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

September ish

 

Ahh makes sense.

 

doesn't include the fuses, or relays or the specialized connectors or plugs or wire plugs or tool to attach the connectors.

place i bought mine from you need to buy a minimum of 50 ea other then the relays.

 

Hence why I bought mine haha

 

Common sense is not so common anymore

 

thoughts gents and the occasional lady? When i cut my fenders I have an extra set laying around, so im planning on cutting those and possibly destroying then wheeling in the process. this will let me keep my still nice factory fenders in tact if i ever should need them. The fenders are from a green 02, so not the same color green as my 96. I have decided on 3 options, leave them the factory different green color, paint the fenders black, or paint the fenders black and plasti derp the hood.

im leaning torward just painting the fenders

 

Just do the fenders. Be like mine..won't notice it much.

 

Or you could just spray paint it with Duplicolor that matches it.

 

my thoughts. i will do it a la monte style

i doubt it will never get close enough to match.

 

Yeah I've done 75 in 4hi with no issues as well. I just don't engage/disengage at those speeds. This was mostly because parts of the highway was okay, and then parts would get shitty, of course adjust your speed accordingly when stuff gets shitty.

In 4wd and locked? or two and locked? two locked shouldn't have any issue, don't the prerunner guys do that all the time? Toyota has that warning mostly because you weren't able to activate the damn thing outside of 4lo. Thank god for the grey wire mod.

Is that mounted on top of the existing fuse box? That setup looks really clean.

 

Yes. I did the same thing.

 

When you have to open the main box, is it a pain in the ass? Also how is it mounted? Is it hard now that you can't see the fuse labels? Or is it just like velcro'd on?

 

this is a really noob question but how do you guys know what size fuse to use with each thing? like what size would you use for 2 halogen lights

 

I use this diagram.

Keep in mind all types of wire are not the same. Some handle more current than others.

 

link didnt work, yeah i kind of understand the wire currents, im trying to clean up my wires this weekend so im trying to get a feel for how it all works,

 

Just edited the link. See if that works.

 

awesome chart^^ thanks alot bro

 

I like that but then all of the relays are just floating around for the most part

 

I derped the hood. I actually am starting to really like it. Set crap on it, take the ice scraper to it. I would't hesitate to do the whole truck some day.
