Never delete these videos, there is an incredible wealth of information in them for people like me who intend on owning their trucks for their lifetime. Especially considering I've had that recall on my fuel pump too... After having Toyota try and fix some damage on the front I will never let them touch my truck ever again! They did a horrendous job, scratched the door, and on the return trip scratched the bed too without fixing the scratch I asked them to fix! Absolute buffoonery of a repair shop.
They’re not going anywhere! Thanks for watching!
So one dealership makes a mistake and you blame all of Toyota? Thats nonsensical. I've been to 2 Toyota dealerships here in Las Vegas and both have been excellent. As far as scratches go its a truck , meant for offroadidng, so scratches are going to happen.
@@johnnytorres277 Scratches should not be caused at the dealership. If I scratch my truck ok but not ok for somebody else to.
@@johnnytorres277 fuck are you talking about? dealership should never damage a customers car! If they do they should fix it free of charge!!!!
@@johnnytorres277 so you’re ok with other people damaging your vehicle without consequence?
I feel like this is the speed of repairs and fixing we all think we can do and then realise it took 6x's longer from procrastination than it should have. Great job. Keep up the good videos!
Exactly! When he says should take an hour I think “probably 3 or 4 for me”
You’re one of the only people on RUclips that aren’t afraid to mess your newer Tacoma and on top of that you document your mistakes. Other Tacoma RUclipsrs I’ve seen talk about mods and repairs but are never getting their hands dirty, they instead take it to a shop and vlog the repair 😂
Keep up the good work!
Those other RUclipsrs are lucky! Doing this much BS takes a toll. Lol
I binge watched all of these Tacoma rebuild videos until 2:30am in the morning. My wife kept asking me when I was coming to bed. I would say "after the next video" which lead to the next video and then the next video and then the next.
😂
You’re a fucking legend, you deserve endless beers
Thank you 🍻🍻
Dude is such a confident mechanic. Fixes it all.
Most realistic build on RUclips for your average car enthusiast, love the content👍🏽👍🏽
Nice to see a Taco Owner actually work on their "build". Most other stuff is fancy nancies throwing their wallet at shops and calling it their "Build"!
2:15 Blood on the knuckles, signs of a real mechanic. Good job.
Working at a toyota only 4x4 shop myself I tend not to watch Toyota content after work but I gotta say your videos have been a great process to follow
Thanks Evan!
@@mikes4x4garage How is 1st with the tune and super charger? I've driven a customers 2021 with a super charger and manual. I didnt even notice it till after when I popped the hood. Had quite a good laugh
Your first video on this taco showed up in my recommended a month ago or so. Ever since then I have enjoyed watching you fix it up, you earned a new sub. Keep up the great work, I am learning a lot too!
Thank you! I appreciate that sub 🙌🏻
One of my favorite builds on youtube. Always excited to see you uploaded!
Thank you!
Given the suspect previous owner, when you reached inside the fuel tank, I fully expected you to pull out a condom full of drugs. Great channel. I really respect how you’ll give anything a go. Looking forward to the next video.
I don’t often comment or check a channel often for content but you make an exception to that. I lost my Cherokee to fire a year and a half ago and ever since have not been able to go four wheeling. Watching you work on a newer version of my daily and take it off-road brings me the entertainment I miss out on. While it’s not the same it makes it that much better. Please never stop making content like this.
Great content! good to see a garage wheeler and not just the same old bolt on mod stuff.
Perfect truck to take off road. All the modern performance you can ask for, and it’s already banged up so you don’t have to baby it
I appreciate you sharing how much money you have into this truck. Really puts into perspective how much money a project can actually take, and I think that ususally gets lost with RUclips builds. Loving the series so far, keep it up!
Man I never comment but you deserve it. You’re a damn natural at this RUclips game. Keep grinding away, you’re going to be up there with the big boys 100%
Thank you!!!
It’s looking real nice man, super impressive how far you’ve brought it!
$23k for a newer Tacoma with a supercharged engine with less than 30k miles.. you kicked this economy’s ass my friend! Also this series is fucking awesome and I binged watched it all
You made lemonade out of a lemon, too bad the truck gave you so many problems. Sometimes gambles work out with very few problems. I did the same thing to a 1st generation Tacoma, the sweat equity is priceless and the joy & knowledge help prolong its life. Enjoyed your videos!
chips in sandwiches go hard! keep up the good vids.
They go hard AF
I came for chips on sandwich content. More of this please.
I obviously agree 100%!
2017 limited with 52k mikes. After spending 2k getting my transfer case replaced I’ve lost faith in new Toyotas. I literally want to tow my working truck home and sell it. These videos reassure my thoughts.
It's great to see such a young man not afraid to rip into his truck.
When I was your age vehicles were much simpler. I'm afraid to mess around with a newer vehicle.
If I wasn't already subbed, I would have clicked it instantly when you said "Chips on any sandwich can make it better." The most factual statement on RUclips.
Man I feel you on liking the autos more offroad. No problem just cruising on dirt roads with a stick shift, but it's soo much less work with an auto to get past the really steep and rocky stuff.
