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

My alternator is going, any suggestions on a new one that won't break the bank?

 

Today I took her wheeling, washed the mud off, then threw on some sweet flag decals

 

See if you can get it rebuilt by somebody near by, that's my plan. mines whining like a F-1Shitty(mostly cuz of mud but coming up on 90k so might as well rebuild), yours doing the same thing?

 

Yup, and draining my battery like mad

 

Oh im sure thats mines next step in a few weeks, but there are more important things to do first......like Ebay halo headlights

 

Took a parking lot picture today, t-minus 7 days until I'm in Moab.

 

Nothing major

 

Maybe they look more blue in person? I think they look great - nice and bright.

 

That is rad. I would love to know the parts and if you're feeling like it some wiring diagram photos for this. I've been wanting to do this but have been a bit nervous.

 

Painted the skid plate I traded some wild turkey for

 

This is where I got the info

Finished up my heated EZ view mirrors. Not sold on the mirrors yet, waiting to see if I can get used to them.

 

any after pics of it on the truck?

 

Not yet. Was dark when it dried and it's gonna rain tomorrow

 

Yep. When I painted my chrome grille, I scuffed it down with 220, etched it, then a few coats of high build primer over top of then. Then blocked/wet sanded/primed/repeated until it was straight. Then painted it.

 

Also, I finished stripping the chrome off the headlight bezels today and I picked up the paint I plan on using

 

Me too on puddle lights.

Does the ARB bumper just go directly over the stock bumper?? I never noticed that.

 

CL Find!

 

Did you sand it and stuff first or just paint right over it? I was thinking about doing this. Is that just flat black with the original texture? I think that looks really great but I'm pretty noob when it comes to painting stuff.
