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

Received my PB jerry can mount... now just need to plan a trip where I'd actually need 10 gallons of extra fuel!

 

Out of the mods that’s the one I get asked about the most. Most people think it’s a exhaust pipe.

 

Water evaporates with heat...

Check the water pump for weeping or leaking.

 

What brand of snorkel ia that? Thank you

 

Funny all the little "details" you learn about when "upgrading" you Taco-. Such as longer rear shocks, alignments, to name a few. Nothing is as easy as bolting it on.... LOL. Now Im facing a drive shaft boot replacement over a 1/4" slice on the boot, that spewed grease all over the inside of the passenger wheel well. LOL Oh the humanity....

 

Washed and waxed and hit the trim pieces to get them black again. Looks great but it's probably already dirty since I went to sleep last night and wasn't constantly washing it.

Also applied yellow vinyl to my lightbar to reduce white chrome nonsense upfront. I need to retrofit and black the headlights further but money. Removed bedside stickers and will eventually debadge tailgate and stick on my new bedside decals and tailgate decals.

 

Well, I dove in a bought this new wax for the taco.


It is supposedly hydrophobic. It supposed to make the water droplets just roll off like little ball bearings. It doesnt. Its a little better than standard wax, but nothing to run to the store over.
So thats my user experience, and my limited promo of this product.
Take from it what you want. It works, but not like the commercials of the sheeting water just falling off the car, leaving the car still dry to the touch.

 

I took out the FOR SALE sign ! I was selling it because of three kids in college . I changed my mind , almost paid it off and am now looking for mods to spend money on !

 

It's a Hilux 167 with an enginaire pre cleaner
Search snorkel on a budget on the site search. @inesshell has a very good write up that I followed.

 

I dechromed some more trim pieces

 

This came in today! Going to replace my plate with it, so there isn't 2 empty holes and move my plate down with a relocate bracket from @ACEkraut!

 

Your alignment cam tab looks flattened.

 

I changed the cabin filter which was nasty hadn't been more then 6 months, greased the drive and propeller shaft and also did this! Thanks again @ChadsPride!

 

Ok so I tapped a piece of flat bar stock. I tapped it to line up with the holes with the All Pro Rack mounting holes.I recently got a bed rail from another member. Thanks @Key-Rei . I than proceeded to mount one bed rail to the All Pro rack to the the other bed rail.To Clarify the set up is bedrail-All Prorack-to bed rail.

 

Got my ridge grapplers on and gave it a good wash

 

Ive been waiting on my TW sticker too

 

Sexy!!! Getting ready to buy a set of these myself.

 

absolutely love them! much better than the pro comp Mt's I had, couldn't have a conversation at 70 without yelling

 

Great looking wheels, love the bronze/silver combo.
