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

If you have ABS, don't forget to release the pressure before doing the brakes.
Used to be just pump the brake pedal til the accumulated pressure is released.
Might want to check on that...
been a few years since I wrenched professionally...

 

Bled the brakes fully. Fluid is nice and clear now. Took some time but was easy.

 

Using the same wheel chock I welded together a bracket that clips directing to the chock and have d rings at ends. It is bolted to the frame via the bed bolts.(which are really long) only reason I did this is because the factory tie in points are fixed to a plastic composite bed. Which over time will break. I don't know just an option. But when I get a minute I'll send you a picture. I could dig one up.

 

i don't think i'll have to be tying the bikes down quite as tight now with the chock so i figure the cleats are probably good enough to stabilize it, especially with the d-rings on the rear. but i'll keep an eye on it. i'll be testing it out this week

 

Installed Piaa light bracket getting ready for my lights

 

CVT Roof Top Tent
Installed today by bobby himself

 

bought from EBay

 

installed switchback ck bulbs and modded 18 pin module so I wouldn't have to use resistors.

 

tried to do lighted 4x4 switch mod. Couldn't do it on my 2015 so I just used the whole switch from the 4 runner. Not a fan of Orange back light but at least it's lit now.

 

What's the part #? Maybe I'll get one for my 2008.

 

You should be able to change out the LEDs to whatever color you want

 

installed oe bug guard.

 

The bulb was incandescent I removed the orange condom but it is still orange.

I liked them but wanted an AT tire since I'm doing a lot more driving on the street these days. I only put about 2000 miles on them, they're for sale.

 

Thanks. Did you have to modify anything other than swapping the knobs?

 

There was no wires in the plug for the illumination circuit. I soldered wires inside an connected them to the green wire for prewired passenger seat heater that is not installed. And the ground is the white with black tracer from the same plug.

 

4 runner switch sticks out a little. The Tacoma one is flush

 

Finally shortened the front mud flaps. Much better.

 

Cut a few inches off my antenna and topped it off with a stormtrooper...
