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

And I thought Batman's utility belt was awesome. Dang!!!

 

Looks like thats it. Noticed it right after a long highway drive. Should I just watch it to make sure it doesn't keep leaking? or is it the kind of seal that if it is leaking at all=time to replace?

 

I need one of those for the pass. seat. Link to where you got them?

Yeah I hear ya. Function in Form is my philosophy.

 

Holy expo! Gonna get some ISIS?

 

Those are great for a double cab no doubt but I put one on my passenger seat in my extra cab and it took up all the leg room for my daughter (if/when she rides back there).

I would be curious as to the leg room in the double cab as well when the seats aren't pushed all the way forward for the photo op.

They are friggen sweet though if you have that much gear need.

 

Would be nice if you could attach something similar to the door panels.

 

Leg room isn't too bad. The nice thing about these is you can move the pockets around on the molle webbing to put the big stuff up higher so it's not hitting yur knees if you're in the back seat. I had two adults riding back there a few days ago and they said leg room was just fine.

 

Coverking makes some that are fitted to the seat pretty nicely but they are $287 from coverkings website

The smittybilt ones are are like $99.

 

What do I have to do to get a set of these?!

EDIT: I seent above post.

 

Anybody put aftermarket buckets into their trucks? Non caged trucks. I'm looking at a truck that is in good shape aside from the drivers seat. Aftermarket buckets might be the best solution

 

Check this thread out. there might be photos added soon but 4runner seats were used to replace the taco bench seat

 

Thanks guys^

Another question, is an 02 4x4 with 205k miles for $6500 worth checking out? From the pictures it looks to be in great sharp both inside and out. Stock too

 

Replacing the air filter on my truck today and noticed some debris in the air filter box. Should I be concerned and what should I do to clean it out?
Here's a pic

 

Thats a lot of money for a lot of miles. I got my 4x4 for 4500 with 160k on it.



Also, changed my oil today to Mobil1 Synthetic. I must say the oil filter location is the worse of any vehicle I have worked on.

 

Is this the first time you have opened up the air box? If so I would clean it out and not be worried. Maybe do the deck plate mod while you're at it.

EDIT to clean my airbox I unbolt it and clean it in the kitchen sink with hot soapy water.

 

Thanks for the response. This is the first time I've opened it since I bought it used not to long ago. So I will clean it out. I have been planning on doing the deck plate mod.
Thanks for your help

 

Ive been looking at prerunners with around 190k for about the same price and most of the 4x4s ive seen around here go for 9k+ they all seem ridiculously expensive to me but ya gotta pay to play. I just dont want to get ripped off

 

Yes it is worth it man
