual pressure gauges (one for each bag). If ur really interested I can put the details together as far part #'s and such. The new bags I have are 10.5" max where the stock vehicle application were 6.5" max length. Pm me if want the #'s.

 

This was tacked and fitment stage.. I'm sure he will post more pics later

 

Thanks to SGT Taco, got some wiring done up.

 

Just thought I'd ask someone here before calling to order tomorrow...


but does anyone know if the $20 option for dust boots for front 5100 struts on DSM are the accordion style or the other style like the OME boots?

 

Looks good though man!

 

seafoamed the old gal and did a very in depth analysis (about as far as I could go without pulling the engine apart)

and changed the sparkplugs.

Runs a lot smoother now

 

No, they are airlift. Give them a call when ur ready. They were more than helpful with me. I was half expecting them to point me in the direction of some sort of block, or some other spacer device. I was very pleased with the solution offered by the tech, and the new bags were $80ea. I think the longer bags are #50203

is that placed right behind the battery? custom plate?

 

Looks like it. Looks like he got it tucked in there good.

 

Looks great, maybe rear doors too???

 

Yar, custom plate. Took some 16ga sheet steel from Lowe's, hand bent it using some clamps and 1x2 poplar then SGT Taco cut it to fit and painted it. All secured using some self tapping screws and a bit of pre-drilling.

Going to have to revisit it when I get the stereo amp and winch installed but the way it sits now, not sure much will change. Turned out way better than I expected for throwing it together in 30 minutes with 20 of that waiting for the paint to dry.

And, yeah, it sits behind the battery. I'll get a better picture done up tomorrow when I have light again.

 

Like dis
