Hey all, I'ts been a few years since I've posted and gotten a new truck since then.
2001 Tacoma xcab v6 5spd 4x4 trd 153000miles
I've had this truck since 2007, it had 117000 when I got it, unkown service record, but it's run good the whole time I've had it so it seems to have been maintained. I get around 18mpg around town and 20-22 highway which also leads me to believe everything is functioning properly. Anyway I've decided its time to catch up on any maintenance that I've missed.

Also does the Elocker require special gear oil?
Also should i use all OEM replacements?

This is the list I've compiled, just wanted to make sure i haven't missed anything.
Thanks,
Andy

What I've done:
117xxx fuel filter, full synthetic engine oil and filter
within the last year: battery
new revos
last month front brakes
rear brakes look good
cleaned maf
regular oil and filter changes


What it needs:
Plugs, wires
coolant flush
new gear oil for tranny tcase and diffs
clean tb
shocks?
clutch pedal bushing (squeeky clutch)
????

 

Bump.

 

Big question is timing belt and water pump. Book says 90K on TB, but they can go longer. But if yours is original, it's due. Is there a sticker on the timing cover?
Brake fluid flush?
Check front end, esp. steering rack bushings, TRE's, sway bar bushings, sway bar end links.
Do you have a cap and rotor? I don't think so....my V6 doesn't.
I also did a power steering flush at 125K--fluid looked pretty rank.
Otherwise you have covered all that I have done to mine.

 

i also got a e locker and just used redline 75w90 for the rear and the t case no additives needed and mt90 for the trans .... as for the wires ive been using ngk's from sparkplugs.com and it runs great .... for the plugs factory dual grounds from the dealer

 

I cant find a sticker or anything on the timing belt cover and i went to Toyota to look up service records and theres been nothing recorded since 75k, so my guess is that its never been changed...

 

Well, then, consider the Full Monty on TB/WP: hoses, thermostat, WP, coolant, TB, idlers, accessory belts, TB tensioner and cam and crank seals. Optional on the seals. But then you are good to go for 120K + on all those. One of them will probably fail before 200K if you leave them alone, IMHO. I did all except the seals at 125K. (I bought them, but all looked tight and clean so I skipped changing them).
