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

There is a group buy going on for these until March 15. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ystems-group-buy-ends-march-15th-2017.478218/

 

Love mine.

 

I don't, but i should ask.

 

Awesome. Thanks for that link. Had a friend who works at a local dealer and gets parts super cheap of course. The factory leather wrapped one is outrageous even at his cost. So if I'm dropping that kind of coin, I'm going to get something cool. And it's funny I came across your picture, because I just ordered a patch with that same logo.

 

There is not a Pro grille available for 2005-2011 Tacomas. That is most likely a homemade satoshi grille. $150 probably isn't a bad deal depending on how he made it. Those Landcruiser emblems are at least $40 and I don't think you can get the mesh kits for $110 - plus the labor that went into making it.

I used a mesh kit from @HomerTaco and a LC emblem, I think I had between $140-150 in my grille... Plus all the time cutting up my factory grille insert to make it work. But I got a deal on my mesh buying from a member that ended up not using it.

 

I have them too. They vibrate a little at idle sometimes and on bumps, but driving they are great.

 

She made this one custom for me (she had just acquired a new pin), so if you can find one of those pins, you could also ask her to make one for you to your specs. Where did you get the patch? I'd be interested in one of those.

 

Mounted up a new set of @mattgecko bed light kits last night!

I had a set under the bed rails for 2 years and loved them! But after I got my camper top, I really wanted to get them mounted up on the ceiling for more light.

I ordered a new set from Matt and added some adhesive backed Velcro strips to the LEDs and stuck them on the carpet of the camper top. The Velcro seems really secure, but I'm interested to see how well the Velcro/LED adhesives hold up in the hot GA summers.

Digging the new setup though!!!

Awesome product and great customer service BTW!

 

Calmed my OCD.

Got dang it thats one beautiful truck!!!

 

I love it when I think I got a good deal on something... and someone posts there's a group buy going on that is significantly LESS than what I paid for...

Oh well. I love my hood struts. Thinking about getting some tailgate ones too... Is there a group buy for those going on somewhere?

 

I should pay more attention to the GB forum. I've been holding off on picking up some of these. Thanks! Just ordered a set.

 

If you put on wheel spacers you'll stop scrubbing the UCA and start scrubbing the cab mount more. Do a CMC and you should be good.

 

Installed my new bumper last night!

 

I don't want to create a new thread, so I'm going to ask my question here.

Do 5100s wear prematurely when set at a setting other than 0? Mine have about 15k on them, at the 1.75 mark and I'm debating on getting coils, and putting the shocks to 0. I can see where added wear would occur on the springs since you are preloading them, but I'm curious if the shocks do the same.

 

The National Parks one is really cool. They also have the Wildlife ones that are similar. They have either a bear or a whale on them.

 

Replaced the AC caution label that was partially unglued.

 

At least +3HP for that one...
