    Engine swapped Tacoma?

    There was a time when swapping out engines wasn't too hard. Of course, in those days there was room to spare under the hood and the main concerns were motor mounts and mating the engine to the tranny (not to mention finding out if the suspension will hold up the added weight). You still have...

    Need HELP finding a part:

    Check for local junk yards, scrappers or car crushers. They sell small parts. You remove and it costs a couple bucks.

    Just added new shoes and a lift

    Gotta love a black truck. How many inches? Did you use blocks, or suspension pieces? Either way, good job!

    3rd Gen fog lights

    This is my 3rd Tacoma. I've had one of each of the previous generations, but this is the first to have fog lights. After driving in a snowstorm a few weeks ago I switched out the OEM halogen bulbs for amber LED bulbs because the OEM bulbs lit up the falling snow so much that it made it harder to...

    Uninstalling Spacer?!?!

    Oh! You're talking about suspension blocks. I thought you were referring to wheel spacers that go between the hub+wheel to reduce tire rub in the well.

    What's a good website for Tacoma parts

    www.toyteclifts.com for suspension. One nice aspect is that they have front shock assemblies with the spring already mounted on the shock. No spring compresses needed. Unbolt + bolt on. Also, Add a Leaf (AAL) springs for the rear (instead of blocks). This makes it a DIY project or, reduces the...

    Who often do you wash your taco?

    Once every other week in the driceway during the months it's warm. Once it gets too cold (Dec-Mar) it's off to the automatic wash (brushless or regular) when weather permits to get rid of the road salt and frozen crud.
