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

I'm kinda tempted, now that you mentioned it. Never looked into those before. Need to find out how much $$ that'll cost me. I'll have a little insurance money coming my way soon.

 

I painted the rings around my TRD wheels and got rid of the last little bit of chrome on the truck!

 

Today I installed a complete OEM setup with 885 coils and Dakar leafs.

 

Got any before and after measurements?

 

Truck looks nice Logan!

 

Sweet!

Let them settle a couple weeks then measure. Trust me.


Also, not the smartest thing I've done, but my two year old knows how to start the truck

 

Installed the new front diff with 4.10's and an ARB RD111. Found out the ADD was dead and swapped in my old one. Also removed the swaybar after nearly 60k with it on. The initial drive around town was really nice!

 

That came out nice!!

 

I finally finished the color matching on my Off-Road door handles. Replaced all 4 of the black ones w/white. No chrome except for the rear bumper and I'll deal with that later. Prob go with an after market off-road bumper...

 

Added yellow tint to the fogs (eBay)

Debadged so I could derp. They're still drying.

Shortened my front mud flaps by 4" (with snips and a box cutter for detail carving)...to the untrained eye, it creates the illusion that the truck has been raised. Maybe that's why Toyota makes them so long - to create a market for raising the truck.

Painted the top bar of my bed extender with Bed Armor so the yaks won't ding it up so badly...maybe. Also still drying.

Hope to get to the under hood light and bed lights this week.

 

The whole point of using plastidip is so you don't have to remove the emblems from the truck

 

New stealth 10" super bright led bar fab tech tire mount. Problems with that.


New TC uppers, 33" GMG, and my foxes pushed to 3". A lot more coming today and Wednesday. Intake cb and 2' led bar all

 

Ah, yes, Master Yota...but how was I going to clean behind the emblems?

Wasn't comfortable masking and spraying on the truck and also plan to put a coat of matte clear enamel over the derp.

In hindsight and given the time involved in de-stickying the emblems and remounting the adhesive, perhaps I should have just derped on the truck and skipped the matte clear. Live and learn, I guess.

 

paid it off

 

886 backup light-bulb swap.

 

Hellz yeah...good job...it's a good feeling, ain't it?

 

Nice! Did that myself last week.

 

Yesterday....

Full detail, 35% tint up front, de-badged, Wurth satin trim paint on the grille emblem, and replaced all four amber headlamp bulbs with clear.
