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

Well I Finally pulled the trigger on a new set of suspension components for Cerberus and ordered my name tag today as well. Miss coming on here and seeing what others have done lately. been way too busy to post and read. gonna have to play catchup lol

Here is how my truck sits right now.


I ordered 6112 shocks with top plates, Light racing uppers for the front. I plan on using a 1/2" spacer on top of the shock as well to put it to 3" full lift ability. I believe i will be getting my caster set to 2.5 degree's as well with the new arms.
for the rear I am going to be using the matching set of 5160 rears with dakar leafs. I ordered two 2 inch lift bolts for the shocks and new bump stops as well as shackle flip kits. I also got new brake lines front and rear for the extended travel and braided for the extra strength. Once installed I will be testing with a zip strap what my compression is going to be.

I guess my only question is .... should i be worried about drop out height? limiting strap?

Over the last couple weeks I also put in a yeti grip for my shift knob

I also mounted the rooftop tent and went for a pool tournament down in the town of Cranbrook, BC where I was able to camp nearby to test out the Tepuli tent for the first time. Custom rack needs a little adjustment but that will come with the next version as well. I am so close to having the second version made. I just need to get a shop to make me some aluminum caps to replace the factory plastic versions and the rest just bolts on.
Here is my truck while enjoying White Swan lake. You can see the rack system which barely lets the tent open. I need to take the 1 inch caps off the end so that it doesn't come close to the tent. Just gonna cut and move the bars up and reweld them.

 

Keep your eyes peeled... I paid $712 shipped for my 285/75r16 KO2s couple months back.

Discount Tire Direct has an eBay store that runs a $100 off $400 purchase a few times a year... Buy 2 sets of 2 and you get $200 off a set of KO2s.

 

YETI GRIP FTMFW!

 

and I forgot to post that I worked on my trucks duel 12" fan setup today. just need to put brackets to use factory mount points on as well as mounting the electrical back up and ready to work with the new shroud. Probably gonna grab some rubber trim to protect the radiator and some cable ties that bolt down just to tidy it all up. Here are pictures of what I did.
Cut the holes and then attached the 1x1 to the edges using rivots.
Final product will probably be painted but I haven't decided yet.

 

Done changing the rear diff gear oil and T-case oil.

 

Do it for the dog man!

 

This is my seatbelt chime fix couple days ago, the dog didn't like the size of the one taking up valuable room for curling up. Dremel tool , 5 mins

 

Ok so I had to Google snell......

This one is machined on the cmc instead of 3D printing. Then I added color to it with one of my grandpas machines.
