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

Hooked up the OEM stock satellite radio fin to my Pioneer AVH-X5800BHS using a nifty little cable I found out about:

VAIS Technology Shark Fin Antenna Adapter, SFA12M

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BU779KQ/

Reception is so much better than from the stock antenna that came with the SiriusXM SXV300V1 Tuner. Well worth the $60.

WOWO ! You must smile ear to ear when you come onto this everyday ! Wicked Nice Rig.
Size ? I need a lift $$ to run these ?

 

The wheels are 20x9. I ran them without a lift and lower profile tires. I have 35x12.50 on them now with a 6" lift. It's all in what you want, this place is a wealth of information. I will warn you that a lot of people on this site hate 20's and drop bracket lifts. Haha! I have custom made center caps too,I hated those cone center caps.

 

Nice looking Taco! Which notch are you set at on the 5100's

 

Rear diff breather mod done! Cost about $24 in parts. Glad it's done before my next mudbath at work.

 

There's a guy on here who makes retros for like $600 shipped and they're great quality. I'll find the link for you later when I'm not on my phone

 

I got it, but thanks for looking out for me! One of my fellow CT thread members tagged me in it!

Trying to do some reading up on it, to see what I would need to make sure that it would work properly since I understand, so far, that the lights are a lot stronger so there is some wiring stuff going on, I think??!!

 

nope this wheel can be found on 1st gen tundras and sequoias

 

Anybody know if I can install a trd pro skid plate without taking my bull bar off? From pictures I've seen it looks like it goes on Inbetween the brackets?

 

Which bull bar. I've read that Westin bars can coexist with trd skid plates

 

Like this, I believe it is westin

 

@Frito I have a 2" lift right now with 275/60 Dynapro ATm's on them now. Had to trim a little. They are a rare find, and expensive. I fell in love with them when I first saw them on a Tacoma.

 

You should be ok then. I would call Westin just to be 100% sure. They will have a compatibility guide.

 

Fresh batch of Lucas 80-90w mixed with their oil stabilizer for the 5 speed gearbox and open diff. Been at least 75k (oops) with last batch and amazed at nothing on the drain magnet and oil was not gold as new stuff is but wasn't far from it at all. Didn't feel all slippery like new but wasn't far from it. I think I'll stay with this recipe but not leave it in there that long this time. Got truck with 50k on it and have only changed the gear oil out twice as of now and about to turn 150k. Also cinched down all the 3rd member nuts. Don't want any seepage.

 

@NABeast. I always wanted to see how those caps looked on the Deep 6s. I see money leaving my wallet now.

 

Well they don't go right In, they are too big. I'll load some pics on how I did it ,and tag you. The caps themselves are pretty cheap,but it was a process to resize them.

 

Hell yes!!!



@kgarrett11

Part numbers.

 

What'd I do to my truck today? Hmmm... well, I drove it. Turned the radio on. Parked it. And, um.... Damn boring weekdays.

 

Curious, how much was the total cost? I'm looking at painting all mine black, but I wouldn't mind going your route, which I think is better.
