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

Stronger than steel??

C'mon Toyota

 

It feels so weird on my arms.

 

That's what she said.

 

Here's what I did today. Criticism welcome.

Took my taco out for a wash

 

Installed by Homertaco himself! My new custom grill.

 

Man that looks nice, blue TRD? But that is just me.

 

Looks great! it looks like you moved the horns are you going to paint the radiator and silver pillars black? Its really easy and makes a big difference. While your in there hit up the sides of the headlights with some plasti dip for a complete blackout.

 

Did this last night myself. It is pretty easy. Rubbed it down with some water and simple green then waited till it dried and sprayed it up.

 

That shit is awesome!!

 

Flexed it, stuffed it and dented it

 

Dis three things today with the help of my cuz.

1) installed my mirror from Bob's Mirrors. Hardest part was removing the plastic trim and running the wire through the grommet. Installed the temp sensor a bit lower than the instructions so hopefully that doesn't make a difference.



Then, while I was at it since I took the grill off to make the temp sensor install a lot easier, I relocated the horn.



And lastly, installed the Redline hood struts. My cuz did that while I worked on the mirror so he "messed up" and we had to go to home chepo and buy more rivets. The driver's side was done first and wouldn't close because of where he installed the bottom bracket, so then he had to move the hood one up to the recommended spot. All good. Still made it all work! You can tell by tje color of the rivets on the passenger's side that those are the ones from home chepo.

 

OK, been busy.

 

That's also what she said

 

I just ordered switches for doing that w/ my too box. Soon I will have them ready to go.

 

Just Installed the LCE headers& returned from test drive! Diffentlty deeper throatier sound. Kinda different for a 4 banger. But enough pep now to notice so let's see how she is over time.

 

We've been having issues with a breaker box on the farm that controls one of the water tanks going to my grandparents house. One of the wires shorted causing the breaker to consistently pop, The issue is is the wiring was put in 10 to 15 years ago and now is all overgrown with blackberry bushes. My dad, brother, myself and farm handwent over there today with the DR field and brush mower and chainsaw to try to clear it out. After about 45 minutes and only getting about 10 feet into the trail. I decided "fuck this" went to the downhill section and started plowing up-hill in my Tacoma . The Tacoma made a three hour job job into a 5 minute one.

Halfway point looking up



And the three stooges who now appreciate the Tacoma

 

Take notice to where I drilled. Any more to the left and it won't make contact. You've got some play going to the right. That switch has 1/8" male spades coming off of it. I used 1/4" female spades to connect and it worked fine. But if you can find the tiny ones it will be better
