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

I'm just finishing the wiring. Ad ill show you

 

Camp light/rear side fills done

 

Ebay sellers like to play games with their shipping and item list prices. For example I just bought my headlights and corners for $112 free shipping. There were lots of other options that were only ~$72 for the item but then another $40 to ship which is still $112. It would vary by a few dollars but that's it. I guess they lower the item price to get you interested in that specific link and jack up the shipping to still make their money.

 

NICE!

WHAT BULBS ARE THOSE?

 

yeah exactly, so those were like $90 for shipping and price and most are around there and like you said vary by a few dollars

 

If you want to do headlights I'd get the matching corners as well. Will look a lot cleaner. I saw you had chrome ones picked out so you could do the clear corners but I went with the black set and they turned out great on my lunar mist! Check my sig

 

Holy fuck! Everyone is getting MTR's!! Well... i guess thats my next tire

 

My '98 came with 31x10.5r15s from the factory and it was white.

Didn't you just have the timing belt/waterpump changed? They had to loosen the power steering pump and remove that belt when that was done. I'll be the adjuster is just not tight enough or the hinge mount has allowed the pump to move just a little. Enough for the belt to start making noise.

 

31x10.5r15 stock for me too

 

I like them so far. Seems their grip on the rocks are on par with the km2's

just took a fuckton of weights to balance them

 

97 dlx and mine was 31x10.5x15 too, alot easier to understand then metric IMO

 

ordered dual battery stuff.

 

Well, I didn't do it and it was yesterday and not today, but here it is!

 

Not true. They've changed the molds so that they aren't backwards on one side. And they don't do white letters at all unless you get the white letter versions. I guess the majority of people did not want white letters so Goodyear is making them either all white letters or all black, not one on each side.

....good thing because I'm anal retentive that way too. As for balancing...mine took less weight to balance than my KM2s did. Most weight needed on the MTR was 5oz on one wheel. My KM2s were between 7-9 oz on all of them to get them balanced.

:edit: Nevermind, I just looked at my pics again and you're right the tread is still "backwards" from one side to the other. Boo. At least I don't have to deal with white letters.

 

They aren't on backwards. The tighter tread always goes towards the inside. They are asymmetrical, not directional.

 

If they are directional then why can't you flip them around? The tread on all tires should be running the same way.....true?
