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

I feel your pain. Exact same thing happened on mine...weird.

 

Vernal, northeast corner

 

I took everything apart with 2 cups a coffe and about 25 minutes after watching you tube.....lol

Also the light bulbs on the ac panel are the stock ones I want to order the new ones but can't seam to find them on eBay

Any suggestions?

 

check plugs on back of cluster. one may not be all the way pushed in.

 

regular bulbs or leds? The little colored cover will come off old bulb to be put on new one

 

The new ones on the cluster are leds from eBay I think 10 for $6.00 free shipping

The ac panel I can't find in led I want to change them so it can match

 

Switching from P rated tires to E rated tires decreased my MPG but adding a tube bumper did not.

 

I went from Cooper St Pros to Cooper Maxx's recently, same size. I never really paid attention to the weight of either tire. My mileage doesn't really bother me unless there's something stupid taking it down.

 

My mileage doesn't bother me now that I have a 1st gen 2.7L that can go a week on a 1/4 tank of gas.

Thanks man!

 

Where you able to try them out at some store before you purchased? Want to upgrade but worried I won't like the seats!

 

Got it Dirty!

 

I was not, my friend had the moab ones for his jeep and they were comfy, but i like mine way better...was super scared about it too, but they are awesome...you can call them and see if they have a place nearby that has their seats to test out at a lical dealer, closest one to me was about 4 hrs away. I rolled the dice and scored

 

I'm still new to this forum. So I'm constantly lurking and searching to make some check/to-do lists.
Did the grey wire mod today. Finished up breather mods too (rear diff, front diff, ADD). Flipped the spare while I was under there. Also able to lock down both front door scuff plates with some nylon nuts shoved in the floor pan holes.

I love this site. Big thanks to all DIY posts.

 

Looks like an extra long bed.

 

Must be the angle

 

Can you explain more? Is there a certain size nylon nut to use, or would just anything that the screw will bite into work? I think I need to do this. I just noticed that my door scuff plate screws were loose and didn't want to snug up.

 

Im assuming he stripped the threaded plastic clips and replaced with a real nut.
