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

Man you really need LT ^

 

Time to order new rear shocks I think

 

Think the turn down before the axle make the shock too hot?

 

Sadly, no

That is my current project in fact. Going to replace the whole exhaust because it's rusted through in some spots causing it to occassionally throw a CEL. Waiting to hear back from a glass guy to replace my windscreen then it's all exhaust and header install!

Don't worry I didn't forget to keep you up to date, just been busy since we talked with the Moab trip, time spent out West travellin, and then some fam came into the country to visit. But the truck is back to being my #1 priority as it should be.

How has your O2 sensor fix been holding up and what are your Iphone app numbers like with the header?

 

Me too!

 

Wowzers!!!

 

Your profile pic was made for that comment

 

I added a new muffler and the sim for the 2nd sensor isn't holding up. I'm throwing a different code now. I don't know off the top of my head. So I just ignore it for now. I don't have to smog until January so when it gets closer I'm going to take it to some exhaust guys and work something out. Right know my focus is on my long travel set up. But I'll also keep you informed in how it turns out when I do.

 

If the rear sensor is shot the urd sim isn't going to work. Found that out chasing down a code...

 

I'm not using the URD one. I made one myself off of a thread here. It worked in the beginning. I also replaced the 1st sensor but not the 2nd one. I will when I start on the exhaust. I had another member here check my air fuel ratio and I'm running at 14.7 around there so I'm not to worried about it now. When the time is right I'll go through it all and double check everything. Just focused on suspension right now. Thanks for the heads up tho.

 

I thought it would work since it is essentially sending its own signal and it worked for me before.

I was chasing down a code and the options were exhaust leak, bad cat, or bad sensor. I got an aftermaket cat because the pipe had rusted through so there were holes in it. With new seals it didn't clear the code. When I put in a new sensor the light turned off and now the urd sensor is just sitting in my truck waiting to be put back on haha.

 

CAT CLAMP INSTALLED

 

Nah I don't think so. there's a big dent in the shock body right at the bottom, these also have lots of miles on them and they got Worked pretty hard yesterday

Haha that's even better than mine!!

 

Good to know. Which muffler is it out of curiosity? Ooh you probably have a build page I could check out nevermind! Interested to hear about your suspension project, I currently have a broken rear shock so I'm taking a leap and buying nice rear shocks so that when I have enough money I can also upgrade the front IFS as well as the leaf packs. Excited for a better ride!

 

Yes the muffler is in my build thread and I also have a sound clip too. Just click SilverGhost Rises

 

My $0.05 Hi Lift mount.

Two pieces of scrap wood and two bungie cords

 

Spare no expense!

 

Yeah i know, you need to try harder brother.. shit don't break itself ya kno

 

That's one way to do some regular maintenance under the truck
