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

Too bad you sold your red one, but black always looks great. Good luck with it.

 

Ordered a new cabin filter and front diff seal.

I quick detailed it today. I washed and waxed it last weekend with some new products. Stripped all the wax off and I gave Chemical Guys Butter Wax a try and I must say Im super happy with it. I gave it a quick wipe down with some Griot's Speedshine today and the wax underneath looks great.

I scrubbed the floor mats today and treated them with some 303 Fabric Guard.

I also scrubbed the carpets and seat covers.

I started at the leaky diff seal for about 2 minutes and got mad at it.

 

decided to make new mounts for my TREDs. i didnt like how the factory mount only would work for 2 treds. so made this.

started with some plate and some long stainless bolts.


weld up the bolts


one of the bolts i did something different, i cut up a bolt lock (that uses your factory keys) and welded it to a bolt (needed it longer) so now you can just lock it.


and locked


and all done

 

This is where I mounted mine.

 

Wrapping my grill today with carbon fiber

 

Maybe i should buy a craigs list chrome one and wrap it lol... since mine was chemically destroyed.

 

@loginfailed was that you with the center of grill? If so fuck it ill take it

 

I'm too old I don't remember a lot of things. What're we talking about? LOL

Made my Taco work!
We took our two horses to Massasoit state park to ride!
With 311,000+ miles she pulled the horses and trailer with no problem!

 

Noice! First mod: plasti-dip that effing bumper!

 

Thank you for showing me the error of my ways.

 

No no, vinyl wrap!! @Justanotherhemi wrapped his black and it looks GOOD.

 

Just so long as that chrome disappears.

 

Put a fucking bosch oil filter on until I got the case of oems ordered online. Figured the crap filter could make it a few thousand miles. Shoulda swapped it out when they came. POS Bosch started leaking somehow. Seal matched, was part number for Tacomas and was still tight. Thinking the seal failed as it was really hard and crispy when I pulled the filter. It was not overtightened either. Sacrificed a big towel to sponge bathe the oil off the bottom of truck all the way back down passenger side. Luckily it happened close to house and "only" lost half a quart while driving. Fuck Bosch!
