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

With as long as my woman stays in the mall it’s a wonder I remember anything.

 

Okay, I just installed the Subaru tweeters and word of warning for us 2nd gen owners, these are “not plug and play” as I was lead to believe. They may be for 3rd gen but not us. They still work great and sound amazing but I could not plug into the four prong connector and simply had to splice into the black and red wire and use blade connector. Still a very easy install and as I stated they sound amazing. So much so that I had to reduce the highs setting to a little past mid line.

 

What type of cap is on the back? Looks good!

 

Took it wheeling in this beautiful spring weather.

 

spending easter weekend at the beach

 

Here is the truck with the Mud Claw 285/70x17

 

Replaced my steering rack bushings. Alignment tech is whacking away as I type this.

 

Did you replace them with poly bushings? How long did It take you?

 

Had a bit of brake shudder for a few months now. I'm not much of a player on turning rotors as it just makes them a hair thinner....which can lead to them warping again.

Through on some new ones. The Platinum line has a nice painted hat. We'll see how long that lasts. 2 year replacement warranty if they warp.

While I had it all apart I cleaned all the pins, springs and shims. Pads looked great, so I just scuffed them up a little.

She stops so smooth now.

Drove it.

In the rain. Always.

 

Got the sliders welding on. Including labor project cost me $282 not counting primer and spray on bed liner.

 

Poly yes. Ended up taking it to my mechanic as I couldn't figure out how to separate the steering shaft and was frustrated by the long bolt situation. It took 3 guys 2.5 hours working from a loft .

 

Damn. Well it's done and that's what counts! I want to do the same. You notice any changes in the steering.. tighter, more responsive?

 

Picked up some 17' black steelies. Probably picking a set of 255/75/17 MT's this week.

 

Debadged the trunk and took off the side stickers. Finally installed the license plate relo kit from @ACEkraut! Loving how the front end opens up more..now time to save for that stealth @CaliRaisedLed bumper bar.

 

Installed a cat back today. Here's the stock exhaust that I ripped out...

 

Threw in some tuffskinz pads. Only took 10 minutes and 4 beers

 

Your Taco has a trunk ?

 

They look great
