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

Finally got the steering-wheel-slop mod done today .... couple tacks and hopefully I don't get punched in the chest by the steering column in an accident

Feels friggen amazing though, much more solid response and the coin-jar rattle off road is gone

 

Eh in my tacoma got in a front end collision. Probably get totaled out anyways and Id rather bet dead then anyways

 

my feeling exactly plus I think the death wobble above 65 mph was getting me closer to an accident anyway

 

Refreshed my headlights this morning. Not much of a mod, more of a maintenance task. 1st pic is before/2nd is after.

 

Finally mounted my highlift

 

Looks good. What kind of mount is that?

 

Attempted adjusting my kings to compensate for the taco lean. All I accomplished was this. Fug. These are way harder to adjust than I thought. What the hell do I use? The uca is right in the way of the holes when the front end is lifted in the air.

 

Time to do some frame work...

 

Did you loosen this first?

 

Yup.

 

Custom made by a member on here....i deleted my conversation with him so i forgot his user name...im sure he'll chime in......great product. I stuck them up high so i can have more space for my camping gear

I put the jack under my lca and dont let it droop. But i also dont have aftermarket uca's

 

You use a spanner or a punch?

 

I had to take mine out/off. And it was still a pain.

 

Jack the truck up so the front is fully drooped. Then use a long punch. Takes some muscle. I usually bend the punch a bit each time.

 

So far I've gone from to All with only a few cans of plasti dip and headlights. Today installed a new a/c compressor and reciever!! 6 months without ac is about to end

 

We are opposites on bumpers, I've plastidipped my rear bumper but not the front yet. Looking good man, those headlights make a world of difference!

 

I used a punch....and alot of wd40

 

Dropped it off just now at the weld shop. Sway bar will not be going back on, nor will the brackets. It sways more with fast turns (imitate swerving for a deer) but in every other situation it rides so much smoother, off road is night and day different (for the better)

 

Why do people tint their tail lights? Looks dumb and increases the chance of a rear ending..

 

Too each their own
