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

ran my power wires for my rear led pods. just need to finish the mounts tomorrow and install.

 

Cool find!!

 

Not sure what your building, but I like over engineered things.

 

It's stupidly simple, yet needed badly. Hopefully I can finalize the prototype within the next month or so and then it'll be ready for sale

 

In for an aluminum Jenga set!

 

Working on getting new shoes for the Taco Pro...plan is to put the 8 ply bfg's on my Tundra and up one size to 265/75/16's for the Pro while also dropping to C or P rated tires. Problem has been that I have 17's on the Tundra. Did a "Road Trip" today down to the Bay area and picked up a set of 2000 4Runner Limited wheels for the Tundra so I can swap the tires on the Taco.....I tend to like hard to find OEM Yota wheels (Tundra currently has the Graphite Tundra Terminator T3 edition 17 on it).....wheels I got are in very good shape but haven't been washed in forever so look a combo of black brake dust & old oak leaves...but for $80 for the set I can't complain. Not sure yet if I'll just buff them out or do them Graphite color.....when they be done the Taco is getting a set of 265/75/16 Firestone Destination AT's...the 17's will get a set of dDuratracks or such and become OR tires for the Taco...here is what I got and what they will eventually look like when cleaned up...

 

Great wheels. @Crom has some on his rig, and I had set on my 1st gen, seriously considered taking them off and keeping them for the 2nd gen.

 

They look really nice on that 2nd Gen! They are one of my favorite OEM Yota wheels.

Awesome company. They will print any custom text on the switch. I was going to have it say "Camper Lights" but then when I remove my camper it wouldn't be accurate lol. Mine are all the Contura XIV rockers. I chose amber for both LEDs to match the dash.

 

I had already searched but thanks anyway lol. I was feeling uber lazy yesterday

 

Sad to hear, Iphone is behind and lost the race like Blackberry people but still get them because they have no clue and think they better cuz alot of people still have them which are clueless and misinformed. Anyways dont want to make this a cellphone war. If Apple makes a radio for automobiles then i guess go that route but i DOUBT IT WILL HAPPEN!!!!!!!!!! ANDROID OR DIE!!!!!

 

I really like being able to reach stuff quickly. No problems at all with them. I think that's the standard size for the windows. Snugtop makes different versions so one of them may have bigger windows. Mine is the Rebel. One other thing I had to have is the flip down, sliding window on the front of the shell. It makes it easy to clean the rear window on the truck.

 

Great Find! I also like the older Toyota Wheels. I have a set of the other style alloy wheel they offered back then. They will be going on my truck next.

 

I like both older style wheels as well compared to the 2nd gen wheels

Having the differential fluids changed right now. Over my 500 mile break in on the new gears/lockers.

Hoping for a clean bill of health.
