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

For sure.

Also..

 

got my camper on, dipped the side badges and grill emblem, removed the rear badges and leer stickers. installed bedrug and working on my sub right now.

 

Yeah, for you guys in Cali, but when I looked at all my options, Eddie being able to ship them for, I think it was $80, through Fastenal from South Carolina to Texas pushed me his way. Of course I was not disappointed when I receive them. GREAT CRAFTSMANSHIP!!

 

For sure.

Hey, TxAg, what instrument do you play in the band?

 

Installed Amber Lamin-X on the fogs.

 

Temporarily relocated my rear shock reservoirs. Need to find some cheap mounts soon. Also, mounted my 30" LED bar behind the lower bumper. Seems like it was made to go there.

 

Finished up the rear suspension. Wheelers 5 leaf HD, All-Pro u-bolt flip kit w/Timbren bump stops, TX Baja rear Bilstein's installed with new hardware, adjusted the rear brakes. For the Baja and Trd Pro owners, the rear leafs are about 1.75 lift and the shocks have plenty of travel. No vibrations (thank you Jesus). Next few weeks I'll work on the front.

Thanks to everyone that helped out with the info.

 

The Timbrens are not all that good for shock absorption. Unless you plan to carry a lot of weight (where the Timbrens may act as helper springs), it's better to install Wheeler's Superbumps instead.

 

Thanks

 

I cut the OEM bump stops when I had airbags. Needed something to replace them, and they came as a kit. They're really just for preventive maintenance.

 

Bro I love the tires on your truck what size an brand are they?

 

Installed all 4 color coded door handles and caps today,
front were easy as cake, rears were easy after the 1st one, whole process was
60 minutes which could have been 30 if I ever have to do it again.

**

I have a complete set of Double cab door handles and end caps.
They are factory in black (not painted black) from a 2010 DC Off Road package ,
in great physical and working condition.

I have access to get them painted as well, if needed.

Make an offer on the handles and add $60 for paint or
just take them as they are. I have a can of Magnetic Grey 1G3 of paint and dupont clear,
it matches really well but please note every year "can" have a slight variance in color. This is
true when even buying color keyed handles from the dealer, which will set you back $270 Out the door.
at least thats what my local Toyota stealership charges.

Or paint them yourself with some duplicolor paint from your local Autozone or wherever.

Tail gate handle not included.

ps -selling because I bought a set of OEM color coded handles
from a guy locally and was about to paint mine which is why I have the
paint and clear.

PMs please and shipping is no prob

 

Because i was tired of my antenna hitting the roofs of parking garages...

I got a stubby...

 

Hard to know with out measuring angles. Try dropping the cb with washers and see if it helps. If not you may need shims or some combination of both to get lined back up.

 

I have the CB drop kit coming, at $11 it wasn't an issue if I didn't need it, didn't think of using washers as a TS method, thanks for the input / suggestion. I really don't want to tear something up that can be prevented.

 

Finally got around to installing my Bilstein 5100s. First time putting in any kind of suspension. I think I did pretty damn good.





Now I just need to get some new rims and tires.

 

Went to the fishin ponds to see if the RC suspension lift was really as rough as I've read they were on TW.

 

Used it to anchor my kites at the beach.

 

is that Galveston? God I miss Texas
