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

Haha got me before the edit, I just noticed that, well damn lol

 

I know. My option is either pay $35 and drive two hours to the only scrapper willing to sell me the armrest by itself, or drive three hours and buy the whole door panel for $75.

 

That sucks, Ive seen some people parting out vehicles but nothing in gray

 

Yeah no one ever has a gray interior... just my luck.

 

Happy 4/20. Blaze the streets

 

No you're fine.

Your confusing them with 2nd gen shocks.

Our lower shock mount is moved is all

 

Ahh okay must've seen it on the mid travel page

 

I'm not very familiar with Bilsteins but the difference between the 881 and 882 springs is length so the 882 will give you a little more lift. The add a leaf is what lifts your rear the shocks do nothing for ride height.

With stock springs and the adjustable Billies you should be able to adjust ride height to male the front level with the rear. However by compressing the springs more you will likely experience a stiffer ride.

Personally I would pair OME 882 springs with OME struts. If you want roughly 2.5" of lift.

If you like to go fast around corners, you may like the stiffer 883 spring which is the same length as the 881 but a higher spring rate. You will have less body roll with the heavier spring. I prefer mine softer for off road.

You can have this just pay shipping

Passenger side

Note the dimples

 

The billies for the front, set on the lowest position, will give you ~2.5" with OE coils if those coils aren't wasted. Rear billies don't give any lift and are not height adjustable.

 

My body mounts are wasted. I was thinking of going with the daystar 1" just to kind of suppliment my suspension lift. How do you like this kit? If anyone on here has an ES branded poly kit feel free to chime in with a review. I need to do something. I'm down to one bolt holding the entire bed on lol, too much jumping. I lean towards the daystar because it comes with mounting hardwares, so I wouldn't have to source bolts somewhere.

 

wut??

 

Don't think my Kings do that, may need to sell em and keep my old 5100s then. Thanks for the heads up

 

Nah sorry, just a couple 4runners that were already stripped, they just got there yesterday!!! Man these people come after Toyota's fast

 

No...think you're backwards there buddy.

at the lowest setting (0'') with stock coils. There won't be any lift.

the highest setting with give 2.5''.
On fresh coils anyways haha

 

Sure glad you are around to catch all of my fuck ups.

 

Yea, my whole truck is done. outside, underneath, camper shell, bug shield, literally the whole fuckin thing. it added almost a hundred pounds according to the cat scale. my doors will not stay open at all. there's certainly some added weight. worth it for me. no pinstriping, dents are hardly noticeable, soundproofing, crazy ex's cant key it, and according to mythbusters, blast proof! have had it on for about 7 years and haven't noticed any fading whatsoever.

 

got my bed lined and was wondering if this logo looks professional or not? i told them it looked a bit sloppy but they swore that's how they do it on all the trucks they spray

 

Who cares. Ain't no one gonna see it.

 

Dude, I'm in the process of changing out my CV Axles (among a TON of other things) and when I went to drain the diff fluid- you know, get the bottom one before the top one- Toyota WAY over-torqued that guy. Literally had them do this like a week before I tried to get the plug off. By the way- didn't have busted CV axles when I got there, and left with busted CV axles...

What I did, was put the socket on it, got the jack under it, and literally used the jack and the truck's weight to get that nut out. You might try one of those "gator" socket things. I'd buy a new one so you can get the new one in once you get that bad boy off. That's my 2 cents- and what I did and it worked.

I believe the torque spec on those is something like 45 ft. lbs. It's not crazy like Toyota torques them to...
