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

I can only think of six on the top of my head.

One for the front U-Joint
One for the rear U-Joint
One for the Slip Joint
Three for the Double Carden

Don't miss the third in the double carden, it's pretty well hidden down in the center.

 

Thanks! This thread says 8 but I'll go take a peek

That appears to be counting the front drive shaft too, which has 3 more.

 

Gotcha, yeah I meant front and rear

 

Mine has 9 total for front and rear driveshafts
Rear shaft:
2 for ujoint and slip yoke
3 for double carden
1 u joint
Front shaft:
2 for u joint and slip yoke
1 more ujoint

 

Let's just rattle can them from the factory then, alot cheaper.

 

Anyone know anything about some tint that will not get me pulled over but also looks dark?

 

You would have to look up the legal limit in your state. And that's as dark as you can go legally

 

Replaced a few of my ebay ballasts with better quality ones.

 

Why do you care so much? It ain't your truck, it's not dangerous or going to ruin the truck. Sure it isn't as good as a good professional paint job but if it works for him that's all that matters.

 

Finished the Viper 5706v install w/ remote start. Shitting bricks when I hit that startup button

Cause its not done right. But whatever.

 

Says the guy with mosterliner.

 

Looks like you did a really nice job! I have played around with getting one for the cold weather but my truck doesn't have any other power features for it to control so it'd be a bit of a waste for me. I like that you loomed everything and made sure the fuses can be accessed easily.

 

Noticed I got a little chirp under the hood at idle that seems to go away after driving for a while. Belt or pulley? The belts have about 20k on them. I was planning on changing them around 30k.

 

I did this today. Time to make new ones.

 

Can you re-use those at all? Weld a new base on them maybe?

 

It's a rattle can quick, cheap and easy solution. What are you expecting?

 

Nope. I boxed them in with 1/4 steel. So they took a beating when I was taking them out. I have scrap here and I'm going to keep it simple.
