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

I understand some of those words.

 

Well, email Zuk. He is a great guy and will respond within a day or two every time. I used solid collars though in both diffs.

 

That sounds like its taken out of context.

All the Zuk write-ups I have ever read indicate in them to use a solid spacer instead of a crush sleeve for the reasons Monte mentioned.

 

Got my cb installed and wired. Anyone know how much farther back the 90 degree connector for the antenna wire will move it back?

Added red bulbs into the turn signals - no more white leaking out of the side of these housings when my blinkers are on.
Before:


After:



White bulb (left) vs. red bulb (right):


Also put these LED reverse lamps in:


Added a little extra light to the sides too

 

Almost to where the front edge is flush I'll show you I'll post up a pic soon and show you! Have the same exact cb too!

 

I had to use a 90* and when you push it in you gotta maneuver shit around behind to make it work. But with work you can get hella flush.

 

Are we allowed to say "hella flush" on this forum? I thought that was reserved for xrunners only?

Maybe with with the context like "I mounted the hella (light) flush with the front of the bumper"? Still feels dirty.

 

It will move it up to that line that you can see above the radio, behind the faceplate. I did it on mine. If you want it flush you'll have to heat up the vent tube that is back that massage it back some with the butt of a screwdriver or something round.

 

Here you go man! Just with the 90*.

 

Got the cobra for Christmas lol

 

Damn! I'm gonna have to mess with mine to get it that flush. What'd you use to secure it @TacoVio

 

Securing itself lol but it slides out a little and i just push it back in but I think I'm just gonna use velcro! Gotta do that soon before I go trailbreakin lol!

 

My thinking too. If it were my choice...

 

That's what I used and it kinda sucks, I have to shove it back up every now and then. I'll fiddle with it sometime in the summer when I'm redoing my electrical wiring

 

All ready for the return of The Walking Dead...

 

Well thanks to @m3bassman I got the deal of the century, so I present to you a rare Craigslist find...


I'm fuckin' stoked!

 

Painted my skid plate blue! Everything was black and red and I wanted it to look a little different. What are your thoughts?

 

Holy F****** Shit! Awesome!

 

I know right! You never see these things for sale!
