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

Note: That picture was from my Dad's 2002 Tacoma. The 1999 Tacoma's fuse box looks a little bit different, but it works the exact same way

 

Yea, did that mod 14 years ago.

 

You know it.
I also put red stage gel behind the map light lenses with a rectangular cut out in line with the little rectangular diffuser. This bathes the cab (red truck) in soft red light, matching the red courtesy lights on the doors, but allows a beam of bright white light to fall right in the driver and passengers lap. It is tough to read a map with red light.

 

Sounds like you're going the special ops route

 

Who uses a map nowadays

 

Just got my Eibach 3" Coils and 5100s installed up front. Need my leafs ASAP to get rid of this retarded 'bro lean'... fml

had a question about the front diff drop kit from Toytec here if anyone has any advice:

washed and waxed

 

After being on vacation for the week and letting my wife & daughter drive it....

I began the "apology detail" ......starting with the toolbox; completely emptied and re-organized ( how the hell do we collect so much stuff )....then my grandson reminded me he had a flat on his bike so the Tacoma became a "learning bench" .....kid took to tools and actually pulled the tire away from the rim WITHOUT any damage and got the new tube 3/4 of the way around before it turned on him...

Bike is back together with good tires and I decided to finish my night by greasing all of the tailgate and toolbox moveable parts with a 5 year olds help of course...

 

Nobody wants to sit in those seats anyway haha

Exactly how mine is! LOL I have like 5 jackets, extra clothes...tons of other stuff...you never know when you'll need them!

 

I just posted over in the eibach/ 5100 thread on your install. You have the perch bucket set at the 2nd setting on the 5100's...for the eibach coils they have to be on the 1st.....your cv's are gonna be hurting.

 

Is $75 a fair price for this? It's a 2" but I plan on cutting the pucks down to 1".

 

Any pics from building those or thoughts? Particularly on recessing the subs like you did. Keep meaning to build those, but it keeps getting sidelined by other issues. I blew up my 12" sub that took up half the bench space back there. Definitely nice to have the space back and I'm not eager to loose it, but dammit does the stock sound system suck haha.

 

Ah yep good call, I just replied to your comment

 

Not sure if I'd cut it down though

 

Seems to me if you're looking to sell, it'd be easier to market if the buyer has the option to cut it down.

 

Got it back from the body shop

 

Looks awesome! Glad you got it all taken care of!

 

Finished up my CB install.
