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

I'm talking about the front diff drain/fill plugs.

 

No worries, we'll eventually meet up again. On a separate note, there's a wheeling open house in River Falls the last weekend in September.

 

Ah, that. Well... umm..


SAS?

 

Mmm. Send me some details sometime if you are thinking of going.

 

Well, rebuilt my e-locker for the 4th time... or maybe the 5th, Im not sure anymore.

 

Corporate 14 bolt.

 

Makes my truck look tiny lol

 

Finally got my first LED bar mounted and wired up on the new light bar set up.

 

I had to do this to mine

Hit a local trail for shits and gigs with some local guys:

Replaced the cup holder tabby things:

And had to make up some O2 sensor bolts when I tried to replace the O2 nuts and the studs threaded out and bent all up.

 

How did you make the O2 bolts? I broke one and made a stud out of a bolt and took it to a muffler shop but they told me they couldn't weld it on.

 

Picked up some stainless steel M8-1.25 bolts from Lowe's and cut them to size using a Dremel.



The 3 nuts you see are actually a bolt with two nuts threaded on so I knew where to cut and then used them to chase the threads clean.

I'm going to look around for some new studs but works for now.

 

I got that far but how did you weld them in?

 

I didn't. The old studs were threaded. Just screwed them in. This might be a little different than stock since I have a Magnaflow cat-back kit installed.
