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

Stance fap

 

looks like the factory metal thing that goes on the transfer case.

 

Yeah, I have a friend that is a mechanic. I took it out him yesterday to day a look.

 

That's it!!! I'm getting one!

 

Best $40 I've spent on the truck! PERIOD!

 

Today, I figured out a solution for my bed light switch....

 

I think I saw these on another forum. Some people were talking about some pretty big vibes at higher speeds. Shouldn't there be at least a little movement in the shaft. Seems like that might hold it a little too firm. Heard anything about these?

 

For the sake of not starting a new thread does anyone have pics and/or advice on how they installed the Clazzio center console cover.

 

I think it was a couple screws to separate the two pieces of the lid, then the clazzio cover wraps around and edges tuck between the two pieces before you screw them back together.

I remember it being simple in theory but a PITA to get it to sit right. take your time and be prepared to adjust it a few times

 

So far so good! Better take off power at stop lights for sure! I'm hoping to see a little improvement in MPGs but I only drive ~10 miles a day to and from work so that might not happen until I'm able to get away from work for Christmas break.

 

Its nice and I like it but be aware that for the 2012-2015 it will fit but it is just slightly off where it lines up with the plastic fasteners on the engine side. It WILL fit but it is tight. Once you get it installed it will be next to impossible to see that it is tight. Also, I had rubbing in several places. I ended up trimming mine slightly as it was rubbing paint off of the truck. It also contacted the hood ever so slightly so I put a few adhesive back pads in a few discrete places to minimize that problem. Having typed the above, I would do it all over again, but I would recommend if you install it that you check it soon after you do in order to minimize any areas that do rub.

 

Finally got my leds installed in my camper shell!

 

Is that a duct stretcher or am I losing my mind?

 

Duct stretcher?
Maybe you mean my come-along?
Been using it for post Matthew repair work!

 

Was about to say that too haha Ill be off now

 

Somebody is a tin knocker

 

And a steamfitter....and an Iron worker......but whos counting

 

More tools and truck supplies came in today. My favorite Tacoma 303 Sunscreen and 303 Rubber Seal Protectant with Foam Applicator. The Trim removal tools each come Labeled for its Designed Purpose. Also my Pod light switch with Harness. This is a OEM style replacement for the left side dash switch panel.

 

I'll never look at my trusty butter knife the same way again.
