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

Thanks! Used a prybar and a hammer the prybar sits well in the notch on the cv axle, and then punch a few good shot on the handle of the bar to pop the cv out of the diff.

 

Have done it that way which works well kudos on the effort they're usually a pain. They also make a pull rope I can't remember who makes it but this reminds me I need to get one

 

Changed out battery terminals and put in a new battery the old one only last 12 years the 2 g eyelet terminal wouldn't fit the ground but luckily they had a 2/0 and that worked.

got this in the mail and I'll hook it up tomorrow.

Mounted my led flush mount lights on the rear bumper. It was a pita cause I don't have a compressor right now so half my tools are useless. I used a sawsaz and that worked fine. I would have not done it that way if the bumper was nice. My bumper bent and rusted after a few conversations it's had with trees and rocks along the trail.

 

lol ... what's your secret ?

 

Well, I was gonna do some mods today but the mountain trails were calling.

 

I was sad to part with it but it started to get waves in it and I'm going on a trip through Colorado. I think ignoring it and taking it for granted works

 

Driver side one was a pain! Used a bit (a lot) of my father's knowledge for tricks and tips to get it all done. I saw that trick with the rope and a hammer but didn't thought of this today lol.

 

I'll take better pictures in the daylight. Couldn't get any good ones

 

Unless it's the RC

 

Or a prerunner

 

I'll search it out. I assume so no one steals the mat right? Not a bad idea being the #1 selling midsize truck lol there's a billion of them up here in mass.

 

That's why I added a lock on the tailgate for sure !

 

The bed mat still lifts right out with the tailgate locked...

 

Yes it just makes it more difficult for a thief to snatch it.

 

lol ... they steal tailgates fyi, but icwutimissed'nwutudidthere

 

My Dad came up to visit from Georgia, so the two of us are taking on the task of taking the rust off the hitch and rear bumper. Didn't realize the bumper came off with the hitch. Crazy how they will replace the frame and leave a rusty ass hitch on a truck. Breaker bar came in handy today and a lot of PB Blaster!


Tomorrow POR-15.

 

Sub'd for outcome pic !

 

And an angler grinder!

 

Got some dirt on it

 

Impromptu got an angle grinder today on sale at Lowes, also had some gift cards and my dad suggested a flapper wheel would get rust flakes off. I love an excuse to get new tools. I feel like I'll be needing to weld something soon!
