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

Man your truck is definitely a looker!!
Did you make the hood or buy it? If you bought it could you share the website?

 

Those gages on the post look interesting.

 

Boost and AFR gauges for his supercharger

 

correct, supercharged

 

Also have an ultra gauge to monitor temps and other odds and ends

 

Been slowly making progress on my new bumper. Hope to finally wrap it up this weekend.

 

Yeah sure… I’ll grab the links in a day or 2 when I’m back home. Cb was from Amazon and radio from crutchfield. I did have to dremel the radio bezel trim piece a bit for the cb but only in the way back

 

Just received new parts today from Rock Auto. Regular maintenance upgrades. New Rack & Pinion with inner tie rods, Drilled Rotors with calipers,pads, Rear Drums with shoes, & adjusters,outer tie rods,lower ball joints,power steering pressure hose & return hose with filter, upper & lower Rad Hoses, Timing Belt & water Pump Kit, New left & right Valve Covers & Gaskets Radiator Cap & Thermostat ,2 New Front Door Lock Cylinders with keys, 2 front parking/turn signal lamps, Also received my 2 wheel cylinders ., 2 axle seals, 6 spark plugs with new wires from Toyota. 2 New transmission lines from Lines to Go . Going today to get my 3" Front & 2' Rear Lift Kit. Can"t wait to get everything installed next week. Love my 02 Tacoma

 

I installed some of those license plate bolt/light combos on my tailgate mounted plate to give the cops one less reason to pull me over. Would not do again, I would basically have the cut the wires off and rewire them if I ever wanted to change plates or if the lights fail.

Yeah those things suck, and if you got the same chinese ones I got off ebay/Amazon then they will fail in short order.
I got them just to get my trailer through license inspection, once they stop working they will not be replaced.

 

Yea they are there to get me through the annual state "safety" inspection (joke).

 

Washington never had a full inspection, but they did have bi-annual emissions test. Thankfully they did away with that a couple years ago, and they just passed a law to de-prioritize getting pulled over for any non-moving violations, so you can pretty much do whatever you want now here.

 

IL where I used to live had emissions only. Now where I'm at in NC they have this bs annual safety inspection. Waste of time and $$$.

 

I remember that from when I was at Ft Bragg. Gotta get that revenue from poor people somehow right?

 

Finally replaced my front seats. Corbeau Moab in tan.

 

Is it the Fairchild KT2020; window scraper seal?

 

@cbechtold @Robmonster117

Did you get you Total Chaos LBJs from Total Chaos, or elsewhere? I see them on the TC page, just wanting to make sure there isn't somewhere else with a better price.

Really wanted to do the Solo LBJs but I just think Bobby is making a real error making his LBJs only work with his spindles, and his spindles only work with his CV shafts. That makes it over 6K all at once (with steering upgrade) to make the shit work.

 

Correct, dont think anyone will be able to sell them cheaper. Maybe if TC has a holiday sale sometime toon

 

It's all good. I'll buy them from TC. Just didn't want to find out in a week someone else has them cheaper.

I know Trail Gear, and All Pro a lot of times is cheaper if you don't buy direct from them.
