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

Same. I love going back through my own thread sometimes. Quite funny and amazing what has all happened. Its fun to have it documented. And I like helping people.

 

x3! I was looking over my build and I've come a long way from a revtek spacer lift to what I have now...Love to see the transformation.

 

No support for those side tubes? Be careful what you rub those things against. Much more than a shopping cart will push those things into your bedsides.

Otherwise looks sweet.

 

I have changed tires and wheels 3 times in 1 year. I finally got it where I want it.. Well almost...

 

Or hook and pull out. I would support to the frame for sure...

 

Did some wheeling last weekend, have a few pics up.

 

ok I clean my throttle body over the weekend and now after starting truck up and letting it come operatring temp.my idle wont drop below 1500rpms in park and hangs at 1000 in drive any clue .temp here is almost 70

 

Did you miss a hose somewhere? Maybe the intake tube is not properly seated, check both ends.

 

that was my guess but all are on and appear to be seated properly,I dont drive it every day but Idid let it run after cleaning throttle body

 

found a old thread on here most info said disconnect battery because ecu was compensating for dirty intake and should reset after a few days to a normal idle gonna try it .thanks

 

My build started because I restored my headlights

It's mostly a venue to give people a chance to laugh at, and mock, me.

But I agree, it's also a photodocumentary of Ol' Red

 

And them headlights look good! !

 

This is my rear bumper adam made. Shows the side tube support

 

I almost had supports on the tubes, until I tried cutting and texting at the same time. Then I scrapped it. I can full on mule kick the tube and it doesn't flex hardly at all. It will be fine until I get ambitious and add supports.

 

Your bumper looks great!

I'm just thinking StAndrew with the turbo build just spun out and hit the barrier with his trail gear bumper. Frame is bent and trail gear bent a little.

Wonder if yours could take that damage not being supported?

 

Thanks! I'm sure it probably can't. It's DOM tube, but I realize it doesn't have the strength I was aiming for. If I cut the support tube 1/2" longer, it would have them. I left it off rather than waiting a week for a new tube. I don't have a tube bender right now so I couldn't bend another quick, and didn't want to cobble crap together. If it bends and punches my bed, it gives me a reason to high clearance.

 

I want one damn it!!

 

Mine is? No, I just put new gears in the rear and some oil dripped when I pulled the shafts out.

 

Yours looks like high clearance already!

 

Sell you mine


Can't even let that go on too far..j/k
