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

BTW, I have fish envy......

 

Alejandro, Like that TRD 3rd brake light. I also have a 2008 sport and want 1 for my truck. Can you tell me where you purchased it and the price. Thanks..

 

Me too. That was two summers ago. Boat didn't move much this year.

 

My interior LED kit arrived today....

 

Zip tied some pieces of rubber to Protect the spare Tire From sidewall gouges from the Frame.

 

Pretty damn smart!

 

Thanks! Want to keep the purty WildPeaks Nice for awhile! lol!

 

Thanks! It's a test run. I couldn't believe the 1/4 inch deep gouges that were etched in the original spare! They were Brutal! Hopefully this prevents that from happening.

 

Keep us posted. If this works I see alot of people doing this. Hopefully this wont cause another problem on another part of the tire.

 

Will Do.

 

I'd worry about water in there causing damage. I'd try to make those rubber bits as small as possible.

 

Rotated tires and cleaned/inspected rear drums. Pads look great for 25k miles. Looks like I have another 50k left in them. I blew out with compressed air, sprayed down with brake cleaner and everything looks clean as can be.

It's a bigger pain in the ass since I have spacers, more lug nuts to remove to get the drums off for inspection.

One hint and something I learned many years ago, I mark a wheel stud and the brake drum to orient the drum back the same way it came off. Don't know if it makes much difference, but I've been doing this for almost 40 years (get off my lawn you youngins!) and makes me feel better.

 

Just finish the install my Apex amber fog pods! Love the final result!

 

I'll keep a eye out. I will be doing periodic inspections. Everything is treated with Fluidfilm.

Extended rear brake lines, prepped OME leaf pack with extra leaf and 3 degree shims. Just need to receive those spindles then it's time to rise.

 

Installed Raptor nerf bars for my vertically challenged wife and daughter:

 

Self Etching Primer



Painted black



Painted Diff diaper



Cut exhaust

 

Dropped in husky liners front and back and cleaned the air filter while I had the shop vac out. Fitment is better than I expected, actually.

 

Got it dirty

Almost time for the pre winter detail!
