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

nice. will be doing my grill this weekend.

 

just some advice from my experience, make sure you dont use to much automotive adhesive on the sides where there is the biggest gap between the grille and frame. it tends to run if you do.

 

thanks.

what adhesive did you end up using?

 

35s, 17s, ARB Air Lockers front and rear, ARB compressor, New gears in the front and rear differential.

 

Annnnd.....it Still looks better than 3rd gen front end!

 

Removed most of the badges from the tailgate

 

And Tacoma and I were out on the job this morning , thought I had better take a pic of her before the rain sets in .some of these roads get pretty muddy.

 

Cant remeber the exact name, but it was just an automotive adhesive (Goop) from Oreilly auto parts.

 

Finished up my Blue Sea fuse panel. Thanks to @Pelfreybilt for a great panel that everything bolts right up to! Really made it easy.

Just have to finish up some initial accessory circuits for the interior.

 

Hell yea!!

 

I installed yellow fogs

 

I need to go buy some tonight. How well did your grille fit? Mine needed some "massaging" to fit.

 

Same here had to mess with it a little to get it where it needed to be. Once i zip tied it down i was GTG. Just had to add the adhesive and let it dry overnight. once i cut the ties off it held fine.

 

That's some nice looking rubber you've got there too!

 

Cool. Thx.

 

Just got home from the tire store. Did the 5000 mile rotation and balance on the Duratracs. 1 was 1/4-oz off, other 3 spot on perfect-a-mundo! Talked with another customer while I was waiting. Convinced him to buy a set of Duratracs for his Jeep Cherokee. The sales guy was pleased with me and gave me a couple $50 off coupons for any future purchases! That'll fit in nicely in a couple months when it's time to put new shoes on the wife's ride!

Now home to play chef! Gonna fry up some good ol' "House Burgers"! Not much else to do on a blustery, rainy day. 1.88" so far and more on the way

 

Installed oem roof racks

 

Installed my Goodyear Duratracs.

 

Looks great!


I have an opportunity to buy one that's never been installed. ($100) I like the looks of 'em a LOT. Problem is, My shop door at work clears the roof of the truck by less than an inch now, WITHOUT the rack. It sure is nice to be able to pull the truck inside and melt off snow and ice during the winter. I'll probably buy the roof rack and just leave it off until spring. I'll worry about next winter, NEXT WINTER....