On a smaller vehicle tho like a wrangler or reg cab midsize truck, new bronco, etc I feel like a stick shift offers more control & “feel” for what’s going on underneath ya, also….if you’re in right rock crawling type off-roading manual has many advantages like ability to quickly alternate back/forth between 1st & R…which can really stress out an auto trans, being able to quickly drop into neutral is nice too. Advantage of an auto is obviously “2 foot driving” be able to stabilize the truck w/ the brake & load suspension while simultaneously giving it gas.
For a second when you opened up the fuel assembly and said ahhhh lol I thought it was a dead rat you were gonna pull out😂
Look at that HULK. That thing is going to be so fun and satisfying once you get it all figured out. Great work, yet again!
This content pleases me! Good work bruv. I’ve got a newer Tacoma and I love watching you take the thing apart AND put it back together. I’m also in the Bay Area. I hope to see you around sometime!
Over 5 bucks a gallon in commiefornia! God damn man, time to move out of that place. Awesome video!
@3:50 uses mallet that was found in the bed of the truck when purchased. Love that.
Good eye 😉
@@mikes4x4garage These are great, just binged your tacoma videos in one sitting. Great work dude!
@@laidlawmarkus thank you!!
Great content. And thanks for NOT being all full click bait and cheesy.
Brother! I have a 2020 tacoma. I’m the only owner and I luckily don’t have any issues with it. But I worship you’re experience and knowledge with this truck. I hope I never have to do this!
Thanks!
I dont know shit about cars, but your series has been enjoyable to watch. thank you.
very happy to see that you have made such amazing progress on it.
my only suggestion is please make a RUclips playlist for this series
Done.
lol your dog in the backround was super concerned when you dropped the fuel tank lmao..videos are awesome man keep em coming
Yo I just binged this whole series! Amazing job
Thanks Dan!
I have been watching from the beginning. I have to wonder what the hell the previous owner did with this truck and why? Seems like some many things were damaged in such a short amount of time.
Emptying the cats supposedly allows you to make more power (with a tune). Doing that is not unheard of. And with the SC it makes even more sense.
With the amount of money dumped into this truck Its safe to say its more then likely nothing to do with drugs and more to do with disposable income and the guy wanted to have some fun and built a off-road vehicle to beat the shit out of then sold it for dirt once it was broken
Just me, or does this thing scream drug runner truck lol
Looking good man! The truck came from Clear Lake... That answers some questions about it's history for sure lol
These are so interesting to watch. You are a good host as well. Keep them coming!
Thank you!
Good shit, glad to see it's all more or less working. I have the same gen 4Runner as this taco, no complaints about the platforms off road capabilities!
Im not into off road and I really been joying your Tacoma saga. Great job
I love watching the progress of this truck. Awesome you have the knowledge to do the repairs yourself. Saved a ton of money!
Me watching all of the adds to help fund the build. Can’t wait to see it complete and move to adventure content! Can’t wait to see the armor you design and build.
Awesome work man, truck’s really starting to come around. I don’t know you but I sure am proud of you for this crazy job
Thank you.
Hey mahn. Been here since the first Tacoma vid. Still here💪🏾💪🏾
Seeing this series progress has been exciting. Seeing you guys run through beers while doing extensive engine work has now gotten us to where we are and I have a feeling that this series is coming to an end here soon
Tacoma in the garage and SKX on the wrist.. you are a man with great taste!
Awesome, thanks, Modelo and Milwaukee
They put that yota thru the ultimate test lol
My current 4x4 Tacoma is the first auto 4x4 I have owned. All the previous ones were manual. Auto is indeed the "easy button" for wheeling. FYI, your catch can may cause you to fail smog. The steering racks in Tacomas are a known failure point, especially in trucks that are wheeled (or beat on). Glad to see it on the road (and trail), good job!
Love this truck! Quite a journey from what the previous owner did and what it is now! You did an amazing job! Thanks for the video.
Thank you!
Really like your perseverance getting this truck sorted out. PO should drive a tank considering how he treated this taco
I’m from Lake County. To see someone take an absolute “Clearlake” truck, clean it up and make it run like it’s supposed to is awesome. Keep up the awesome content and maybe I’ll see you out at Cow Mountain one of these days.
I'm also a fan of the automatic. I've had plenty of sticks over the years, and I don't care to row my gears. I've enjoyed dual clutch automatics the most.
Absolutely. I’ve got nothing to prove. It’s not a race car. Driving a stick is more of a chore in a slow vehicle
@@mikes4x4garage have you done the clutch accumulator delete yet.
@@mikes4x4garage I have a 21 Tacoma MT and it definitely feels like work sometimes. Love the videos dude! Found you through Reddit and just subscribed. Thanks for the content!
@@amocat11wilson48 just looked into it. Going to buy the parts tonight to do it.
@@mikes4x4garage let me know how it goes I never got the chance to do it on mine with 5.29’s and 35’s before I sold it. I hear it makes the clutch a lot more engaging
These third gen Tacoma trucks are known to have a dead spot between 11 o’clock and 1 o’clock in terms of steering. It will drive straight anywhere between 11 and 1.
