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

Sadly I have seen much much worse.

Been prepping for the NTC takeover at Rausch Creek. Did a ton of maintenance lately and keep seeing issues pop up. My trans/clutch makes a whine when I depress the clutch. I am told possible throw out bearing? I will be pissed if that's the case since I did all bearings when I did my clutch last year. Also seeing a leak from my t-case, very slow not sure what that's about either. It never ends.

Also found this gem the other day:



Treadwright says the issue is in the casing, not the tread so no warranty coverage. They gave me 10% off on a replacement though. The retreads were a good cheap replacement to hold me over for 2 years and helped me really get into wheeling but I think I am going to bite the bullet and get the MT/R's I want this next go around.

 

Damn now that's a tire bump. I think the worse I saw, was my dad had a set of BF Goodrich 35's. and one on one of the tires the tread was peeling off. It was like the adhesive that held it on was failing. Thankfully discount tire replaced it. Idk if he tried to tell bf goodrich about it.

 

Yeah, that tire scares me away too.

 

A soft tissue sarcoma, no doubt.

 

I had the same thing happen to me, had a dead battery, got a jump and My buddy forgot to close the hood all the way, leaving the hospital and wham hood to windshield. Learned my lesson though about having secondary hood latches lol

 

Which reminds me I need to take a look at my hood latch and the cable. It wasn't locking the hood down all the way when I did the oil change last time.

 

Here is my addition to the year of axle seals Do you guys usually do both sides or just the side that is leaking at the moment?

 

Do both. If one failed, the other one is probably not far behind.

Question for you guys. My battery failed a test last week and my friends and I want to go to a drive-in movie tonight. I don't think it will be able to start the truck after two hours of running the stereo, but does it get to a point that it cannot be jumped? There are two movies and I figured I would let the alternator do some work between the two. My friends will have another car there as well.

 

Just ordered 4.88 r&p for front and rear. And a Detroit locker.

I drive a stock 2006 Honda Accord Euro AKA Acura TSX.

I like it for what it is, its heavy, smooth and quick enough.

Stock is how it will always be power train wise however I might get a Hondata tune.
