Let's see your first gen - photo thread

I don't want to sound like an idiot but does someone make a drop bracket for the rack? Is there such a thing? I never got around to doing any suspension work on my 2006 but with axle spacers and a hammer I was able to fit 285/75/16's .

 

drop bracket for the steering rack? no.

 

If you dropped the rack without dropping the frame side control arm pivots or the pivot point for the tie rod on the spindle you would get toe change as the suspension travels. Same goes for moving the frame side control arm pivots or the spindle side lower pivot. The upper control arm pivot can be moved up in many cases to get a more gradual camber curve without impacting bump steer much. Not that it matters on our trucks because the upper portion of the spindle starts to eat the metal fender well about the time a 33-35" tire starts to hit the upper portion of the firewall.

It's called bump steer and it isn't the same as when people use that term to describe wandering when hitting bumps.

where did you get those flares?

 

Ebay

 

Haven't been able to find it, do you happen to have a link for it?

 

Here's the only ones I could find it's on carid.com. and there's more choices if you wanna pick.

I like that camper.

 

One of my friends has a super similar truck. same color and same camper, but his camper is black. Might even be same wheels if those are KMC’s

 

It's been a great set up so far.

They are Method 701s 16x8.

 

That is what i need on my rig!

 

yea, last summer I was driving on the highway and my driver side one fell off and Toyota wants 400 for a new one.

 

My right front passenger one fell off that's why I put the chrome ones on. The clips rust bad and that's why they fall off.

 

Nice to see another 1st gen out there.

 

Great pictures. Pictures like them deserve a post here. Give us the story of where you went and how long you were there.

 

Picked this up last weekend. 2004 Limited 4wd with 82k miles. Been on the lookout for a Phantom Gray Limited Double cab for a while. Excited to stop lurking and start posting a little more.

 

Looks Clean!

 

Nice ride, mixed feelings about bras. Fellow before me appeared to never take it off periodically to clean/wax. I chose to go braless....thinking of Bo Derek now

 

Was thinking the same. Bras are for women, not trucks

 

I for one would rather see them only on trucks and I really hate the look!

 

My first gen lol
It’s a work in progress

 

We need more details!

 

Bra is definitely coming off this weekend. This one hasn't been off in a while either so its a little stanky under there.

 

He's come a long way !
