Fuel Door Lock
1995-2004 Toyota Tacoma Gen1
Description
I took the concept from Coletrain and added some features to make it work just like the OEM part. With the added angle and some features to reuse the OEM spring, these additions allow you to simply push the door closed without the key. I printed this on a Mojo FDM printer out of ABS and the part held together for over 6 years before I sold the truck (it was working great when I sold it). Assembly does not require glue, just slip it in like the OEM part you took out, add some white lithium grease to help it move smoothly. I molded it in CREO4, the source files are attached as well as an stl and step. Best of luck, thanks.
Print Instructions
Standard FDM printing settings: - Layer height: 0.2mm - Infill: 70% - Supports: As needed
