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

Got these bad boys in the mail today! Gonna fab up a way to mount em up this weekend using some steel flatbar and angle.

 

That's pretty extreme if those are mud flaps!

 

Youve got good eyes bud! Theyre the same style mud flaps that come on fj40s

 

​

 

I cant wait to see how they look!! Totally stoked

 

Mad respect brother!

I can't either

 

I have a pair of originals here that are black with white but they are so old they are cracking and dry rotting. Looking forward to seeing how yours look.

 

Yeah the paint on these are also a little crispy, but the seller i got them from mentioned that in the description. He said they were new old stock. He also had some ones with white lettering like you mentioned, but when i saw the yellow i knew that was what i wanted. Ill definitely post up some pics when i figure out how to mount them up!

 

I really hope they really are NOS and not the commonly available reproductions that are on the market.

 

Started sorting out the grounds for my dual battery setup. Ive got the body ground sorted out but I need to find a good chassis ground on the passenger side of the engine bay.

I want to keep the ground runs as short as possible and keep from modifying the OEM battery terminals. I could just run a ground from the house battery across the firewall over to the OEM battery terminals but I REALLY want to avoid this because I already plan to have 1/0 positive wire across the fire wall.

Any thoughts ?

Look up Optimum No Rinse, Itll be your best friend.

 

These showed up today, got the $100 rebate, no sales tax (sales tax here is 10.1%, that's a huge deal) and free mount and balance on 265/70/17 ko2s through 4 Wheel Parts, get em installed on the 2nd. The bottom box is an Fn wheel, that'll be the spare.

 

Used it as a table to knock the blanks out of the strips of ammo I had to put some real bullets into the links

 

Wired the solenoid pack,clocked the engagement lever, and mounted the winch. Light bar is next.

 

Installed RCI bed rack. This thing is pretty tits.

 

Hit a milestone today. The taco is officially broken in!

 

I have 2k more miles until I hit my 100k. I hope that I don't miss it.

 

How much did they set you back

How’d the silicone work out?

Mines did the same thing, I did the blow dryer method as well, and it worked, I had extra rubber sealant so I filled in gaps where I thought could be a leak, I just did mines earlier tonight hoping it works out, I hate to reopen it again

 

I’m liking your hidden winch mount, wat site and brand u got bro? Looking to put one myself
