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

Looks nice and clean. I can finally wash my truck this week. It's been over a year now since I washed it last since I've been parking outside.

 

Changed my oil today, outside in the pissing rain . I wish I had a job like the local meteorologists where I could be wrong 50% of the time (or more) . Anyway, first oil change since I bought my Taco. It went smoothly...no issues.


BTW, A couple of weeks or so back I was looking on the WeatherTech floor liner website. I would love to buy a set (front) of the lasercut mats but it appears they don't make any for the front for my Taco (2010 double cab manual). How can this be? I emailed them twice but no response as of yet...

Y'all are making me jealous with all these clean trucks today. I guess I know what I need to do tomorrow! Today I installed some 1" pucks... I've got bumpers coming soon and I ordered them with a 1" body lift in mind for future fun and big ties. The 33s are looking smaller every day!

 

Well being deployed keeps me from physically working on it. But that doesn't keep me from ordering way too many parts for her

255/80R17 ST MAXX
Waiting for SCS to get more RAY10s in stock
KING 2.5 EXT w/res front coilovers
KING 2.0 12" smoothies
BAMF shock relocate brackets
SS Brake lines
Bed side decals and 4" flags for the doors

Probably a lot more has been ordered, but I have lost track at this point

 

I'm new to Tacos...what is that bed cover you have? It looks really nice from what I can see of it.

 

I had them for my 2015 manual. I believe pre 2012 you might have to trim a bit behind the clutch pedal but that's it.

 

It's a Softopper. One of my favorite additions to the truck. Search on here for Softopper there's a lot of good info. Bestop is a similar product that a lot of folks on here like.

 

Where did you get that patch? I swore I was done adding patches to my truck but Id make a exception for that patch.

 

The AT ones work.

^^^this I have them for my 13 as well and they are fine but have heard older you have to trim

 

How is it? I've been wanting to do an inch body.

Any steering problems? How does the rear look gap wise?

 

I haven't gone anywhere other than around the house so I'll have to update you later if I notice any additional body roll, but slow putting seems just fine so far. My antenna hits the garage door now lol. The gap is noticeable, but not too terrible... I'll have a +1" high clearance rear in a month or so and I'm not worried about the gap till then. I'll put up a picture tomorrow of the gap and tag you with an update on how it rides.

I don't have any, but that would be an amazing start! I want

 

Worked this afternoon putting on the snorkel. And a few beers later....done.

 

You can pick up that patch on YotaMafia's website.

 

I'm around 2 - 2 1/2 " in the back so I've been tinkering with a break line extension spacer. I came up with 2 options. I ended up using the spacer instead of the bracket. Both work fine and the bracket gave an extra 1/8" but I thought the spacer looked cleaner. I cycled the rear and have plenty of slack.

I did that and had the ss lines a while back. Changing out the lines is the biggest pita, so little space to work on the top mounts by the tank.

It's hard to make yourself drill those holes but it's so worth it. Looks nice
