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

Looks good, I'd suggest replacing the driver side caliper as well. They should be replaced in pairs for optimum and even braking.

 

Shouldnt really need to replace the calipers in pairs, unless the pistons are jammed or sticking they should be fine to replace one at a time. I replaced just my drivers side a couple months ago because of a seized piston , but I did replace the brake pads on both sides at that time.

Edit: it certainly wouldn't hurt to do so if you have the $$ for it though, usually is better to do everything with brakes in pairs

 

Oh, trust me, anything is possible. We used to fit 9 people into one of these to go to the beach on a regular basis. 3 wide across the back, one on each lap. One in the passenger front, with one on the lap, and the driver.

 

I've had 5 people in my truck for a 2hr drive once it is possible...

 

I need some help, sense I have a Supercharger will this still work?

 

I would ask @jberry813

 

Yes it will.

 

It wasn't a comfortable ride for sure, smelly river people. We had a gnarly hour long drive through a fire road/ wash/ trail. After looking over the truck today everything looked good except for the bolts on the front side of the rear fender flares. They were torn out by the tires rubbing. Overall I'm impressed by the 2WD, my buddies' F-150 and Ranger were in 4Lo the whole time but Tommy just kept on chuggin'. Deep sand is still scary though. The HID high beams were a Godsend, they win MVP of the night.

 

Thanks for the suggestion!

 

yes

 

What brand tie rod? price?

 

Im not sure the brand i got them from napa. The inner was 30 and the outer was 60

 

I went Weel'n' all weekend at The Southern Cruiser Crawl at Hot Springs ORV. Arrived Thursday and started running trails and left late on Sunday. It was a great trip!

This is from the bottom of Squid's: This is from the top: The pictures never do the hill justice.

 

Are those stock brakes? I'm planning on doing a Tundra brake swap on mine.

Here are the part numbers i used to do the brake upgrade.

 

Get the WL calipers if you are doing it, they are bigger.......

Also........

Stripped down my tundra axle and getting it cleaned up for a new 3rd w/arb, axle truss, and new bearings and seals......going sua so I will have to remount everything. Shocks, brake lines, leaf perches.....

 

Already installed the WE from what i read it sounded like you can only use the WL if you have wheel spacers? Is this correct?

 

Only some 16s clear them but all 17s do.

 

So, did my 1st 5K service this weekend [since I've owned it] and went from conventional motor oil to synthetic. I swear, this 3.4 runs quieter now . . . just talking the amount of engine noise when it is idling with the hood up.

Anyone else notice this?

 

Yo Logan @LSC15 washed my truck yesterday and getting some horrid condensation in the driver side. What should I do?
