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

Damn wish I had the legit tow package. A trans cooler would be really nice.

 

Yeah I couldn't imagine what the trucks without the tow pkg run for trans temps. It has to be pretty high when coming through the mtns. My taco was doing great though keeping up with traffic in the left lane so I wasn't stuck with all the 18wheelers in the right lane with Flasher's on creeping there way up.

 

Spent most my weekend installing three extra cameras for crawling (one front and two undercarriage) that display through the Entune display. A lot of work, but it turned out fantastic.

 

You oughta do a write up for the fine people of TW

EDIT: i noticed the hyperlink in your post lol.

 

Used this write up to add the homelink. Now I have both garage doors, and I'll be able to add the gate at work so I don't have to roll the window down to open the gate in the winter.

Don't get on a hp kick if you want to stay close to 20. Everything I've done has hurt mileage. However, the biggest problem is my right foot. Supercharger whine is just a glorious sound, except to my wife. Mileage doesn't really matter to except as a practical thing. I do hate having to stop and fill up.

 

No problem... I probably should have taken a few additional pictures along the way, but it's hard to pause once you start and want to just trudge along to the finish line.

 

Yes it does

 

Added some matte black TRD PRO decals

 

I don't know if "custom" lol but yes I just bought a 4x8 sheet of plywood and some fabric and threw it together last night. Took the pup for a ride today seemed to love it

 

Pretty cool, but I guess you will be avoiding mud now?

 

Heck no. The cameras are aluminum housed and have a glass plate in front of the lens. Fully submersible. A spay bottle of water may always be handy, but I'm not worried about mud.

 

What did the I.T. department ever do to you?

 

Did a simple mod today and turned into one of my favorite things I've done to the truck. Simple, cheap, and multifunctional... So clean it seems it should come stock.

First off here's the link - https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00T7TTK6K/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I wanted to add some always hot power outlets on the backside of my center console as I've seen on @JLink 's build. I got the how to information from him and went on Amazon to get a power outlet or two. I came across the outlet set including the volt meter and thought it was a good option. Now that it's installed turned out to be a great option! There's now additional charging ports for any device all the time, future outlet for fridge/freezer, and all along the way I can monitor how the truck battery is doing. Here's the install photo dump

 

Today I did Arts and Crafts and build a prototype back seat grab handle.

Used my Third and fourth hand to hold the core


Here my Prototype is completed. The final version will be about 3" longer overall and won't require the carabiners.


Here it's installed on the truck. Sorry for the Potato quality image, it's night time now.

 

I think I need one of those extra hand tool......

 

it makes soldering Coax Connectors so much easier.

 

Where did you tap in?

 

X2 Where'd you tap the power on those outlets?

I want to put in some of those to charge a laptop or power stuff if ever needed.

 

My blue sea fuse box under the hood. Been running every accessory since the the first mod bug bite off of it. I have 3 slots left
