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

Here's a teaser till I get the rest of them up

 

Lifted! Have a lot more pics in my build. I have a little bit more rake than what is pictured. There's about 250lbs of shit in the bed.

 

That's cheating! You didn't put the shocks on.

 

Can you post some pictures of how you did your exhaust? I hacked mine off today and don't want to leave it dumped. I love the way you did yours!

 

Ha I'm going to box the frame and put a new crossmember in for upper shock mounts just ran out of time today. Flex will probably be about the same tbh but it's not maxed out in this picture. Hill wasn't big enough haha. Rear shocks are 12" 5125's.

 

Dug the silicone sealant out of the gaps of the frame reinforcement plates and put seam seal in there instead. Much better product.

Will hit it up with a fresh coat of Bed Armor and call it good.

 

Borke my clutch today, I did.

 

when I compress my clutch pedal noises are made. any insight is appreciated.

also installed my boxrocket bed rack.




greyhound treats packages with extreme care, so I had to get some assistance from said light pole.

 

If it is a creaking/groaning sound coming from the area of the pedal itself, it is the pedal spring. They use a torsional instead if linear and it rubs on itself making funny noises. Mine is most prevalent when it is humid.

Grats! on the bed rack. Adam makes good stuff.

 

i attached a video, its not from the interior.

 

Apple hate Flash.

Get a friend to actuate the pedal while you poke your head around to pinpoint the source. Clutches are simple. Check the pedal, master and slave cylinders ans the bell housing. If it is from the bell housing, gotta be the throw bearing, throw fork or the clutch spring plate.

 

Looks great installed! Glad you finally got it where it needed to be. Sorry again about Greyhound. It's only happened a couple times. They have usually been stellar.

 

no worries Adam, I appreciate how much you are willing to help always! I love seeing the rack back there.

 

Finished up my homemade plate bumper. More pics in build

 

Mine did that for years. Always thought it was the slave cylinder (based on where the noise was coming from with not much investigation and what I've read on here)

But then I just replaced both the master and slave cylinder and it still squeaks like that.

My only thought is that it's the clutch fork (or whatever that thing is called that the slave cylinder pushes on)

Bed rack looks sick, btw

 

Mine squeaks when I press and depress clutch u can hear it inside and outside truck

 

I will be installing my TC UCA's after work!!!! I will have ICON UCA's for sale in a few days... Never used. Just installed and removed. One UCA has some scratching from dyl0n being a dick while helping me install. And one slug adapter is missing. Other than that they are prefect.

 

Same here.

 

Why did you change?

 

Finally install 5100 billstien and eibach suspension. Got 3" lift in back and about 3.5" in front. Today going to install my diff drop today. The little driving I have done it already feels a lot better.
