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

I used an inline fuse with a 5 amp fuse for the lights. Power and ground both connected direct to the battery. Watch a video on youtube how to connect waterproof led strip.

Between yesterday evening and this morning I installed my full OME kit solo at home. 884, original nitro shocks, full dakar pack with a 3 degree shim.

I did the Oz squeaky leaf fix on each end of each leaf pack with pond liner rubber.

With a DCLB the 884's lifted my front to 22 5/8" driver side and 22 3/4" pass side. I used the 5mm trim packer. Rear with Dakars (for now) is at 24 7/8" I'm happy with the stance and hope it doesn't sag much. Both Dakar packs were (+)

I was surprised how often I found myself using a hammer, pry bar, and 4x4. Anyway, very happy with it and look forward to taking it for a drive tomorrow. Alignment on Monday.

In the picture it's sitting on 267/70r17 Michelin MS2's and about 200 lbs in the back of the truck.

 

Looks great.

 

Thanks. I'm very happy with it but haven't even driven it yet except to pull it out of the garage. Can't wait to put some miles on it and see what kind of improvement it is over stock. I hope the tire shop is able to get me some good alignment numbers.

 

Used a cheap piece of door threshold, cut and bent it in half and drilled the holes. If you have a UWS tool box, you can drill holes on the inner side of the lid and use rivets without going all the way through. The lid is hollow for insulation.

 

I did a "mod" on my driver side rocker panel... used a boulder! It worked great!!!

 

Pics?

 

Im loving those headlights and fog lights

 

Yes

 

What size tires do you have and what size lift? Is it 255/85r16?

 

OME w/886 coils & Dakar leaf packs. & yes, 255/85r16

 

Bumper came out great! Did you make your front too, can't tell from the little avatar pic?

 

Added a BackRack:





Now for a LED flood for work.

 

Love those tail light guards? Where'd you get them?

 

Bought them off of a member here. They are made by SteelCraft.

 

Thanks! Looks like they don't make them for 2015 models yet

 

I jumped on the raptor grill band wagon

 

Full droop? Passenger has a new toytec boss coil over. Driver has stock with spacer. Which one should I be concerned with?????

 

Well with the spacer you have to figure that your down travel is extended by the height of your spacer which that's what it looks to be.

 

Mine is 2012, so they should fit.
