Dylans 02 Impulse Red build

Looks good! Yeah I took mine off too, to much out of the wheel wells and the 35s tuck into the fenders much better with out them.

 

Sweet man. I got 33s

 

I saw, they look good! Some how or another I'm getting close to the same mpg as I was with the 265s... Only thing I can think of is a change in my right foot. I used to drive like i was some race car driver but now I know I'm big and slow. So I just allow plenty of time to get where I'm going and take it easy

 

Haha same here

 

Did a little work on the truck today, oil change, cleaned up my co2 tank, and picked up a red top for a steal

 

Hahahaha you just drive slow jk

Turns out I'm not driving as slow as I thought since my speedo is off by 7 mph
Still slower than I used to though

 

Driving down the road tonight at about 60 when my ujoint gave way, slip yoke ce out and my rear part of my drive shaft punctured my gas tank.

Looks like I'll be getting a new carrier bearing, drive shaft, gas tank, and u joints. This about sent me over the edge with this truck.

 

Damn dude.

 

KaBoom. That sucks.
That carrier bearing housing looks destroyed. (Along with everything else).

 

Yupp! And so the push to get it going by big dogs begins! Going to a junk yard to hunt down a drive shaft today, may have a guy willing to sell me his gas tank off a truck he totaled, carrier bearing I'll have to get new. Then to figure out what kind of u-joints will hold up to 35s and a rear locker

 

And she lives!!!

After a full day of wrenching and figuring out how to bypass my charcoal canister I have finally got her back on the road. Now to see how long oem joints hold...

 

I'll be taking the locker out tomorrow. It keeps going into like a free spool where my drive shaft is spinning but the truck won't move. Calling ECGs tomorrow to try and get a refund. Imma about sick of all this.

 

Just get an elocker
Or ARB/TJM and run it off that new co2 tank. I need to get mine filled now since I finally got a regulator and 30' hose

 

Well may or may not keep the truck it's in the air right now. But after removal of the locker we found that 2 of 4 pins and springs were sheared and sitting at the bottom of the diff. Spyder gears are back in and will only be replaced with a elocker or a arb. If replaced by me at all.

Also new gas tank came from a 01, turns out it won't run to the charcoal canister correctly so bypassed it now cel is on and having feeding issues. After completely detaching all hoses to canister it allows me to pump gas at 1/3 of a pumps feed.
Any faster and it back feeds out of fuel spout. Any ideas to get it to breath correctly I'm open to!

 

trade her in ;(

 

Very tempted.... I just don't know how much I could get for a tacoma on 35s with all these problems plus I still owe a lot on it.

 

Not much. Take the wheels lol

 

Yeah probably not gonna be worth it. I'll probably keep it and try to fix everything.
