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

Fixed

Right above my license plate for now

 

nice! whens it going in?

 

When lotsoftoys gets back from Moab and has the time to do so.

 

I kinda wish I would have spent the extra coin and got everything put together before they sent it but to late now haha

 

Dang, trying to make me spend money... Does it have night vision built in at all?

 

ooohh shiny

 

Kinda. The reverse lights

 

That rear view camera is pretty fucking awesome.

 

Kurt was awesome working with me.

I didn't need a few components from the kit but wanted some others (the AAL) and in the end he worked out a good deal on the assembling of the coil/shock and all brand new hardware to go with it.

I'm also trying to make lotsoftoy's life easier on the install as well.

 

My reverse bulbs lol, could always just order the IR version though

 

Yeah, I may have to do this soon... I need a little project to hold me over.

 

Get to it

 

I have a lot if other things I should do though.

Painting, light wiring, and maintenance....

 

Speaking of maintenance, when that bad bearing in your fan support locks up, the fan will shear off and migrate "at will" around the front of the engine bay as it self destructs and take out the radiator, hoses, fan shroud, upper timing cover, dipstick tube, crank sensor wiring and maybe even dent your hood, or worse. Just because it quieted down in the warmer weather does not mean the problem has gone away.

 

Honestly forgot about that haha we'll see if it's that. Need to try the stethoscope method to find out where it's really coming from.

 

Is it still making the noise with the warmer weather?

 

Yup, but a slightly different noise. Sounds like one of my pulleys is gunked up.

 

oh boy.... someone just got excited lol
