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

I plan on adding bumpers and a winch, I also have a shell

 

Oooo, just delivered.




HD, +800lbs, no lift.

 

great. Then should be fine! just rough for now ha

 

My speedometer needle is now way below 0mph reads 20mph low now. Hoping that doesn't mean some catastrophic happened. Had planned on pulling it tomorrow to clean and lubricate it.

 

When I was refurbing the ARB Bumper, I ended up stripping 2 applications of bedliner spray because I just wasn't happy with the results. Using the angle grinder with this

$22 SIGNI 4" x 16mm Poly Strip Discs Stripping Wheel for Angle Grinder -Remove Paint, Rust and Clean Welds Oxidation (5 Pack-Blue)

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B08L242KTQ/ made the removal and prep a lot easier. Not sure how it would do with Por 15 but that strip disc works great.

 

Was the POR15 still wet? Fluid film shouldn't eat through it.

It's fucked. Just keep up with traffic.

 

I think you misread what I was saying. POR 15 was flaking off and rust was forming. I sanded it all down and coated it with tremclad, followed by a coat of Fluid film

 

What traffic?

 

What some cowards did.

 

Completely sucks the big one. Really need someone with fab skills to put something together and start offering them up. I'd pay good cash for a well designed cat shield.

Sorry you got hit Mac.

 

I missed that.. my POR15 has peeled in a couple spots but my assumption is that due to contaminated surfaces when I laid it down. Can't fault the chemicals for that.

Who cares?

 

If yours is totally fubar you can have mine after I convert to the Haltech dash

 

New front and rear suspension, 883's and 5100's, also airbags. Rides smoother with all that weight i've added. Got new rear springs to put on and shackles but it's been colder than a well diggers lunchbox, so I'm waiting for at least less snow and melted water in the garage.

 

That sucks.

 

Wow going all out eh?

Will find out tomorrow

 

It's a good way to get some extra functionality and I/O

 

Ask and you shall receive. I'll draw something up in cad to cut on my plasma table this weekend.

 

Awesome Jon. I'm sure there will be many interested to see what you can come up with.

 

Added a Bakflip g2.

 

Gave it some new shoes.
