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

You see it....it fits well I think.adds a little rigidness to the axle and hold more fluid for better temp handling...

 

I did my roof to cover up the peeling clear coat. On your last coat you have to immediately remove the tape while it's still wet, otherwise it will pull like you experienced.

 

Meh do what Ben does, posts a few pics here and then the rest in his travel thread. I enjoy seeing the pics because I don't get to use my truck like you do every weekend.

Meh just throw that bitch in 4-lo and bee-bop around town. You can only go like 30 mph in 5th without screaming at like 4-5k rpm. That's what I do in traffic and I never have to tough the clutch typically

 

I crawled under it this morning in search of what is making bad noises. Rear U-joint is about to die & the CB need replaced. I also have a torn CV boot but everything else seems fine. And I thought the noise was coming from the front... Time to order some parts. Should I do a CB Drop? I doubt that is what caused the U-Joint to fail but maybe?

 

Id probably do that if I actually went somewhere, but I usually just go up one of the mountains around me and mess around

fyi - lots of comments & posts in the past 10 pages on rear driveshaft work/parts replacements. ps I'll swap you a rear driveshaft section (from the double cardan) with brand new UJoint if you'd like, but then don't read the above posts.

New tires

 

If you have the push button transfer case you can disconnect the blue connector and have 2wd low, it's awesome.

 

nice, you've got my same front end - including (or is that excluding) the upper bumper guard and those metal pieces under the headlights!

 

I have to put the front lift brackets on the bumper

 

It does disable/turn the light on. On a cool side note, I just hit the button with the truck on but not running and heard the accuator for the first time ever.

 

Where did you get that BPV bracket from? I got the Trail Gear one but it doesnt work; I have that same bolt in the way right above the bottom of the bracket on the diff.

 

Looks like the BAMF one

 

Thanks. Yeah the TG one doesn't have that angle to it (is just straight)....says it's for 04s but in the instructions it doesn't show that bolt being in the way, shows it being off to the side more. So there's obviously a difference in some trucks that they didn't account for; that BAMF one would work perfectly.

 

I’ve been meaning to get one as well, after re-adjusting my rear brakes and noticing the difference they can make I wanna get them 100% back in the game.

 

Tell em to screw off. If they don't like it then thats their problem. Your property, you do what you want.

 

It’s the BAMF bracket

 

BAMF bracket!
