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

I thought about just mounting the solenoid w/o the box inside the engine bay somewhere and putting the plug in the cab. I still might. This was a simple solution. Eventually, I'd like to have a something similar to what @Dirty Pool did.

As for the clutch lever, I followed these instructions to rotate the housing.

 

Lights!

 

All pro plus winch for factory...sounds like a win for you

 

Wants 300 cash on top and it isn't all pro I'm not sure what it is so idk if I'll do it

 

It's the Baja series not the apex.

 

Got my bed bars mounted today and the new to me rtt put on

 

Turns back on every few minutes. This weekend it wasnt so bad. Only turns on for a few seconds.

Not yet...ill take ot back to the shop...paid too much for that shit..lol

 

In your guys opinion,

How much are some 2nd gen, 17" wheels worth that have some curb/ rock rash but are repainted so it's covered and not as noticeable?

He says they're repainted/ a little damaged so I guess he's not trying to hide anything.

 

Pictures don't do it justice. This is the hardest obstacle I have done. Where I stopped for my buddy to take a few pictures my rear bumper was almost touching the dirt.

 

Honestly? I'm going to check to see what has more options for tires.

Are there more types of 16" wheels or are there more 17" types of wheels? Whatever has more choices will be the cheaper tires.

I know there isn't shit for the 15" wheels out there.

As for advantages, there will hardly be enough to worry about.

 

Was that for me? Oooor?

 

yes.

 

The dude wants 50$ for the set and lugs, I guess they're plasti dipped so I'd take that off and repaint, also only has 3 caps or whatever they are.

 

I don't give a shit what they want for them. If it cost 300$ for a 17" off road tire, but it only cost $175 for the same 16" off road tire, I know what rims I'm using.

I'm not searching to see what has more options, that's on you.

Just because something is a cheap up front, doesn't mean its cheap down the road.

If you really want a different look, then, again, that's on you.

From your pictures, it doesn't look like you have much trouble going where you want now. New rims aren't going to help that much.

BTW, love the pictures. Drop a rough GPS location so we can figure out the area, or maybe just the county.

 

Washed it and sitting here drinking a beer looking at my bumper. It looks off a little. My next project will be making it straight.

 

just drink until it looks straight. problem solved.

 

Pretty sure that's normal.. my bumper and my fathers bumper both have that off looking gap when looking at it straight on.

 

Not saying this is how they should be, but mine looks just like that.
