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

Did you do a layer of butyl onto the sheet metal below the carpet too

 

I did. Had to scrape some it out to make the fit better in some areas

 

I've also been sitting on this for a while for the firewall & hood. Not convinced it will help much though so I haven't pulled the trigger yet

$100 Second Skin Audio Spectrum Liquid Sound Deadening Spray and Paint - Water Based Viscoelastic Vibration Damper for Automotive Insulation (1 Gallon)

Just ordered the 555 inner + outer both sides. Figures yesterday it was on sale for $35 and today $50 if that doesn't sum up my luck.

 

also curious about that. I've heard that spraying the inner fender wells with that does a lot too

 

Good to hear.. If I got the 5gal I could do the whole undercarriage as well... Decent investment though

 

haha win some lose some. Have fun with the install and praise Tim

Get some MLV and use what you got. I LOVE my vinyl floor.

 

It's nice for keeping clean I guess, but the carpet has more premium feel. Still undecided.

 

It's a 2000 Tacoma, ain't nothin premium about it.

 

lol you're not wrong, but the little things like making it quieter in cab and a bit more comfy make long drives a lot better.

 

Totally agree. I plan on doing the MLV under my vinyl when the crawl box goes in and then go ham on deadening all around.

 

I just finished my DIY bed slide out for my packout tool boxes. The slide out rests on the drawers when fully extended.

 

Dope! What kind of tracks did you use?

 

I used x16 5/8" transfer bearings.

 

What keeps the drawers from falling out?

 

Drawer box is bolted to the bed

 

Well... didn't do anything to my 1st Gen... Haven't even driven it in a couple months now... but I ordered a couple things for it today.



Fuck it... it's only money, right?

She'll be ready to Hammer down to Hammer town. King of the Hammers is less than 45 days away, for those keeping track.

 

Power steering leak today

I’m trying the Lucas Power steering stop stuff, to hopefully stop the leak.

once the leak is stopped, I’m planning on removing the Lucas stuff and replacing it with the correct power steering fluid.

 

The Lucas stuff helped me get through a wheeling season. But it's by no means any permanent solution. If you have a leak, what ever is leaking will need to be addressed.
