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

Got my sliders on today. Pics later in my build thread.

 

Just went out and measured the spacers and they are about 9/16. Maybe a hair under that.

Why don't you ask you're spring guy ???..........you sum kinda derp er wat ??

 

You want 3/4" of drop for carrier Logan, get a 1/2" thread female coupler for all thread & cut it in half (they're 1.5" long) Done... you now have 2-3/4" spacers that fit nicely over the stock bolts that hold the carrier on....

Hillbilly ingenuity...works great, no more vibs...

 

Inner component of the exterior door handle broke. Took the door apart to fix it but it's cracked in half and I'm gonna need a new one. Only problem is the Toyota parts department is closed on Sunday. Guess I'm getting in from the passenger side and rolling around with the door torn apart for a few days.

 

Probably won't be a step by step type of diy, but I'll see what I can put together when I start doin em. I plan on taking em to a machine shop on 47th ave, I don't know the name of the place though. My bro took his lower ball joints and such there to get pressed out n on for like $25. I'm hoping to get charged around that price for each of my wheel bearings.

 

I put a CBI swingout bumper on my rig!

 

I don't think my stock bolts will fit though

 

Shined her up real good today. Took a clay bar to some spots

 

Mounted the high lift, and the rear light on the bed rack today

 

Pics..................

 

How did you mount the high lift?

 

I was about to say the same.. Pretty sure with my 9/16" spacers the bolts fit perfect. There is like 2 threads above the nut or so.

Where are the pics?? I just got my cbi bumper on too very happy with how it came out.

 

I welded some threaded bolt onto some exhaust clamps and bolted them onto the rack. It seams really solid.

 

No. ok, that's what I figured. well we towed it back to my grandmother's. I'm gonna look for some paperwork, and figure it out from there. Thanx

 

I kinda figured that. is that something that can be rented?

 

Nope, not yet. But my stepdad will prolly be able to help figure it out and if not, he's got a friend that's a mechanic at a Honda dealership. I've been meaning to pickup one of those, but currently unemployed, and quite a few expenses

 

ahem... theres a reason I told you about this Logan, yes they will fit
