The better question is how does someone who treats a vehicle that away manage to pay it off in 3 years. I would have thought the bank wouldve owned it lol.
I'm on my third Yota build and am addicted to your channel. You are killing it man. Incredible work. I love seeing guys DIY builds instead of paying crazy shop prices. You will be forever attached to this truck after putting this much blood and sweat into the build. Keep it up!!
You've done a truly fantastic job restoring the mechanicals on this truck! No way not to be impressed! My vote, however, is for leaving the body damage as is -- scratches and dents and all -- so everyone can see what was done to it, before, and then be wowed by how you've fixed it up. Trail damage is "beauty marks" -- proves what it's been through. And you don't have to worry about where you take it offroad. It's the mechanicals that count -- and you've done a super job with them. Kudos!
literally found this channel today on the 1st episode, and caught up to the 4th literally release today; super entertaining to watch! mike is like West Coast Tommy from TFL [ car, truck, ranch, or whatever they add next] cant wait for the next video!!
Just got recommended this video and love watching people build cool trucks, keep at it! Toyota has had engineers firmly state that they continue drum brakes in the rear because they provide adequate stopping force, also less costly to manufacture I believe.
This series has been real fun to watch! I’m still a newbie when it comes to my own 4Runner so it’s cool seeing how you tackle all these issues that come up 👍🏻
Congrats on getting her running so smooth! I am amazed at how much better it looks. Clazzios are on my list. Shocked at how well that door panel popped back. Lots of awesome content. Looking forward to more! You will be amazed how fast that catch can fills up. Cheers from the left coast.
I'm prior military, adapt and overcome! I tell my boys and the guys that work for me" can't never could do anything" you're a can do guy, that's why I subscribed! I do have a Tacoma, rugged Tuff trucks.
I really like this series. Your editing is a perfect pace. The videos are short enough to be easily watchable and you actually make a lot of progress each time. Keep it up.
Wow so glad I found this series!! I’m in the middle of redoing my own project truck and couldn’t be happier watching you doing yours as well. Mad props to you sorting this once neglected beaut and making it a hero!
Terrific Restoration! Three things I know for sure now that I'll never mod on my 3rd gen... 1. Wheel Spacers 2. Superchargers 3. Giant Wheels 4. Super Lifts But I understand this is a 'Pupose' truck made for wheelin boulders and shit...ain't tryin to do that with my truck...just want get to work and back, do a bit of diy around the house, and make memories vacationing and campin with the fam...Nice job sir!
Man this truck looks great from the before and after look! U been working ur ass off on it !The seats look really good too! Ur doing a great 👍 job! Keep up the good work! Will most def be watching as the truck coming along!!
Mike,,just watched the other videos prior to this one,,,they really RECAP and show just how Talented you are!! From a fellow Tacoma guy,,,mine was new in 2017,,I can truly appreciate your mechanical abilities,your understanding of automobiles,,the cool, laid back attitude of your approach,,and the Homemade bearing Tool was definitely thinking outside the box!! You really should have your own shop! Love the video and truck..
The amount of change that has come to this truck is incredible. Seeing the new vid sitting here at work, I just couldn't wait to watch it when I got home. Can't wait for more content. Awesome job on the truck!!
Love your videos man, they are a perfect mix of ingenuity, explanation and lifestyle. I'm really glad to see this taco comes back to life and I'm always excited when I see a new video uploaded. Keep up the good work!
Dude its like you came from the future and already know how to fix everything, its crazy how smart and your improv skills are. Hats off to you dude, your insanely smart idek how you know all this stuff. Id never guess it was the wheel bearing. I thought it was the tune needing some tweaks
Lmfao bro be careful with those hard hat heaters! I love them too but god damn many many many people burn their houses and shops down with them. People close them up and assume they are out when they arent. Loved this build buddy good work!
Hey keep up the great work! As a fellow Tacoma owner I’m loving the series. I just really wanna know what the hell the previous owner did to the truck to put it in such a condition?
It must be my birthday. I just binged your other Tacoma videos last night and now I wake up to a new video. Amazing work btw, I actually had a 14’ Tacoma that got absolutely wrecked in an accident last year so it makes me feel good to see you bring this one back to life.
Dorman is my favorite company when it comes to quite literally OEM parts! I got a Ford Raptor SVT Third brake light for half the price and it looked 99.9% like factory! and the quality was so good! Anyways Awesome Video! I cant wait to see more on this tacoma!
Drum brakes are more amenable to use as a parking/emergency brake, so that's a good reason to use them back there. Drums are cheaper, and they're good enough to be more than adequate. If you use rear disks, you have to make a drum brake inside the disc rotor for the parking brake.
love the series i have a 1st gen and i gained some inspiration from you in building it love the channel i hope your youtube grows beyond this year cheers
Hell yeah Mike, stoked on your progress! She sounds great. Cant wait for the Air locker Vid. its exactly what i want to do to my Calvary 19 4x4 sport. Sounds intresting!
It’s impressive how far you’ve come with this truck and how much the last owner fucked it up so bad. They must’ve tried really really hard making it their life mission to break as many things on this truck as possible. Good work
as a viewer of all your previous work, anytime there is a reference to the 'previous owner + somehow managed' ...once those words are said it is impossible to be surprised at this point. previous owner, the destroyer of worlds.
Brooo I have come a long way, truck looks amazing and it have A LOT horse power for a tacoma. Congrats u most feel proud of your work! Waiting for more videos. I wish I know u was selling those ripps coils
Get all of your tpms sensors replaced at a tire shop my tundra kept having problems with that I found out that those sensors stop working correctly great vid 👍👍
@@mikes4x4garage also from what I've heard some of the vehicles have nitrogen filled tires and the sensor won't work with regular air great vid can't wait to watch on here the truck in the king of the hammers race
I'm speachless, your truck has come out so damn good dude. I don't know much about cleaning interiors but I wonder if you could get one of those brushes you add to a drill and maybe use some cleaner to get the skuffs off from the rear door panels and maybe polish in some car wax? Not sure if that wax is needed but maybe a brush to really clean up the doors even further.
If you keep putting out project videos like this, run up the views and subs, and pick up some sponsors and affiliate link sales, you could certainly go full time on RUclips. The no-frills editing and casual presentation style really works.

