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

It's a decent budget brake I guess, I built the frame and used the Swag Offroad 40" kit. I actually now have a single 50ton air/hydro jack in there. I'm just a small fry garage fabber working out of my home garage

 

Just got the truck last week, and this is my first post. Since the purchase it has been on a thousand mile road trip and got a few essentials things as well as semi-dry bed storage for winter in Colorado.

 

Looks good, mind if i asked how you attached the rotopax. Thanks

 

Bought materials to make a pour spout for my Scepter fuel can. Assembly tomorrow. Hoping it won't leak. Planning on using teflon tape and blue glue. Couldn't find the exact parts i wanted at HD, so i improvised.

 

Nice bumper, mind if I ask where you got it from

 

Let us know how it works out for you,

 

Work in progress:

 

I'm the opposite, mine came with tan & I was hoping to find gray since I've had tan leather in the last 3 vehicles over 11 years.

 

Welcome!!

 

Nice bottle opener!

 

Yes, I have stock upper control arms. I told the shop I'd leave it in their hands whether going with the 1.75 or 2 inch setting. I told them if they couldn't align it right at 2.5, go with the 1.75. They decided to do the 2.5 setting. The technician that did the work said the truck rides beautiful and my setup is the way to go. No noticeable positive camber. The driving feels better than I expected. No problems with wander or steering feel. Not too stiff. The truck tracks completely straight with my hands off the wheel. Kudos to the shop who did it, Extreme Performance in Palm City. I live in Stuart so I'm just north of you a little bit.

 

Did extreme treat you pretty fair? Are you level or still have some rake?

 

You plan on making anymore? I need a bracket for that exact spot.

 

You're a magnet for this shit, aren't you? lol!

 

COngrats and welcome to TW. Prepare to spend $$$$$!!

 

They treated me good. The price was competitive. The truck was done in 7 hours and I'm completely level. 22 3/4" from center hub to fender on front and back wheels. The pro comp 1" block in the rear leveled it perfectly with the 5100s set at 2.5.

 

This is good news, its the first I've heard of anyone getting it covered under warranty. How many miles do you have on the truck? I've got just under 40K and mine has started doing the same thing. I've needed to bring it in for a service anyway so I might try my luck at having them take look at it for me while they've got it. Thanks for the post!

 

I have the rotopax bed rail mount that they make.

 

Seems that way.....If not the dealer these careless idiots.

I told the service writer that I DON'T have any nicks or gouges and he said he would make sure they are not damaged and they still damage them how hard can it be? They make heavy duty nylon bead breaker shovel protectors for the machines just for this reason use them.....

 

Nothing I've done to it, yet, but will be doing in a few days hopefully.

Ordered my skid plate a little while back from Bullet Proof Fabrication, and just shipped this week so I should get it Thursday. Super psyched!

Also bought Weather Tech floor mats from a TW member on Sunday, were shipped yesterday, and should get them Monday!

And got the wife to buy me the center console organizer just now, so should be getting that soon.
