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

beauty, thanks!
separate note, what part of ontario you from?

 

I don't think tranny is part of the 30k service. Spark plugs are though. And greasing the driveshaft.

Rear diff and transfer case are simple and have room to work. Front diff is a bit harder to get to... Skid has to come off and I couldn't get the impact gun up there, but my drain/fill plugs weren't rusted and they were easy to get off with a 10mm hex socket.

I've heard the spark plugs are fairly easy, just time consuming... 2 hour'ish job. I'll be tackling that sometime this week/weekend.

Great how-to posts on TacomaWorld for all the 30k services too!

Diffs and t-case are recommended at 30k and I think 100k on tranny.

30k seems like a lot on the diff fluid though... Just did mine today at 30,500 and they were both dark. Filled them with Mobil 1 Synthetic and may check them at 55k instead of 60k.

 

Spark plugs aren't bad Pass side iscake and you just have to work around some hoses on the drivers side. Go ahead and replace the pcv valve while your doing the plugs on the drivers side as it's rt there and only like $6 from the dealer

 

We're turd badge buddies!

 

Yours might be the first I've seen mounted on the passenger side.

 

Thanks!

Hamilton.

 

Yep, saw everyone else went driver side but I like the way the logo flows with the grill side. Running it on that side until I get some mesh to make a grill! Slowly moving away from the blacked out everything and needed some color. I really love that hood vinyl you have now and want something similar for my bedside vinyl instead of the matte black TRD I have now.

 

I love browsing the products box for new ideas but what the hell have y'all been up to?

 

Gotta be @boogie3478

 

My TRD is mounted on the Passenger side too

 

nice looking truck! did you color match your lower valence? if so, which paint did you go with? looks good

 

haha i thought the same thing when i saw those handcuffs down there..

 

thanks to @mattgecko for this cool LED lights. easy mod to tackle. now I'm thinking to buy the engine bay LED lights.

 

Take a look at the pictures on my media page and you can see the slant.

 

my mom lives in Rockton if you ever go towards Cambridge haha.

 

Do it! They are awesome and very easy to install (toughest part is fishing the wires through the hood)

 

now that's a convincing photo. well done sir and the red engine cover.

 

Installed my sliders, went wheeling to test them!

 

She's real nice! I guess I probably shouldn't assume gender though....

 

Made some progress on the aux fuse panel.