Mad props to you man, enjoying this series. I got a 2021 and I just don't understand how this guy ruined a 40k truck in 3 years. Insane.
Lol that’s a 60 k Canadian truck
RIGHT!
It’s easy when you trash them and don’t take care of it.
The better question is how does someone who treats a vehicle that away manage to pay it off in 3 years. I would have thought the bank wouldve owned it lol.
Pretty incredible. Mine is 4 years old and I still treat it like I just got it off the lot. Amazing trucks

I can't wait for more content on this truck!

Looking good! I'd definitely keep that bearing puller tool, I'm sure the other wheel bearing will be going bad sometime in the near future.
literally found this channel today on the 1st episode, and caught up to the 4th literally release today; super entertaining to watch!

I'd keep that tool incase another wheel bearing goes out on you....if one already went bad, another may not be far behind, lol
Plus you have it to rent out!

Thank you!!!
Man, this truck has come a long way!
The cool part is having all the homies helping out, that’s memories that will live forever
I really like this series. Your editing is a perfect pace. The videos are short enough to be easily watchable and you actually make a lot of progress each time. Keep it up.
While this LEGEND built a truck I bought a lift kit and some over lays….you are the man! 😎
Thank you man! Good luck with the lift
Wow so glad I found this series!! I’m in the middle of redoing my own project truck and couldn’t be happier watching you doing yours as well. Mad props to you sorting this once neglected beaut and making it a hero!

You are awesome and a great job on the Tacoma. You’ve restored my faith in your generation.

beer is good too
Amazing work. Can’t believe you did all that from your home garage too ! The transformation from ep 1 is WILD
Dude its like you came from the future and already know how to fix everything, its crazy how smart and your improv skills are. Hats off to you dude, your insanely smart idek how you know all this stuff. Id never guess it was the wheel bearing. I thought it was the tune needing some tweaks
I’m just figuring it out as I go!
Awesome video brotha ! I’m loving this series and I can’t wait !
Keep it up, loving the content brotherrr
This is so impressive! The truck looks so good compared to where it came from. Great channel, I get excited for each video that comes out!
Man this whole series felt gave off home videos type of vibe. Loved it can’t wait to see more! Definitely see you blowing up soon
Thank you!
Unreal, what a transformation. You all did a fantastic job. I knew when I subbed a month ago I wouldn't be disappointed.
I really look forward to your next video as I did for the last few. Watching this truck come along is addicting.
Mike love it! I love watching these videos then it’s like I’m spending a day with you without sitting in the cold garage 😂! Nice job!!
I have loved watching these videos man! I really want to watch another rebuild :D
Man you make everything look easy. You are super talented! Are you a mechanic by career?
Agreed.
I think he might have done something like that in the coast guard, not entirely sure though
Lmfao bro be careful with those hard hat heaters! I love them too but god damn many many many people burn their houses and shops down with them. People close them up and assume they are out when they arent. Loved this build buddy good work!
Cleaned up so well can’t believe that’s the same truck. All that work definitely was worth it!
Hey keep up the great work! As a fellow Tacoma owner I’m loving the series. I just really wanna know what the hell the previous owner did to the truck to put it in such a condition?
I'm having so much fun watching this journey!!
Man! It's moving!!!! Congrats!
The Civic truck in the back of the ending. Lol.
Dude been watching since the beginning love the videos please don’t stop! Cheers
Keep it up man! It's coming along super nicely. One of my favorite series on YT
It must be my birthday. I just binged your other Tacoma videos last night and now I wake up to a new video. Amazing work btw, I actually had a 14’ Tacoma that got absolutely wrecked in an accident last year so it makes me feel good to see you bring this one back to life.

