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

But ya don't mind putting a hole in your head.

Seriously, you're better of securing it in some fashion.

 

I don't know where the heck it would go since its in the box laying down against the back of the seat.

 

For those of you concerned for my safety, I have taken action:

 

I just felt like that needed to get posted haha. The box is fine.

 

Nice quick easy access.

 

Damn, my freakin receiver is seized on to the tow thingy... What's a good way to get it off? Tie it to a tree and mash the gas pedal?? Lol..I tried hammering it but no luck. Also sprayed wd40 with no luck

 

The tree idea sounds like it may work honestly lol. I do want to see a video though lol

 

Yeah that sounds kinda smart. Just soak it more with pb blaster or the new penetrating wd-40 whatever and let it sit a little before you do that. Just don't floor it in 4lo popping that sucker out and kill someone behind you. Use caution

 

I think you should post a video of how to!!

 

torch and hammer might work.

 

haha, shoulda posted that earlier

Its the best spot there is without mounting out, at least I have one now unlike many people out there.

 

Screw WD40 or PB Blaster, from your pantry, put a little gelatin on it. That stuff will free up anything, every time.

 

Yes it can be pinned open or closed.

 

50/50 mix of acetone and ATF is the best stuff I've used for freeing up stuck things.

 

Obviously you have not tried gelatin.



The first and last resort.
Just don't use to much "there Butch".

 

I got some custom TRD decals made by "adub4real" today. They are gonna look sick. i will post some pics up when they arrive and once installed.

 

packed up for camping, heading out in the morning. got the cvt on!!
thinking it is my carrier bearing causing wobbles, it has a decent amount of play compared to another tacoma's I messed around with (thanks for sale tacoma sitting in a field)


diff drops are like 30$ plus 15-18 shipping. insane for 2 bolts and some spacing.
seriously considered just buying a stack of washers today but couldnt find a 8" bolt to save my life.

anyone think this would be a bad idea

Don't use washers. Diff drops are cheap. If you going to do one, do it right. Check out Cornfed Suspensions. That's where I got mine, it was like $15 IIRC.

Edit: ok it was $20. Still it was equal quality to more expensive ones.
