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

I figure most likely it won't walk off but I don't really want to take the chance. It will be nice being able to disconnect it and throw it in the back seat. Seems like the external lock version is better and has less problems. Thanks again for that link.

 

Almost anything of value just walks off in San Francisco and Oakland. I don't leave a god damn thing in sight in my truck, parked in my driveway in Oakland. The only thing besides the regular interior are floormats. NOTHING else is in sight. Almost every day on my walk or cycling commute to work I see at least one broken window - smash and grab.

 

I'm new to this and to the tacoma... Is my first Tacoma ever and got it a week ago... I don't really know about generations on this truck.. It's a 2015 trd sport v6

 

This is the link to my pictures and info..

We are not the ones to ask, we only know things about first gens, nothing else exists in my mind. Ask your question here. http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2nd-gen-tacomas/6499-what-have-you-done-your-tacoma-today-3038.html

Good luck!

 

Fixed that

 

Slapped on the rear Spidertrax 1.25" spacers. I am happy with the stance. Lift will be coming soon....stay thirsty my friends.

 

I didn't even know there were 2nd or 3rd gen Tacomas, thought it was 2nd and 3rd gen t100s

 

....t200/t300

 

Has anyone used Kenda Klever tires? A tire shop near me has started a special sale, and this are the featured tire. I have read a lot about them, and have found very few bad reviews. I know Kenda is a bike/ATV tire brand, and is breaking into the auto market,but at less than $700 for a set of 285s, it's hard not to throw my money at them. What do you guys think? It would be nice to get honest, "live" opinions.

 

I think I need to do this to my LED bar

 

good idea ill be doing this as well to my bumper LEDs.

 

After getting my spring stolen I added security hardware to all my lights. Didn't have locktite with me at the time, but that'll be next too.

 

security hardware? whats that?! how do i get some? lol..

 

It's the Mass Airflow Sensor, depending on the year of your truck, it could be dirty or may need to be replaced entirely. I had the same problem a few months back and i got a new one from Toyota (some people do restorations for those sensors, but I think it's worth it to get a new one altogether)

 

Don't forget to put a lighter or torch in the toolbox to be able to work on it later on the trail... "removable once cured by heating up parts to 500°F (260°C)"

 

I dont know why everyone is so afraid of loctite. I use red on ALL suspension bolts (and a lot of other places) and it takes a little more effort to remove but nothing that has ever required heat or special tools.

I am not sure how loctite would deter any thief unless for some reason its a thief that is going around looking for loose nuts that can be removed by hand

 

Anyone have a part number for the clip/plugs that hold on lower part of the dash with the cigarette lighters
Thanks in adavance

 

true..if they want it, they will get it

 

You talking the push pins or the metal clips?

I have them but won't be able to post until later tonight.