I’ve had very good luck with them also 👍🏻 thanks!
Great work👏 You really did an astonishing job. I know it’s not over, but so far this series is pretty incredible. Liked👍🏼
Killer rebuild man. Probably one the best channels out there. How much did you spend so far to fix your truck ? Keep up the good work man
Check it out at the end of my new video! I do a full run down
love the way you work, building tools as you go !
Loving this series. Make sure to post consistently so the algorithm keeps pushing your videos.
Awesome work. Impressive transformation, Cant wait to see the next episode.

Really appreciate the good videos and especially the dyno time.
Maaaan, that looks nice. I applaud y'alls hard work!
those seat covers look AMAZING wtffff and mechanic skills are through the roof props to you bro
Thanks!!!
love the series i have a 1st gen and i gained some inspiration from you in building it love the channel i hope your youtube grows beyond this year cheers
Thank you I appreciate it!
Hell yeah Mike, stoked on your progress! She sounds great. Cant wait for the Air locker Vid. its exactly what i want to do to my Calvary 19 4x4 sport. Sounds intresting!
Coming soon! Thanks 👍🏻
Awesome been watching from the beginning, looking great, you’re a pretty smart kid, keep her goin!
Thank you 👍🏻
This channel is gonna grow fast I can feel it. Sick vids of the Toyota.
My fav parts are when you just make the homemade tools you got some real skills bro keep it up!
Gotta save that $$$
It’s impressive how far you’ve come with this truck and how much the last owner fucked it up so bad. They must’ve tried really really hard making it their life mission to break as many things on this truck as possible. Good work
as a viewer of all your previous work, anytime there is a reference to the 'previous owner + somehow managed' ...once those words are said it is impossible to be surprised at this point. previous owner, the destroyer of worlds.
Dude! The heated seats was the best touch to the truck😂😂😂. I wanna put it in my Jeep
This video was full of improvements, cant wait to see the end result. Good stuff!👍
I'm guessing the amperage worked out for the seat heaters and the aux power outlet? Great work man, fun build to follow.
Love the build. Great channel. Looking forward to more.
Great bro! Keep them coming... Maybe buy another car to rebuild.
Love this build! Been following since the beginning 🙌🏾
Definitely wanna correct that paint! But it's good man🙌🏾 truck is sick
Love the videos! Excellent work!
Idk if you know this but your hitting it on the head as far as any and everything that makes a channel successful.
I did the SAME thing with the Doorman heated seat pads. Threw them on, then put Clazzios on. Works fine
Wow! well done boys! looks fantastic from where you first started. And yes, you make it so easy. You got talent kid.
Brooo I have come a long way, truck looks amazing and it have A LOT horse power for a tacoma. Congrats u most feel proud of your work! Waiting for more videos. I wish I know u was selling those ripps coils
Hard to believe that is the same truck! Great job resurrecting a third gen Tacoma!
It’s coming along 🙌🏻
Cannot wait to see the next video! Videos are great and all the work you do yourself is insane!!
I give you credit Mike you have done ALOT of work on this Tacoma to fix it up but you are
doing a great job.
Get all of your tpms sensors replaced at a tire shop my tundra kept having problems with that I found out that those sensors stop working correctly great vid 👍👍
I think I bought the cheap ones and the truck doesn’t like them
@@mikes4x4garage also from what I've heard some of the vehicles have nitrogen filled tires and the sensor won't work with regular air great vid can't wait to watch on here the truck in the king of the hammers race
Nice work in a short amount of time!! I didn’t know you were in the bay too. 👍🏻
Great videos. Awesome you were able to bring it back from the dead.
That Tacoma is looking really good bro nice work, and good video.
Love these videos man!! Keep it up the content is perfect!

Looking good man love watching your videos. Good luck at king of hammers! Send it.
Thank you, it will be sent
Wow you’ve gotten so much done. I love the content and I’m looking forward to future videos from you!!
