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

Crikey! Scares me to think how fast our double driveshafts are turning at that speed.

 

I got some strange noises up front. Front end parts are all tight so I’m hoping for the best

 

Just built and installed some inner splash guards. They work great keeping the Mudd and salt off the frame. It uses all factory mounting location. It even makes going through standing water alot more quite. Let me know what you guys think.

 

Well after spending a couple of hours troubleshooting and swapped out ballasts from passenger to driver side and vice versa..shit just started to work. Man, that sucks but at least it's working. Now I'm wondering how long is this going to last before something stops working again.

 

Nice job. You have everything I want in one neat unit.

 

I did mines a couple months back, but did it with the Hilux switch. I'm hardly using the 4x4 switch at night, but Saturday night it came in handy when I got stuck in a grass parking lot. Anyways, good job. The Tacoma's really should have come with this stock.

 

Whatcha gonna do with the hidden winch bumper? US Offroad, right?

 

Any info on how to do this mod? Looks good!

 

2nd gens to the rescue on this one. One was used as an anchor and one winched the 4runner back up.

@atthehelm bedside reinforcements. Picked up after the powder coat was done, installed shortly after. Great design, all hardware included.

 

Here we go

 

Particularly for the Hilux switch mod, you're going to need a machined ring. Contact kgarrett11 for the purchase of the ring.
Check out this thread:
https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/machined-ring-for-hilux-lighted-4x4-switch.451738/
It has the info for the ring, a link for the switch itself, and a link for the install.

This is just one way to do it, but I really dig the Hilux switch.
The Hilux switch I believe is stock Blue LED, but I think you can get that changed out for white.

 

I like that there's a bottle opener on yours.

 

Santa delivered more goodies...



Now I need to fab a mount.

 

Working on making a custom “soft topper” with just a canvas and some fasteners. The Duct tape isn’t permanent! Next step is getting a better vinyl coated tarp along with some rubber gaskets to make it weather proof.

 

Yes, US Offroad. Sold it to a member here on TW.

 

Drove past it sitting at the body shop on the way to and from work....

 

In case anyone is wondering what KB Voodoo's reversible crossbars look like on a truck with a Bestop:

Looking good!! @Musubi3

 

Have an ARB. Glad I do and not a bull bar (which I was considering about a year prior)
