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

Reason I went LED, shouldn't have to replace that one again for a (hopefully) very long time.

 

Finally got fed up with some noises this morning and decided to look into it a little more....
Okay so...few questions... If anyone could give some input or steer me to a link I would be greatful
1) Low frequency, pulsating hum while driving. Barely hear it at lower speeds but noticeable at higher speeds. Goes away when I put it in neutral and coast at same speeds. (Not tires)
2) Hit/pop/thunk happens when I feather the pedal. Happens a little when starting out accelerating but happens mostly when I'm at higher speeds - let the rpms fall - and then accelerate again (happens at the beginning of the rpm rise). Can feel it in my feet. Something in differentials maybe?
I'm guessing the first 2 are driveline issues but I dunno.
3) I'm getting some thunks from the suspension/associated parts since I replaced the coilovers/uca/hubs and took the sway bar off a couple weeks ago. I've re-torque everything. Doesn't always happen.

Any ideas would be helpful. I gotta go take a test. Later

 

Steel IMO.

Everybody has different needs and wants though....Steel is easier to make repairs on

 

Is yours a manual transmission?

 

Auto

 

Drove it past a house fire this morning. Nobody was in the house, but it was a total loss.

Dang it dude

 

Oh I was going to say that my manual always makes more noise in gear than out of gear. I'm sure it's normal in an auto too just because being in gear you're always going to have more parts moving.

 

Good point. I just hadnt noticed that particular noise before i dont think. Maybe im becoming more in tune with my truck haha..

 

Get rid of chrome grill & it'll look better IMO

 

The stuff I ordered is very smooth and not allot sticks to it.

I called in sick and turned the 4-wheel drive knob to the right.

 

LOL ... you are FAST! I barely pressed "post reply" when I got a notice that you "liked" my video!

 

Mind blown. Thank you for mentioning this. I was able to push mine up so that it's nearly touching the headliner. Can't wait to enjoy the added visibility.

 

That's next on the list and some type of leaf spring helper. I'm thinking sumosprings

 

#2 I had that problem turned out my u joint was cracked and had play in it. may want to get that checked
