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

Not exactly sure. Def on the outside though. Are they the same? Hard to say. The A340 transmission is so diverse but for the most part, the A340F is pretty uniform, with changes depending on the year. If you have a temp sensor (new models), its mounted on the outside. I just finished removing my valve body and no temp sensor in the pan .

 

First I wired up a new DEH-80PRS head unit and cb radio. They fit after doing some test fitting and figuring out what holes to use for mounting.



Then I replaced the shift lever ball seat and lever socket. The original was pretty worn. The new parts help smooth and firm the throw.



Then I cleaned all of my interior.

 

Blinkers work, bad led bulb swapped em out for stock saved me about $40

 

What kind of mount did you use for the CB ?

 

The factory radio brackets.

 

Installed my wheelers front brake lines. Hard to say if there was any improvement in braking. I bleed the system while the front tires were off, basically not level.

 

Damn son don't they call that chopper style?

 

Haha well they will only bolt up in the back right now so 2 is better than none right??

 

Went on an annual dezert trip with TW
Camp: there ended up being around 60 trucks there from 3 states lol






Broke my lower skid


Also picked up my bedcage

 

Received and installed my

$93 aFe POWER Magnum FLOW OE Replacement Air Filter w/Pro DRY S Media for Toyota Tacoma 95-04 V6-3.4L #31-10013

aFe Pro Dry filter.

Also received replacement ballasts from TRS (due to a recall) and swapped those in as well.

 

Replaced the back-up switch on the MT and put in some new screws and backing nuts for the tail-lights.




Time to order parts for the LBJs.

 

Part numbers for the screws ?! Need to do the same

 

Question for you 1st gens with scanguages, do y'all get trans temps?

 

Long ones are 90069-02077
Short ones are 81519-87010

The small backing nuts are 90189-04144.

Couldn't find the large backing nuts that go in the holes towards the tailgate. They were in good enough condition to leave in there.

 

Heck yeah

 

Part number 84210-52050

$28.07 through Camelback Toyota.

http://parts.camelbacktoyota.com/pa...AL&subgroup=SWITCHES&component=BACK-UP SWITCH

It comes with the metal gasket but I ordered an extra just in case.

Part number 90430-A0003

 

I need to see if my reverse lights even work. It seems like I can't see shit when I'm backing up. I'm used to it though since my old truck had 5% tint.

 

I bought and installed the snazzy LED bulbs and they went all intermittent on me. Was spooked it was the bulbs but after some research found others had had similar experience but fixed it by replacing the switch. I didn't want my $10 snazzy LED bulbs to not get used.

 

Mine doesn't. I've tried every X-Code I could find.
