1996 4X4 SUPERCHARGED TOYOTA TACOMA
Truck shopping for the first time since I sold my 80. Anyone recognize this truck and know how it was treated? Yeah, a lot of miles but.... :)
Who has the clean lifted 80 at DMHS? Saw it today while I was cruising around in the S2000 and I've seen it quite a few times while in my truck. Interesting to see another kid around here with a modded 80. :flipoff2:
So I was pondering. Let's say I am building a bargain bin 80 and I want locked diffs but it wasn't locked stock. Could I weld the front and rear diffs, stick a CDL and hubs on it, then just lock one front hub so I can turn when I don't need both locked? :popcorn: I am 99.99% yes, but I want...
Anyone have a replacement rear window glass they would sell me? I broke a bunch of crap today and I need a replacement window now. :rolleyes: It's one of the ones that slide.
Thanks guys
So I broke my only remaining keyfob for my 97. How do I disable this joke of an alarm so it doesn't look like I'm stealing a car every time I open the door? Sorry for being short, not in the best mindset now.
I don't have a thing on my dash or anything under my driver seat.
Thanks.
After doing a little offroading today I've been wondering if anyone has cut out, hammered up, or done anything else to reduce the rubbing on the front fenders.
This is my driver side fender after 2 hours with 33's, OME 2.5, and new 20k on new bumpstops.
The other side is just as bad... both...
Emissions is due on my 80 and I've torn my second exhaust setup to pieces so I need someone that can do a decent job this time but not be stupid expensive. Anyone have any recommendations around Scottsdale? What are the chances of passing with a leak between the cats. :flipoff2: How are the...
Great week here, HG blew on me today and I just had it towed home. It only had 118k miles on it, argh. The only good thing about the timing is that my dad will be in Thailand for the next month and a half so I can steal a space in the garage.
I guess I caught it early but we'll see. It...
So my girlfriend and I of 2.5 years broke up today and I'm moving back in with my parents. Long story short, what is the best way to sell an FZJ without screwing an enthusiast?
My truck has a bunch of issues that I'd rather not plague some nice person from MUD with.
I've been chasing a weird idle problem for years now, I go through phases where it drives me insane enough to chase ghosts but in the end I always figure the truck is fine and I'm just being anal. (anal, get it, haha. (nelson))
Anyway, I went around checking the resistance of the tps, iac, and...
Hey, I've been doing a bit of reading on the 4BTA and 6BT conversions. Most people say you need a 4" lift or so to clear the cummins oilpan.
I was reading through this thread on Pirate...

I'm tired of the stinkbug, who has a set of use heavies for the front of an 80? If you're in Arizona I'll trade you my Mediums if you're looking to scale down or something... otherwise I'll pay you for them.
Thanks :)
Hey, is there anyone that has a hookup on where to buy these damn things? I've yet to be lucky enough to come across one in Flagstaff over the past month.. :mad: All I want is the base system as well.......... Argh.
Thanks if anyone knows anything.
Does anyone know of any chain stores that will sell POR15? I'd be willing to go with something that does the same thing if it is sold at Home Depot.
I'm looking for something flat black or clear to brush on to a few surface rust spots on my truck.
Thanks. :)
So today I was out snow wheeling with a friend on a local trail (1 vehicle) in fairly fluffy 2.5ft deep snow that wasn't packing well. I came across 3 girls and a guy that had gotten their AWD Ford Escape stuck in the snow and attempted to help since... you know, it's the thing to do...
Hey, I need to replace all of my vac lines. Would anyone happen to have the part numbers for the skinny tube that is around the EGR and the big tube that runs from the valve cover to the intake manifold (iirc). It's the big fat one next to the PCV.
Thanks.
This truck is pissing me off as of late. It still shakes at idle in drive and has issues when cold. I just got my first actual MIL for a misfire today - #4. I just went and pulled the wires off the plugs one by one and the idle changed each time.
This is a video of how the thing sounds at...
Hey, my dad just got back from Thailand and were were talking a bit.
He mentioned that Toyota had paid him almost $1000 in brake repairs on the LC. I was wondering where I could get more details on this. I'd like to know what the actual defect was and such.
This has plagued my lately (past month or two) and I can't pinpoint when it started. When I cold start the truck it rumbles quite a bit, the idle sounds weird, and it revs oddly below about 1500; as soon as I get down the street it clears right up and idles as it normally should.
I've sprayed...
I've got a ticking noise now. :crybaby:
Symptoms:
Inaudible at idle
Inaudible while revving in neutral
Inaudible while revving in drive and on the brakes to keep the truck from moving
Inaudible when moving and off the gas
Inaudible when moving and on the gas less than ~20%
Loud ticking inside...
