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

What do your cv angles look like?

 

I mean it looks like you're at full droop at ride height.

 

Nope.

Example, if I lift the truck from the frame, The wheel drops a good 3-4 inches (or more) before the wheel starts coming off the ground.

 

I'm not complaining

 

Your truck just looks 10ft in the air I guess.

 

Part of that is the fact that I cut the lower 8 inches of my rear fenders off.

 

Nice, how much did that set you back?

 

Installed Honda Squinters and the Crawlarado big ass sticker on the hood as I was getting blinded with the sun's reflection off the Super White hood.... Ready for Death tomorrow.... er, Death Valley that is... 100 fookin' degrees...

 

That's awesome, I'm going to miss that silver color. Are you going to swap the elocker over to the 4x4?

Not even half as much as it should have. About 150,000 miles, it's looks like it's never been truly wheeled, not a spot of surface rust on the frame, and decently maintained. Although it needs a timing belt, sticker says replaced at 68 if i remember right, and new rotors. I literally stole it
Oh and the clear coat on the roof and hood is gone but could always rattle can, wrap.... or mud haha

 

I'm craving a second one. But can't find one for a good deal. Amazing how much they still go for

 

Did you forget the other two already. Fix those first

 

A 4th? damn. I'd love a regular cab 5 speed v6 though, that'd be a badass machine. Got any pics of yours?

 

Today I installed a Redarc Tow Pro Elite. Haven't had a chance to test it yet, I'm still waiting for the brakes to show up for the teardrop trailer.


Yesterday, I cut my ARB bumper to hold the LED style lights I think they should have come with. the brightness of these LED's is a bit disappointing, but have brighter replacements on the way.

 

I want one to fix one..aka make Frank a double cab.

I love my single cab. Ultra fun.

Only a few



It's a great truck. High miles though. But funnest Tacoma I've ever driven

 

That's pretty nice, one of those popped up recently about 5 hours north for a good price. I kicked myself for a good week for not flying up haha

 

Yeah I over paid for it. But I love it. Haha no regrets.

 

I looked at some pics of it 4+ year build and not due to my side of it

 

yeah wtf happened to that thing? Is it still going to happen?

 

Yeah I harass him about once or twice a month. It is close but still a lot plotter things to button up. Crazy how much changes in a life in 4 years lol. I changed jobs, had another kid that is now 2.5 yrs old. The one thing that hasn’t changed is I WANT MY TACOMA FINISHED!!! One day I’ll be back in da dirt and all over these threads. It’s hard to come on here and not have the truck.

 

well hope its done soon.
