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

check out my build for front bumper options. if you dont have a front bumper you have ordered or waiting to weld on, you should take a look, it would get you by for now.

 

You should just put some clearbra on them after buffing and then they are good to go without hazing back up.

 

$15K for this dcab on 35s, locked front and rear etc etc. See end of thread for sale info.

I had the same issue. Used the sylvania kit I believe. Looked gorgeous after I did it and it came with a UV clear coat/preventer to slow the haze. It's not so much that it's hazy but it's damn near yellow and looks disgusting. I can't wait to retrofit just so I can have new housings.

 

X2. After hearing all of this stuff I may as well just leave it.

 

Man that guy doesn't keep his vehicles very long such a good deal tho!

 

Went and flexed with my bud last night

Sadly couldnt go any farther up the ramp since the bar on the side was too tall

 

Best place to buy a 60" hi lift?

 

Amazon if you have prime.

 

The more I look the more options I find. I guess I'm figuring out I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for. 3rd Gen 4Runners keep popping up in my mind as well. Even looking at 80 Series Cruisers and a slight possibility of a DiscoII.

 

Fleet Farm?

 

Lol most people don't know what fleet farm is. But fleet farm FTW!

 

Such a sad, sad world.

Fleet Farm is a magical place where you can go to get a vehicle alignment and while waiting:
-Get quality pants, shorts, shirts, jackets, rain gear, etc
-Get all of your fishing gear to include a boat
-Get everything you need to build a trailer for your new boat
-Get a welder, generator, plasma cutter and any other tool to build a trailer for your new boat
-Get your license, rifle/shotgun/pistol and ammo for your hunting trip
-Get all of your camping gear, trapping gear, hunting gear for your hunting trip
-Get a food processor, dehydrator, grinder, jerky maker for the game you bring home from that hunting trip
-Get a lawn tractor and any other piece of equipment for your yard
-Get everything you need to build another trailer...this time for your new lawn tractor
-Get your dog food, cat food, horse food, cattle feed
-Get tires, tool boxes, vehicle ramps, bed mats, winches, jacks, jack stands, fluids and that gay looking air freshener that actually smells good
-Get candy, snacks, nuts, trail mix and that oddly named soda

And, once everything is bought and your truck is done:
-Get your pavers, potting soil, mulch and those weird flower-looking things that your wife keeps nagging you about in the hopes that she doesn't see everything else you bought while you were getting your truck aligned.

 

looks Pretty good. Im gonna make a front tube bumper I just need to order the rest of the materials this week.

 

Neat toy.

 

Perks of working at a napa haha

 

Heaven?

I just took some sandpaper to mine till I saw all the oxidation gone, then hit it with some clear coat. Look brand new and havent hazed up. Been a year

While doing an oil change this weekend I found out i have the same issue but with the outer boot (if i remember correctly)....I thought there was no clamp so i went and bought some clamps...well, after cleaning up all the grease, i realized the clamp is there.........So I guess I need a new axle???? Or can this be an easy fix? new boot? I'll try to get a pic this weekend

 

i believe you can buy a new boot and repack the grease and stuff, but ive heard its a really messy tedious job and its easier to just buy a new cv

 

does sounds easier...plus alot of places offer lifetime warranty to IIRC
