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

Just got a new grill from taco vinyl 2016-19 TRD Pro style, updates the look of this old truck a little. Love the new look

 

I polished mine four times.
They looked great every time, before they started fracture cracking.
I finally bought new.

 

Those look good, man. I had a set of spray painted wheels in high school and swore I would never do it again. So much aircraft remover lol. I'm just going to hit them with some wheel cleaner and call it good.

Actually, I'll probably spray the center caps silver since they're all chipped but stopping there!

 

That's exactly what I'm saying though, seems like people using the same bearings have to change them out more with one manufacture. But like I said, could just be ADS folks mention it more.

I don't do a ton of off roading anymore, but get out fairly often, not really much other than graded forest roads and off road parks near hear. But last rebuild they were still in decent shape, could've gone a few thousand more. Had maybe 20ish.

 

I'm Not taking a dig at anyone, just an observation.

 

Which mis alignment should I select? King? I have ads shocks. Or does it even matter. I just need new spacers.

 

I mean...

That's what I did when I had kings

 

Any work, are yours centered now? If centered or you want them to be choose king, if offset pick icons.

 

What does that say about people who have Bilstein’s?

 

Perfect thanks. Offset is what I need.

0 fucks about anything haha

 

I better order through rock auto then. This just kinda just popped up, I was going to get the cs144 but this seems like a better option.

 

It is so hard to cut that stuff conservatively, it’s not very flexible, I had issues with it in the driver side footwell. Still beats the hell out of carpet

 

what signals are those?

 

Repainted the rear flares the other day to match the glass up front, kinda

 

So I’m gearing up to do the Big 3 upgrade and here’s my plan and materials:

I thought I would try something different this time around they are ok bigger than I was was wanting but what ever they work .

 

New front bumper, skid plate and a winch.

 

Nice, proportionate size.
Fits it well. ?
On my list as well.

 

That's the All Pro Apex bumper

 

All pro apex. I have wanted it for several years but i already had a bumper. Adding the winch is what finally caused me to pull the trigger.
