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

Scored some craigslist deals!

Weathertechs for $30 and a long bed mat for $60!

 

Mounted a set of Black maxtrax

 

Rebel

 

I have a LG G5 with otterbox, will it wrap around the sides for that? My old phone mount wouldn't. I like that one a lot.

 

Finished up the rail install. These things are tough and have great potential. I have to make some brackets for customizations but there are many straps and brackets available. They can handle 6000 lbs and a 2000 lb load. Since I am not going to load it to that extent I will make some aluminum fittings for weight savings. Anyone interested in a install kit pm me and if enough are interested I will make up some kits to sell. FYI it was a PIA to install but well worth it. I powder coated a few of the brackets for a platform.

 

Washed, waxed, and interior detail.

 

Got my backup lights in:


Thanks for the kick in the pants, @Casper66. More pics here.

 

Ok we can be friends now

 

Great job sir! I think you'll like how well it lights up your world behind you. If your on trails with others they won't blind folks behind you either. If you get your new bumper now all you have to do is pop'em in there

 

Royal Purple gear oil swap on the rear today!

 

My wife took a nap today after I did all the maintenance so I decided to wire my rear lights in. Was super easy thanks to @Iggy switch panel and fuse box.

 

What brackets are those?

 

@Shmellmopwho, he made me the left side so I can have my CB antenna too

 

I was just discussing placing rearward lights in that exact spot do you have or could you take some good pics of the brackets and where they mount please?

 

Sure let me run out to the car

 

Changed my front axles today. The driver side one was leaking, and the price was good for one axle so I bought 2 and changed them both lol You guys should have a look a your inner side seal, the one that is behind the hub. Mine was destroyed. I it the 2nd time it happens. Fisrt time water and dirt got in and it costs me a bearing. This time the bearing is still good but I would not be surprise if it goes out prematurely. I also weld back my exhaust that fell off earlier this spring, and cut the tailpipe after the diff. Still a few thing to finish when I have time but it was mostly a good day!

 

Thank you sir it's funny I was just talking about this very setup flipped over to this thread and thee it was

 

Washed the truck with my boys

 

Good work there bud what did you use to pull the cv's

 

There's a thread on here somewhere, but pretty much you drill a hole through the bed mat in the top middle over that middle drain hole in the bed and run some kind of bolt through it and attach it underneath the truck with a wingnut or something similar.
