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

The relocate will help you maintain braking power but I'm talking about the length of your rear brake line, with a lift it is usually near the end of its rope so to speak...

See how tight the brake fluid line is in this pic...

 

With no armor or winch or a constant load of some kind then yeah I'd say they're gonna be strong... really strong.

 

@Speedytech7 ok I see, I should probably go buy one, do you know where I can get one locally? I gotta go back to work on monday so I can't really wait for mail

 

Uhh, hmmm I'd ask SDHQ if they have any in stock. I got mine from Trail-Gear way back in the day, but you may be able to also get one locally from a company that makes hydraulic hoses, theres one on Baseline near Power I think

 

I need to drink a bunch of beer with you and have a quality, campfire argument.


Thousands of offroad miles on my Hankooks and zero issues.

 

Boy changing the Blinker Fluid is fun!

Not as bad as BMW's, those pesky Germans make it hard to change. No wonder you never see BMW's using their turn signals.

In all seriousness, I'm blacking out all the plastics. So the whole entire has to go.



New steering wheel too!

 

I've had a 3" lift in the rear for almost 2 years now and done countless wheeling trips and I don't have extended brake lines...I know I'm pushing my luck though. Don't be like me. It's on the list of things to do.

 

Cool going to have to check it out, might just wait till tomorrow to do the rear

 

Im never gonna have another..bye bye LBJs helllooooo uniballs.

hey hey hey...i an asshole know it all shit head..not a ding dong...come on man.

 

Look @JKO1998, a California blizzard!!!

They even had a plow out, I almost died when I saw that lol.

 

It snows out there in Sonora? No kidding.

 

This is as high as I can get it rn, don't have a good jack. I need to upgrade my stuff!

 

Git down to Costco and buy that nice Arcan 3k jack they sell, great price and it lifts high. Mine's perfect for the truck and cruiser.

 

I was thinking about getting 600s or maybe just some skid plates, rock sliders, and a winch

 

Ah sweet, going to check it out tomorrow then! @Speedytech7

 

Rarely, but 20 minutes up the hill it'll dump. We're right in the spot where it doesn't snow.
But the weirdest part was, it was only 43 out. Not sure what was happening in the sky, but it snowed somehow lol

 

Regular cabs are really light, I truly don't know what will work best for them. I just know that 650 would be tough for me to swing with no weight, I have a pretty heavy bumper with winch, compressors in the engine bay, heavy agm battery and sliders probably add a little weight as well. I'm not sure how much more they can handle TBH, skids might be too much for them. But when my truck was green in a former life and had 620lb coils with zero weight on them it was HARSH and obscenely tall.

 

Hmm maybe I’ll look for 600s
I do have an air compressor, but still not enough extra weight

 

Unless you plan on a bumper or something heavy maybe look a wee bit lower

 

edit: nvm the seat belt sensor is on the floor IIRC
