What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Looks really nice. Logo too!

I wonder what the surround would look like in black chrome?

 

Slapped the g4 elite tonneau on today, love it!!

 

Derped the emblems!!

 

Got my Tractor Supply bed mat in. Cut it to fit between the wheel wells. I love it!







here it is flush against the tailgate



Also mounted my new bike mount. Used stainless 1/4-20x1 1/4" socket head cap screws and some unistrut nuts. Works like a charm.

 

Removed charcoal filter from airbox. More mess than I expected. Almost drilled through side of the lid.

 

Installed 1" ToyTec Rear Blocks.

 

Thanks!

Thanks!

 

Looks good. I like the rail location. I just got my extra rail and am waiting on the end caps. Then I will install it on my UWS box like you did! How did you secure yours?

 

Thanks! It fits perfectly under the overhang on the UWS. It was a perfect fit with no trimming at all. I removed the rail from the front of the bed and just reused the bolts (all 5) with some Nylock nuts, no issues in over a year!

 

I love the 12 and 13 models, its the subtle changes which are always awesome. You are still in good shape with that 11 though. It looks beautiful!

 

Ok sounds good. I remove my toolbox some times. That's why I purchased another unit. I did a test fit; and you're right, it fits perfect. I just want a clean install so I ordered the caps as well. I have the deep box and my rail hangs past the angled sides a little. So I'll need to trim a couple of inches off.

 

Very nice! Looks a little different from mine. but i also got the 4x6 stall mat from them, I did not cut around the D rings. I have pic in my build of mine. $43 with tax. fuck paying $100+ at the dealer.

 

Cleaned the battery terminals. Replaced an H3 fog ought bulb. Replaced air filter.

 

That's exactly what mine is, the stall mat for $40 plus tax. The one I got has two sides, a smooth and textured. I went for textured side up. And yes I feel as it is a better and cheaper option than the factory bed mat.

edit: just looked at yours, yes they must have changed the design a little bit.

 

yep. so does mine, one side has grooves and one side does not. I have the side that does not have the lines/grooves up.

and yeah it’s like 2x as thick as the oem mat. I also saw/noticed it helped with traction in rain. like starting from a stop on a hill on stuff. i was that it’s like 110LBS I cut 1’ off and around wheel wells. so mine is probably 85 or so.

edit: i my buddies dad had one. and it had like a diamond pattern to it. I saw it agin at a different store after i got mine. so i guess the make a few patterns.

 

Yeah that mofo is heavy! I had to wrestle it out of the truck and back into the truck after I trimmed it up. I would imagine a bystander would have gotten a chuckle seeing me fight with that thing.

I know what you are talking about with the traction. A little weight can go a long way.

 

yeah the caps will clean it right on up! an angle grinder or hack saw will make quick work of the rail.

 

yeah. i had to fight it to get it out. dad helped me cut it and put it back in. I pulled it out a month or so ago and washed the bed out, and had to have help putting it back.

edit: i think if it did not flex it would be a lot easier. like ply wood or something that does not really flex at all.

 

Picked my baby up on Friday. First thing so far was this sticker. Cover going on the back this Tuesday. Perhaps some plasti-derping on the emblems. I'm not a huge do it yourself type guy. I tend to break things more than help the situation when I try to do handy work. Haha. Later down the line once I get some more $$ is going to be an exhaust.

 

Pendleton still has sand huh ??
