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

That thing looks pissed off. Has quite the profile going on. Looks great!

 

Dam. I smoked out the hole neighborhood.

 

And I just noticed that I must have parked my Taco at the spot closest to the camera at some point. Rusting sump welds FTL! It likes to mark its territory. My parking spot at work is so stained that everyone knows it's mine.

 

Those bumps will work fine. You'll get more up travel with them and if you get hydro bumps you'll won't use them to the full potential. At least on the front. I went with these.



Sorry about the shitty pic. My otter box takes a beating.

 

Thx for the tip

 

I'd say she's a little dirty.

 

Have you been using it as a wood burning stove lol? Cleaning that alone might help it run a bit better.

 

That's normal

 

LT guys run porche 930 boots on the inners, only make sure they will fit on a taco axle cuz LT use tundras. Not sure if they will fit up correct, but I know the porche boots solve the tearing problem

 

Is there supposed to be coolant coming out of this little nipple below the backside of the throttle body?

 

Yes that's normal

 

I'd say that steak is well done. Seriously though, cleaning that especially if that is what your IACV looks like will make it idle a whole lot smoother.

 

Holy fawk your throttle body is the dirtiest I've ever seen one.

Clean the hell out of that, the IAC and your MAF sensor and I guarantee your truck will run a whole helluva lot better.

 

Pulled the dash apart to figure out why my dash light won't turn on. Fuses good. Everything else works, but the dash lights and ac lights. So I saying screw it. Running clean new wires to the bulbs on the cluster and change out to LED bulbs while half the dash is apart.

Moved the ignition wires to the other side of the head. I won't melt it next time around with the turbo. Just need to clean up my lack of patience with the electrical tape and get some clamps to hold the wire loom in place. As you can tell I really like electrical.

 

Started replacing the rear suspension, No Lift... stock aftermarket springs. Be sure to purchase frame Bolt ahead of time. No truck this week because I had to cut the frame bolt. Not sure what I am going to do with shackle. I managed to push the pin out of frame busing. It is very tight. I did not plan on replacing shackle, just lube and re assemble.

 

Hey gents. Which part is this? My 2.7 prerunner doesn't have one but I seen it in a 2004 3.4l 4x4 with ADD.
It's the one with the blue label.

 

Mine has that too, no ADD though. I think you're gonna need one.

 

@SilverGhost
I think it's an igniter, ignition control module. There seems to be a few to choose from, mine is just a simple black case with DS61 stamped on the top, no blue label.
Here is what I found.

Ok thanks. I'll start googling.

 

I just took an oem one off my truck never to be used again...
