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

I havent even bought mine yet. But it needs to get done...doubt i will go OEM

 

I would stick with at least 881 coils if you are going to add a light bumper. If you go with 880 and add any extra weight they will eventually start sagging in time.

 

While technically not done today, I finished installing my OME lift.

881 coils with Dakar leaf pack.


The old crap that came out of my truck.

 

ready for a new home

 

What's a fair price to sell my 882's and nitrocharger shocks? Have some 10mm top plate spacer I'll throw in too.

 

how many miles

 

$10 shipped to me

 

How many miles?

 

I've done it before, years ago but still. Not too difficult if you follow the guides in the diy section.

 

Ive had rack bushings sitting in the garage for months but Ive been spoiled by the impact and ever since my compressor died Ive just been too lazy to do anything

 

It was a fun day for sure! Would be cool to go back on a sunny day to take in all the scenery.

 

So when I move the rack and pull the bolt out will it

Then is at easy as just pulling the bolt out and reversing it? Or do I have to unbolt the coilover?

 

Not anytime soon. Still won't be until Spring, soonest, that I get the suspension parts. Bumper would be later.
I wasn't factoring in engine size. Probably makes a difference.
Yeah that short lift with 880 is why I'll probably go with 881. More where I'm looking to get lifted to. 882 is probably too much.

This is true. They won't keep their brand new stiffness and lift. Long term definitely is in favor of 881.

Looks good. That rake is serious. I love the all black look. With that rake, it looks aggressive.

 

Coils went on Feb '13. No idea how many miles. Shocks I bought a year before that or so. I'll have to double check my wheelers order.

 

Softopper!

 

Can anyone confirm these are all I need to replace the rear main seal and bearing? Going to order it today and hope to fix it this weekend, but will probably take the axle to a shop or Toyota and have them press it on because I don't have access to a press

Thanks!

 

That is a pretty comprehensive write up. I think i would trust it..

 

Yeah the parts check out (the write up is for a 4Runner, same truck basically) just want to make sure I'm not forgetting anything

 

Should be it, and new shoes cause yours will be fucked.

 

Good call.
