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

You can use the stock sockets I believe, I just went with these because I bought them for another project and never used them. And they had 3 wires already in them so that made life easy. I dremeled just enough to fit the socket without needing to silicone it in. It's a tight fit.

The bulbs are 7443 silverstar dual filaments from walmart.

 

It is a clean install. Most likely going to copy it. Way cleaner than what I was going to do. Thanks!

 

Installed some new CV axles, brakes, lower ball joints and the 4:88 front diff with ARB locker...

 

Did some work on my half doors today.

 

New plugs, air filter, and cleaned the MAF sensor.

I think the MAF sensor was real dirty.. the Ultraguage is now WAY off and needs to be re-calibrated.

Hopefully this gets my gas mileage back

 

Hit the dunes with our local club.

 

Love the gopro pic

 

love your truck man!!

 

Every time I see BoxRocket's truck it makes me want wheel spacers! Haha

 

You have to trim more with spacers? correct?

Another question, for anyone. Looking at getting my lift in a few week. Probably OME 883s with Dakars. I know the 883s will be higher so it can settle with a bumper but will I need an AAL until then?

 

Probably so. It would rub my fenders more and the firewall more when turning. But it looks so much better....

 

Nice. Is that just a regular camera tripod?

 

No, it's way more ghetto than that. It's a telescoping handle for a paint roller. I stuck one of the GoPro adhesive clips on it. Today was the first time I've tried it. The position was good but I need to figure out how to make it a bit more stable. The videos are super shaky.

 

fab'd this antenna mount

 

Painted and installed my new rear tube bumper. I finally have full all around tube bumpers and sliders .

Love the new little LED plate lights

And got my new reinforced spindles on and ready to go

 

yes

i have 1.5'' spacers with my 3.75'' BS wheels and they stick out much further, and you have to trim more or the lower fender area.

 

So, what's the benefit of the spacers if you an clear your UCAs without them?

 

Other than a slightly wider stance and if you're happy with your spacing in regards to your fender, nothing in my opinion. I have no actual need for them, and probably won't get any unless I get the chance to mount some and see if I like it before I spend $200 on some spacers haha
