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

lined my Bumper and installed the other day

 

Let me fix that. Painted it white... Pics are reversed lol

 

Nice! what kind of bumper is that?

 

calcium carbonate mod

 

Ha, Mine hasn't taken to the truck yet, but he's just about covered our sidewalk a couple of times.

 

Relocated my back up camera since my bumper mounted spare tire carrier rendered it useless. Need to hit that area of my bumper with some touch up paint.

 

All pro----phenomenal bumper

 

Got kids? LoL
Parenting...

 

Right on. Our driveway, our sidewalks, our neighbors sidewalks, the truck, lol.

The funny thing is I drive around like that.

Yessir! Parenting the next gen for the future.

 

If I wasn't condo living my sidewalks would be chalked too. LoL They were at our last home.

 

Nice, you do your sound dampening project yet? I found the correct part number to the optional "all weather rubber floor" for our double cabs. Had to order it and see it before I told anyone, but this is the correct number for it. Figured that since you were going to strip the interior down you may be interested in doing the swap at the same time.

Toyota part # 58510-04870-B2

 

Had the alignment checked today. (post lift install) No major change in lift (1/2" more in front, 1" more in rear) Alignment was VERY near perfect before, and spot on after one small adjustment. No need for new UCA's. Got a print out in the truck. Will post that soon when I'm at work.

Had tires rotated and balance checked. One was 1/4-oz off, other 3 perfect. So much for all the whining I hear about how hard it is to get Duratracs to balance. 2nd rotation...10,000 miles this time.

Tire tech found a nail in one tire. #8 galvanized box nail. It went thru one of the lugs parallel to the tire itself, and did NOT penetrate the carcass of the tire.

Tire tech was a 20-something young lady who was probably 100lbs soaking wet. She tossed around the 265/75/16 tires/stock TRD OR wheels like they were nothing! Made me feel like a slacker....

 

Thanks. I'm going to finish my drivers door on Saturday. That's the last door. Then finish the back wall. I have no plans to pull the carpet out at this time.

Good on the rubber floor interior! If I had a big pile-o-money I'd probably do it.

I couldn't find a shop who could/would get my alignment right. Did you use a shop in central KY? If so I want to try them. I had planned on getting UCA's eventually, but I'd rather not if I don't have to.

 

lolz, did you have a hard time finding it or something?

 

Price? Pics once installed? I'll watch your build thread for this...

 

Everyone I asked about it tried to sell me add on floor mats. In this part of the world there were apparently none sold with the all weather floor option. When I'd explain that it was a black rubber floor like what came standard on the FJ Cruiser I just drew blanks.

 

How'd you paint that shift knob?

 

Bummer. I've posted the number in this thread many times. I wish I would have known. Glad you got it figured out
