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

I know Wilco makes one. Idk if that's the brand or not your talking bout

 

Yep, that's the one. Their website product photo for the Tacoma is actually @Unchained 5150 's truck!

That looks really cool, but I'd miss my backup camera.

 

Well, SHIT. I will have to fix that. SHIT.

 

I just added a full size spare with New Denso TPMS and haven't tried programming it yet. This tire is on the rear axle and It hasn't triggered the dash light after two weeks of driving. Mines a '14 and it sounds like the dealer could be correct.

 

Nah no luck that day. Was only able to stay for about 2 hours though.

 

Yeah, I'm just worried about bubbles and whatnot with that big of a area to cover lol

 

Never noticed it was on the site I will have to check that out. P.M. if you want to buy something I have a special code

 

They sell a relocate kit for the camera

 

It sounds like after 2012ish, the Tacoma switched to 4 sensor, instead of 5 sensor, ECU... At least that's what another dealer told me this after I left the first place.

It kinda pisses me off because last year when I asked about adding a TPMS to my full-size spare, they tried to sell me the $95 Toyota one for it... No questions asked.

 

My '11 doesnt have one in the spare.

 

But I wonder if your TPMS ecu can store 4 or 5 sensors? I just assumed that Toyota dropped including the spare TPMS... I wouldn't figure they'd completely change ecus to one that only reads 4 sensors.

 

Did you just re-drilled holes?

 

That sucks they tried to Peal Ya!
My Denso sensor

$38 550-0103 TPMS 315-MHZ Sensor for Toyota/Lexus with Factory Alloy Wheel Options. (THIS SENSOR MUST BE PROGRAMMED BEFORE USE), Black

550-0103 was $37.00 and is OEM quality. It probably wasn't necessary, but it's installed and is there if I need it in the future. It also matches the other four tires as I'll be including the Spare in my tire rotations.

 

All done yesterday and pictures as promised:

OEM 4pin Harness installed:

Fog Light anytime mod:




Toywerx sticker from @HomerTaco

 

It looks like you have the OEM hitch as well as the place the OEM 7 pin wiring harness goes. What's the story there?

 

Not a factory tow package truck. I'm adding it all in. (4pin was what i could get from the dealer at the time so i just went with it)

Already have the Tow package hitch and frame braces. Bigger battery.

When the alternator goes, i'll go bigger there.

Hopefully this spring i can get a trans cooler on it.

 

Correct! Just drilled new ones and tapped them out. BAM, relocated for free! I also sprayed some rust preventative spray paint and allowed that to dry before mounting it.

 

Took it to get some grocery.

 

Attempted to do a spark plug change, got my 10mm stuck 3 times on the spark plug lol I don't know if I should have it done at a shop or just keep trying.

 

Whats the deal with that window tint? You have shades in there?
