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

Winter wheels went on, chrome wheels off so the magcloride they put on the roads doesn't eat them.






Makes it look like a different truck.

 

installed new window sheild wippers.

 

Since I do not have two tow hooks on the front of the truck, nor a front receiver/off road bumper, and with winter fast approaching, I thought that I would out a semi permanent tow strap on the front of the truck.

I cut a hole in the skid plate so I could loop a strap around the front cross member.

Here are the results




















I also disconnected the sway bar and had a little fun in the bush. The articulation isn't as much as I thought it would be, but more than when the sway bar is connected.

 

interesting.

 

Like you said: "Woot, I like em!"

 

Finally got my aftermarket hood w/scoop painted blue.
Bought the hood on craigslist for $150 what a steal!
Bought the scoop guts at my work's body shop. Installed
The scoop inset and grille but left the air guide out
So it is a true scoop! Kept the scoop black to go with my
Trim. Also loaded my Bed down with a 4x5 mule deer

 

Replaced spark plugs, air filter and cabin filter.. This cabin filter was disturbingly dirty! Also cleaned throttle bottle and replaced all the power steering fluid

 

Installed Borla exhaust and aFe drop-in filter, good stuff.

 

Rattle canned this found and to many imperfections I missed on the first sanding, sanded it and will repaint it on tues and clear. Warmer by 12 degress tues, high of 72. Stoked



Don't like the deep look or all the work involved so went the shallow route, very easy and simple.

 

Added Retrax Bed Cover this week

 

Just got done installing bilstein 5100s front and rear . The back was simple the front on the other hand not so easy. If i knew you had to take the sway bar loose and the tie rod ends and not to mention renting the specialty tool for the springs i would have let the garage do it

 

Tuned my CB and rattlecanned the firestik cap black. Simple pleasures ...

 

Took some pics of my headache rack finished and installed.

 

can you post a sound clip!!

 

Nice rack where did u get it?

 

installed my D-rings in the front of my box this afternoon.

 

I made it

 

^^^Looks awesome. I love the low look for glass protection. No wind resistance or noise either!!!

 

Really clean job. Looks great.

Now make a jig to duplicate it and get ready to sell them.

 

I really don't like headache racks per say but that is very sharp
Nice Job
