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

Wow no way, I'm from Arnold, CA.

Small world.

 

Thanks for the reply! Do you know if I'll have any trouble with setting them at .85 and running a 3/4 in plate spacer? Like I said I'm also running the 884 coils and I have heard that you should not set the 5100s more that's .85 because it preloads there spring too much. Just trying to figure out if the plate spacers will be worse with the .85 setting. Thanks.

 

im talking about a throttle body spacer

 

They're only for the v6. Unless somebody creates one for the the 4cyl. Tooter had one in production but it was discontinued. They are hard to come by these days

Thanks for a chance x-overland!

 

I'm in!

 

Sooooo I'm still curious. Are you running 884 coils on stock shocks?

 

I see what you're saying about preloading the springs, but can I ask what kind of results you're looking to get? It seems like you want 3+"...if that's the case just be aware that you will probably need to drop your diff to lessen the angle of your cv. As far as combining the spacers with the 5100's, I'm honestly not sure what kind of results you'll get. If anything, it will probably make for a very stiff ride! I would recommend talking to the customer service guys at Toytec, they're pretty knowledgeable. And you can always find more info here on the forum! https://www.tacomaworld.com/forums/suspension.18/ would be a good place to start. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but if you've got any other questions feel free to lemme know!

 

Finished installing my Flush Mount bed lights from @Blais03

 

Nice! Now I've added bed lights to the list of things I want to do to my truck.

 

Looks awesome man!

 

According to my ultragauge short trips have been running my battery down. Hardwired a battery tender then used an extension to run the connex into the truck so I don't have to pop the hood every time I hook up the charger. Cut the grommet and pushed the extension thru, and applied plenty of rtv silicon after to prevent water egress. Getting under the hood and seeing a few acorns reminded me I need to do the rat screen mod at some point before they set up shop on my cabin filter. P.S. costco has these 3 amp 4 stage chargers on sale for 30$ (10$ off normally 40$) and they are 46$ on Amazon so that's a good deal.

 

What a transformation! I LOVE IT! Any rubbing or trimming?

 

Light trimming so far. Will probably have to do some more. Will update with better pictures ASAP.

 

Threw this in.

 

No one is ever going to get close to 3" with 884s unless the top plate is an 1" tall. Or maybe single cab 4 cylinder. And the diff drop is shit and causes more problems than its worth.

 

All I want is to fit 33 tires down the road. To fit a lift that would accommodate the that

 

You can fit 33's on a 2.5" lift with a little trimming. Hell, you can fit 35s on a 2.5" lift with some tubbing and fender cutting.
