BayAreaTaco's Expo Crawler. Custom 1 ton SAS!

You're too lazy to change it, and I'm too lazy to search for the answers.

Anyways, thanks, I'll order one of those as soon as I figure out which flasher we need.

And BTW, is it just me or are those turn signals so week it doesn't matter much anyways? Doesn't help that I leave my amber LED pods on all the time...

 

they seem to be bright enough for me! I haven't had a problem with their brightness... let me know when you figure out which flasher to use!

 

No problem man. Thanks for the advice about googleing for the mounting plate man. IDK if the bumper came with the winch plate on it cause i bought it off a guy that had it on his truck but never had a winch on it. like u said if u ordered the ARB bumper it should have came with it but might on mine might of not ordered it with the bumper. but thats what im going to do though is make some kind of bracket out of steel to hold the winch on the bumper. i guess u seen i already have the winch and want to put it on soooooo bad but itll get on though. and i'll have to make another plate to cover the front for the roller that the fairlead comes out of to because the holes on the roller i got dont match with the actual bumper holes to mount the roller on front.

 

Got the UG I bought off of Mark (SeattleCoug) with bracket.
Then gauge is really easy to install, plug n' play.
I dropped down the lower panel below the steering wheel to rout the cable, zip tied the slack under there.

I play around with it in a few locations but this was the least obstructive for the driving position, the first pic shows you what I see, it's pretty natural spot I have no problems seeing it.
I tried it right on top of the wheel at first but it blocked to much of the speedo!

I'm super happy with this product

 

Seems to be a good location, and overall it looks badass

 

Thanks man! Still trying to figure out the calibration for the fuel level and mpg and all that. It's confusing as hell.

 

I attached the manual for the UltraGauge and a specifications pdf for the 2004 Tacoma. I believe your tank size is the same (18.5 gallons) even though you have a 2001 Tacoma.

Hope that helps a bit.

 

How/why are you selling all those stock 01-04 parts in the other thread?

....what's happening to the bay area taco?

 

X2 Man. Why u sellin all them parts? im exactly like u though i have kept all my stock parts i had on the truck. u should get some money out of them parts u have espacially that bumper and wheel an tire. thats a lot though.

 

nothings happening, they are just all the stock parts that i replaced with aftermarket stuff on my truck. I'm trying to sell them to help fund the solid axle. 37's aint cheap!!!! hahaha

do you think im asking enough money for those parts?? i just kinda guessed at everything.

 

I think it should be fine, throw em on Craigslist too. They should be sold soon especially since you added OBO so people can make offers. Bumper might be a little high (I see people listing them on TW for 100-125 in the sale section)

 

u should be able to sell them soon. since some people r lookin for stock parts too!! thats what i should do to get a rear bumper from all i have but i think ill keep em just in case. what kind of 37's r u goin to go with man?

 

probably the bfg mud terrain km2. I have them currently and I am very happy with them.

 

What are you re-gearing to?

 

4.88's with arb air lockers is the plan

 

Going to want to go with 5.29's for 37's. Idk what kind of transfer case setup you're planning though

 

inchworm crawlbox 2.28.1

it will still be a daily driver, i could get by with the stock 4.10s but want a compromise of offroad and driving this thing to work everyday. Im on the freeway a lot too, Id still like to go somewhat fast.

 

4.10's with 37's would be terrible, would barely move, and when it did you'd constantly be in overdrive. 5.29's and 37 should be pretty close to stock just like 4.88's and 35's. You would have no power on the streets with 4.88's. Just my two cents..

 

hahaha damn you caught me. I'm a season ticket holder, I guess after a while I take the games for granted, I really wanted to install the light that night! Thanks for the compliments!

 

well you know what they say about opinions and assholes... haha just kidding.

sounds good ill do my research on the gears for sure.
