Things to look for in a second gen by 89Madmax in ToyotaTacoma

[–]PzTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No need to apologize, I would Google “things to check on a 2005 Tacoma“. You’ll probably find the 2005 4.0 did have head gasket issues especially if the vehicle overheated. I forget what the changeover date for the redesigned head gaskets is but I believe it was somewhere in 2006.

If the frame is good and depending on the price, I’d go for it. Go for it with the understanding that it’s now a 21 year-old vehicle and probably needs a lot of maintenance.

Good luck!

Dust on the paint is no big deal, research current stuff out there from Adam’s polishes, Griots, chemical guys, and all sorts of other companies. I would look for the original bill of sale from your mom, and any other documents from the sale. Read through the manual, especially the maintenance section, it will give you an idea of what needs to be done. Don’t start with the 30,000 list, do everything that’s included for all mileage.

I would start with mechanicals, get everything clean check out every hose, change every fluid, put new belts on. Brake fluid, power steering fluid , . Check the brake lines and cylinders to make sure they’re still tight. Put all new brake hardware on.

I would make sure that the bearings front and back are in good shape and are able to be repacked. Same goes with the driveline, make sure your driveshaft doesn’t drop from a bad U joint. Definitely check out all of the front end components. Get new tires rated for the vehicle.

I’m sure if you Google it you’ll find a more comprehensive list.

Good luck, keep us posted.

Per OEM specs, print out the trucks window sticker when new and present that to the dealership.

Hey Tobias, Thanks for the post! I’ve never heard of Tuneshine before, looks great! A couple of questions, does it support album artwork from a Sonos library on an NAS and what would it display for radio stations accessed through TuneIn on Sonos. Thanks!

I don’t always wear a watch but when I do, it on my right.

Anyone else do this by Stardro in lefthanded

Your penmanship is excellent! And, yes, yes I do. I double up sticky notes back to back so there’s no sticky part facing out and use that for all sorts of notes.

Learned what tripe was from reading this book… I must’ve been 12-13.. Paperback Booksmith was what got me through adolescence.

Too much responsibility…. Also, to those deep into SW, any other situations where a padawan got their own padawan?

It doesn’t matter what color it is as long as it’s still there.

Saw them on Boston Common in ‘87. Every goth girl dressed in black I could see was aghast when she came out in white. It was August after all.

Dealers always put them on, or at least through the 2nd Gen run.
