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

Have to post a pic of where it is too, I havent had any issues, but I don't have a cap.

Edit: I noticed the smallest change in note with the exhaust, but it's still stock.

 

I cut mine just after the outboard bend for this reason. My 33" spare pushes against the exhaust pipe, but I'm not prepared to risk exhaust stench in my topper/ cap.

 

There's also the issue of dumping hot exhaust straight into the ground. Not an issue in the mud, but you could start a fire in deep grass. Not so much fun since your plastic gas tank is right on the other side.

 

The exhaust isn't very hot at that point. The cats will start a fire if dry grass is touching them for awhile (idling in tall, dry grass), but not at the end of the pipe. My spare tire pushes against my pipe. It's been that way for months now. If the air blowing out was that hot, it would have melted my tire by now.

 

I believe the shark fin is only for satellite radio; gps/nav antenna is separate and up under the dash.

 

Kool. I just want nav. I don't need that satellite Shit

 

Added some more armrest storage for shits at giggles. I had that grid thingy off Amazon, but hated it. It gets hot here, so the 3M tape did not hold it for long. After that it ended up just sitting inside my armrest sticking to everything.

I love carrying all kinds of cables with me (USB, Mini-USB, Micro-USB, 30-pin iPhone, Lightening, etc), so this pouch is perfect place to keep them.

 

That's going into my todo list.

 

Gave it a bath for the first time in weeks

 

Made my own High lift jack mount for <$15. (No drilling just sliding the bolts into the bedrails.)

 

Logged on today to show you the newest MOD, I finally got a pair of retrofits!!! Makes the whip look so much cleaner!

 

Turned 280,000 on my 2008 !

 

Nice, any major issues?

 

Bought myself my Hi Lift... Just need to get it mounted now. Figure I'll be ready for the long term in case I REALLY start getting more off roading in.

Also did the "remove crappy factory antenna" mod in anticipation of getting a stubby antenna that actually fits my truck. 4 Wheel Parts near me was out of one with an adaptor to fit my Taco in a 12-15" size range.

 

That's funny!

 

Where are those from?

 

That's nice! Did it come with the bracket to mount it?

 

Yup. just for sat radio, and reception still sucks. I loose signal under every bridge, tunnel or underpass. You figure they would get better satellites.

 

Lol that's with any antenna. If I stuck a satellite TV dish under a bridge I wouldn't get good reception either.

 

OEM 16" TRD O/R alloy wheels are getting pretty dinged up so time for a change. I just ordered 4 of these!

Joining the black wheel club. Think it'll look great with Timberland Mica.

Will be getting another set of Toyo Open Country AT2 (265/75/16 LRC) in September and will mount em' all up!

After reading some posts - it's my understanding that the slight offset difference won't matter with my stock suspension/tire setup.
