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

I think most people here on the site are gonna say get a relay and just go from battery

 

Hmmmm.... tough choice.

Half way done with my rear wall.

Got the BXT II down, just need to cover it with Ensolite now. Quick question to anyone that's used Raamaudio products. On the "how to" section of Rick's website it says to cover the rear wall 60-80% with BXT II. Before applying the Ensolite he says, "test the rear wall by tapping on it with your fist... if it still resonates then double it up across the middle section (below the holes for the clips and above the brackets for the rear seat bolts)."

I have doubled it up and quite honestly there's very little difference in resonance from when I tapped on it with my fist when it was bare metal and now, almost fully covered and doubled up in said trouble area.

Any insight?

 

Washed it.



Then went to take the dash apart to replace the gauge cluster bulbs (since this is the first below 90 degree day since last winter)...and realized that I couldn't get the three switches on the left side of the steering column out of the dash panel Good news is that I got the dash put back together with no screws left over

 

Just got this in today.



This will be the third PS pump in 1.5 yrs & hopefully it will last...

 

Where did you get your p/s pumps?

 

The previous was a Autozone Fenco, when it failed I did a rebuilt kit that also failed. The one pictured is a ACDelco with the cooler I plan on using.

 

I put similar shit in mine..didn't make a difference at all I think..

 

Installed a set of Duallys on front bumper, picked up the amber lens covers as well. Gutted one of the 12v sockets and ran the included switch through it.

5100's + aal ordered from wheelers last night.

 

I like those ^ I need to figure out some sort of fog lights for winter.

Spent most of Saturday washing, clay barring, and waxing my new truck just to drive it around today in Sandy. Fixing to drive it around in the snow tomorrow that we're suppose to get. I need to move south.

 

Not at all what I wanted to hear.

Rick, from Raamaudio, has a 96 Tacoma that has won major championships. Granted I'm not going to the extremes he is but in speaking with him I gathered I would gain moderate to pretty good results.

I hate you, Monte

 

Haha well grant my truck is just kinda noisey all together...

 

True haha

 

anyone else's ball joints like to click their approval of speed bumps?

 

All my ball joints are shot haha

 

finished building BoxRocketFab bedrack #001 to go off for powder coating tomorrow.

 

^^ looks good man.

 

No need to apologize bro', I did my bar in like 15 or 20 mins... then added even junkier WalMart lights from their middle-of-the-isle bargain basket
