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

I couldn’t find one either so this is a rack off a second gen. I made a little slit under the door weather striping and hooked it in there.

 

Can you take a photo of that when you get a chance?
It seems like Yakima had a similar mounting bracket in the past, but I haven't had any luck finding it. Think I'll make one too

 

what is the old vs new ration numbers ?

 

From 4.10 to 5.29

 

Look up lube locker. No more clean up and reusable

 

Permatex Grey is already on there lol. I will look it up though.

 

Looked up the torque spec on the elocker 3rd to housing nuts. Says 18 ft pounds. That seems REALLY light to me.

 

I just finalized a whole bunch of projects…


I finished fabbing my off road bumper and installing the badlands 12000 lb winch, also wiring in some off road lighting. I wired it all into a rocker switch panel that fit perfectly in front of my cup holders. I also put in some footwell lights that I wired into my ignition fuse but am now thinking I want to wire that into one of my rocker switches.

 

The 3rd member is done

Just need to fill the diff, bleed the brakes, and mount the rear wheels.

 

had my cutback replaced. Not cheap in Los Angeles but its done. The rusty one in the middle is my original

 

Here it is, just right under the weather striping on the door

 

Rear 3rd is done. Torqued. Breaks bled, Wheels mounted, test driven... good to go









Now I guess I need 35s to fix the speedo

 

Seeing you tommorow?

 

You gunna be there?

 

Double post

 

Replaced brake master cylinder on 99 Pre Runner after only 227,000 miles.

 

Added a Plano 68qt box to the back bench for storage. Secured it by making 2 slits on the bottom of the box running a strap underneath the bench between the two storage compartments. Also attached some non-slip pads to the bottom to help keep from sliding on the carpet. Still need to road test with tight turns and sudden breaking.

 

yes sir

 

Looks good! Very clever with the strap.
Hey, I’ll pay ya if you sent me some of your patches..

 

I approve this message.


(however it still won't be right, but don't tell the wife that lol)
