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

Use the adhesion promoter that comes with it, and consider buying more as they barely give you enough. It comes in little wet wipe packs, though I'm sure you can find it in larger containers. It really makes a difference in the strength and longevity of the bond

 

What shift knob is that?

 

The carbon fiber is cool if you like that, but it's those seats that look really nice. What did you do there?

 

Not a problem. Comes with a little wrench and for now it's something I can live with...

But yes, I can see how having an internal TPMS would be superior. Definitely something to think about whenever I get new rubber.

 

Secrets? It's the cluster from a 2012 to 2015.

Here is the 2005-2011

And the 2012-2015

 

I just did that with my 2007 with a SnugTop. It was a little difficult to find a shock that was 8" compressed and 13" extended at 30 lbs. I thought they would be common. Apparently not. Is that what yours uses?

 

Getting the sub ready to go. Got the back wall prepped and the sub in the tray.

 

I just replaced my ugly orange lights in my cluster to blue. It was frustrating but SO worth it!!

 

Looks good! I see by that ugly building in the background that you are still out in Germany. Have you found anywhere decent around to take the truck offroad? I am just down at Landstuhl and have been having issues finding anywhere nearby.

 

I found them on Amazon for about $23. I needed a 14" x 24lbs.

 

I found a set on Amazon too, just not Prime, so who knows how long it would have been. I went locally for the same price, I just had to call around to about 4 places.

 

Got my compressor mount finished up -








Got the compressor mod'd and almost ready to go in. Upgraded wiring, ported intake/exhaust, and new relay -



Just need to finish stripping the ugly red paint off the compressor head then itll be ready to go back together. Then I can install it and finish the wiring.

 

took her and the lady to Yosemite for the weekend, it was quick but fun!
then on the way home picked up my BAMF sliders, can't wait to get them on!

just some taco pics, still have to work on the real photos, should be fun to edit

tunnel view taco

el cap taco


I wanted to wait for sunset at tunnel view, from my experience going to national park "post card spots" you have to get there early to claim a tripod spot, but winter is awesome there was barely anyone one there compared to how I would imagine it to be. Usually I like to go off the beaten path to take photos from different angles or perspectives other people haven't tried. But it is cool to go to the over run places because there is usually a reason its like that, Tunnel View sunset didn't let me down
We just chilled in the camper waiting for time to pass.

 

Holy moly! This is my dream.

 

Nice tint. I always cover the switches with blue tape. If I accidentally go to open them, I can't and I know why real fast. Plus blue tape comes right off after the few days needed to cure.

 

Well TacomaWorld, my retrofits have made it to the trash can. Totally trashed the headlight housings cause this dumbass can't paint. I have projectors and shrouds still. Anybody know anybody who builds em? Or has experience and wants to build em? I've gotta buy all new headlights now to start from scratch. Thanks

 

Not to talk down about Corollas, but they are not a truck. Someone hit my back bumper. Enterprise asked if I wanted a car, I jokingly said, which sounded serious to them, "If it's not a Tacoma, what's the point." They gave me a base Tacoma 4 door short bed 4x4. White with black fender flares.

 

Awesome work, that looks fascistic!!

 

Always nice when they do things like that. Koyo bearing (made in Japan) was $34 Canadian. It's the labour that costs, $200, which I thought was pretty good considering what's involved.

 

Maybe I can install on Friday after work and before I go to Toronto.... How long can it really take?
