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

Dang someone had some money to spend... jealous. Looks great

 

Trip to Moab with my two buddies.







Poison Spider.






Backwards Bill



I took this pic. I'm not in it.





Uranium Arch.

 

New Duratracs after slicing a Firestone Destination AT day 1 in Moab. On the last/first real obstacle on Poison Spider. Nice way to finish an otherwise perfect day.

 

Very interested in the speakers. Didn't have to use adapters to fit them? Maybe with a new, more powerful headunit they'd be better?

 

So u Buzz and Woody installed skid plates, a hidden winch then went to Moab with some more friends and on the way home picked up some tires, before the sun went down, today?!?!

 

Looks good(Jefes Taco)!Nice Tacoma!

 

So it is a small world. Your buddy with the first gen passed me on I 70 on my way to moab on friday.

 

I used Metra 6x9 speaker adapters - PN

$18 82-8146 6" x 9" Front Speaker Adapter for Select Lexus and Toyota Vehicles, Black, Apple

82-8146 - and Metra speaker harnesses - PN

$17 72-8104 Speaker Wire Adapters for Select Toyota Vehicles - 4 Total Adapters

72-8104.

Id much rather add a small 2 channel amplifier instead of replacing my touchscreen/navigation radio. An aftermarket radio still wont put out enough power and itll over power the cheap rear roof mounted speakers. The speakers are 3ohm and can handle up to 90rms watts. Ideally, I'd like to run about 60 or so rms to them and a small 2 channel amplifier will do that well.

The mids/highs on the Infinity's are fantastic. Crisp, clear. The bass is there, but it become sloppy/muddy when you crank the radio up. An amplifier should clean that up.

Ive been using Infinity speakers for well over 10 years and have nothing but good things to say about them.

 

Noticed this on my way home from work...




And found these on my porch when I got home...





Anyone running these Cooper STT's? Reviews?

 

That makes sense man. I'm assuming the speakers have like a way to wire the amp onto them?

 

Simple.

Tap the front speaker signals from the back of the radio -> line out converter -> RCA cables -> Amplifier -> new wiring -> speakers

Or I may substitute an equalizer in place of the line out converter to better tune the system.

 

For that hidden winch. Get a flip plate mount,

 

Very nice sir, cost?

 

Don't people usually ask for reviews on tires -before- they order them?

 

$932 Out the door for 295/70r17

Touche...I usually buy shit for the truck when I'm drunk and tired of over analyzing shat. They where on my short list though.


In fact my Thursday's going pretty well...wonder what I'll order tonight

 

Beefy tires indeed

 

Been running Toyo MT's in 295's for 6 years(50k), I think I've finally got full clearance for them. Be interesting to see if these Coopers create new clearance issues

 

LOL

 

Digging that grille. Any more info?

 

Thinking bout ditching my 3" rough country soon and goin with spindle lift kit thoughts?
