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

Pretty sure it’s most all states. VA just tends to be pretty strict on most street laws, especially window tint. Happy to be in CO where just about everyone rolls with dark tint due to all the sun and reflection off snow. That is when we actually get snow....

 

Ha I know Co I was in the springs for a couple of years

 

Maybe somebody can chime in. I'm not sure how the seize compound the the plug threads affects the 02 sensor.

 

I highly doubt it. Put it on the threads only nowhere else you be fine. Plus if you ever swapped out a 02 sensor it comes with anti-seize to install it. Kind of throws that theory out. Just don't put on the actual sniffer of the sensor.

 

Great video as always! Here's a write up I did for installing a bed extender with bed stiffiners. Also a funny side note, I think we have the same bed extender haha

 

Reception is good but been mostly in town driving so hard to tell yet if I get any better reception or not but so far no complaints

 

After a quick trip to the carwash

Before


After

 

Working on a new project. Not going to let the cat out of the bag yet. Some will think it’s a bit over board when done, but this is going to solve a slight inconvenience of mine. Besides I’m a tinker and like to do mods that have not been thought of. Stay tuned.

 

Same here. I need to know.

 

Time to throw those away and get some Weather Techs or Huskys.

 

I’m just waiting on a few more parts to come in tomorrow and I should have it finished and installed by Friday. Let’s just say only those with the 4.0 will appreciate it. Maybe this is the start of a new topic called, “Guess This Mod”.

Here we go bud

 

Before and after. 5100’s to 5160’a




Quick test out front and have plenty of wiggle room and bumps will hit about 1” before the shocks bottom out.

 

Sweet, very nice! I'll link this in the video description.

 

Link?

 

Looks to me like he has made a cutout for the airbox. I’m assuming he’s going to cut some of the top of the airbox, using the polycarbonate as a window to view the air filter??
My guess.

Not sure what the LEDs are for though.

 

Husky for sure. I'm not impressed with Weathertech

 

Curious why not...I have loved my WTs

 

Just finished installing my Power Pop N Lock, and followed this thread that @vssman found for me:

https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/pop-and-lock-pl8521-power-tailgate-install-2012-tacoma.214928/

Followed it step by step, did exactly as the OP did, and worked correctly the first time (no need to reverse the plugs at the actuator to correct it).

Couldn't really take pics under the truck, of the wiring... all dirty and shit constantly falling on my face, so all I have are these two, one of the actuator and one of where I tapped into the wires.

 

If you have any kind of cover, I'd still recommend doing it. If not then yeah, a must if/when you have a cover/shell.