3:03 great tune! 🤘
This truck has come a long way, keep up the good work!
Your doing a great job fixing and repairing the truck! Keep up the good work!! A project truck will need repairs but its now has a great owner! It sounds great and looking forward to ur new video on ur next project and builds!
Thank you
Congratulations on fixing so many bad/broken/abused things on your truck! You should have lots of fun in it! Thanks for all the updates and useful information.
Sometimes I let my mind run wild as I imagine the day to day life of this truck after it left the lot. It's like Breaking Bad but one of the characters is the Cat Lady from the Simpsons.
great series, awesome rebuild
The new dent adds character 👌
Taco has come a long way and is looking good. Also, sweet Seiko, I couldn't help but notice the 009.
I love this watch. It gets abused though, I wear it every day. Seeing how the prices are going up on the skx line I should just put it in a box for some years lol
The more stuff that goes wrong, the more content we get.
I love this channel so much
more issues make more videos LETS GOOO
Videos keep getting better and better, keep it up!
This confirms my suspicion that my pump and canister are going bad.
It’s a paint to put gas in and at best I can only fill the tank to read 215 mile range.
And it’s decreased from new when I was able to fill to 300+++ I’ve called and had them run my vin and mine does not fall under the recall
Good video and good info.
I’ve heard if you over fill these trucks often it can lead to that happening, and fuel getting into the vapor canister 🤷🏻♂️
Great vids. I'm down in San Jose and never heard of South Cow. Will check it out now. Thanks!
Wow this truck has been a real project. Your doing a great job at it tho. I'll still take it too😁
I like how it's set to view at 2:22 🤓
Awesome video!! The truck looks amazing and the off road videos are really cool :)
Bruh this whole series feels like a speedrun build with how well edited the videos are😂
Great series, looking forward to the next vid 👍
Thanks!
Looking forward to the rock slider video. I've got a '15 Access cab with the 4.0 that's going to need some. Congrats on getting rid of the codes and being able to pass smog! Cheers man great video as always.
Nice bro! Agree about the manual. Support RUMBLE!
If there was any question as to the previous life this truck had, the hollowed out cats pretty much prove it. Nice to see the truck get a second life after a tweaker.
at least you dented the one door that's already toast 😄
The more I watch your channel and your journey with this Tacoma I’m really getting a strong feeling that a tweaker owned this truck before you got it. The Cat converter missing was the biggest clue!
Keep it up Mike! Really big fan of all the things you do!!
Thank you. I rely on people like you!
Very cool! Thanks for doing all this
That's normal for the gas fill. Mine did the same here in California. You need to hold it and angle it a little upwards while you fill it. It's a PITA.
Man I've really enjoyed watching the rebuild of this thing! I totally agree about the manual off road. Personally I still wanted a 6 speed manual in my 19 taco because the amount of times I go off road compared to day to day driving I'd be bored driving the auto. Killer build and I'm looking forward to the next video!
Thanks!
Dude, that truck's Clear Lake origins explain the full on tweaker mode it was put through. Thanks for this series, it's been super interesting!
I feel like the next title is going to be,” the truck exploded… but I fixed it”
nice build! and dog! enjoyed the vid! hoping to get a tacoma or ranger in the future.
loving this series man! Great job! Blessings to you and the family!
Thank you!
Love it! Good to see it running the trail. One day I will get a TACO, but for now my F-150 4x4 is gonna have to do. :(
Couldn't help but to spy that beautiful Seiko on your wrist. I've got a Pepsi bezel air diver I love. My best buddy and I have been following this very closely, he has a 13 Tacoma that he will be traveling in very soon.
Thank you! Love my SKX.
I’ve always heard of you don’t like manual off-road it’s because you aren’t geared low enough. Sounds like it’s time for a Marlin crawl box!! I actually bought a Tacoma specifically because it’s a manual lol got out of a WRX and I still needed something I could enjoy driving every day. Love this little build series!
I look forward to these videos!! I also saw your Tacoma World build thread too. Good stuff!!
Nice little ohv trail
Not bad, those TRDs go for 40 to 50k!💪👍👏😎
The Colorado ZR2 has the same issues, dirt destroys the purge filter.
Great video repairs, driving, tips you name it, well done.
I would've just welded a little tab across the inside diameter of the pipe post cat to distrupt the flow a little bit. All the post cat sensor is sensing for is a change in exhaust flow. It doesn't care if the change comes from paladium honey comb or if it comes from a half inch wide by 2.5 inch rectangle of sheet metal welded across the inside of the pipe. As long as the airflow is lessened it wont throw a code or cause any tune issues.
I agree auto trans is the way to go off road. I have an auto in my XJ
For sure 👍🏻
Real excited for more progress. Keep up the great work mike
Nice SKX by the way
Another fantastic vid Mike. Just love seeing how all this stuff fits together and actually works. I’m learning a lot about my Truck from your repairs. Your truck looks amazing considering where it was when u first received it. Got to admit that I was sceptical on day one but your hard work is paying off big time. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Lindsay!
You might be a Floridian at heart.
