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

LOL! I e-mailed on Monday but wasn't available until Thursday. At least I can take consolation in knowing it ended up with a member on TW.

I already have a set of 2nd gens, but I wanted another set to go bronze/gold, so I guess we're in the same boat. Got any pics of the camper?

 

If anyone has advice for this thread on wiring to LightForce lights, please help a brotha out

Is it wrong I find that funny?^^^^^

 

washing is over rated

how i left mine sitting in wy

Oh im sorry..i didn't know you were trying to park under me..

 

i laughed

 

nope. because i did as well.

 

I laughed too.... Find it kinda funny from the picture the Tacoma doesn't look scratched... That Camry is fffffffuuuuuccccckkked.

Hopefully it's not badly damaged

 

FIFY



Taco FTW

 

Mazda 3.... Yeah that's it.... I was close

 

Added a switch and door illumination.

 

*boop*

PS. Nice Aperature sticker... I may or may not have gone on flebay and picked one up just because of that

I was tempted to get a portal guy and have one on my camper window and the other on my access window but I have my camper off too much for that to make sense.

I'll get some pictures of it but here is the one when I first got it...



And I do powdercoating so were you looking to have a set done or did you want one set in both colors?

 

Old axle out new one in!

3 inch lift and 1 inch diff drop and still bad cv angle don't understand.

 

Got a pic of the diff drop?

 

That's gonna leave a mark......

 

Lower ball joint let loose? Oh i see what you did there!

 

No problem. Ill power wash it

 

Diff drop is def an improvement on the 1st gens, not so much on the 2nd. However, you dont get an exact "1" drop", it just drops the front of your diff, putting it at an angle. It wasnt enough for me either.

Matt, do the boot slide mod. I used some brake cleaner on the axle to take the finnish/paint off, applied some 3M Super Weatherstrip Adhesive (local Auto shop should have this) on the axle (let dry until its tacky as per instruction on tube/box), and slide the boot down the axle, over the 3M Adhesive.

Use a worm clamp to tighten down. Be sure to paint any exposed metal on the axle (I used POR-15).

Mother nature must love you.....

 

A buddy of mine owns a local shop that does all kinds of lighting.

You make them. Mine should be getting here today! Check the link in my sig for the ongoing group buy for them

Damn haha! I kinda have been wanting someone to run under me like that so I can get some money to make a high clearance bumper lol. They'd never make it past my hitch.

As it was mentioned, do the boot slide mod. Wont help the angle but will make the boots last a lot longer.
