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

or for those with weak back ends.....don't skimp on squats

 

Welcome back. Saw you were banned for a bit.

 

Of course! You're free to use any pictures I post as outro clip images.

 

Ha ha yeah I was placed in solitary confinement for a few weeks.

 

Thanks man! Just wanted to double check.

 

Did you run through the 3rd gen forum naked again?

 

Allegedly ...

 

Installed sos sliders an painted skid plates ran out of time for install was humid paint didn’t dry.

 

Mines bent to shit, order placed.

 

Had a Happy 100k Party.

Out with the old..




In with the new.



After the diff and Tcase flush I had time to bang out an idea I had for a couple months now. Long story short winching at night can be tough, most of the time you light up the recovery but what about the winch. I’ve had scenarios I wish I could see the winch better at night so I added a winch light. Will help seeing the line spool in evenly, make sure you don’t unspool too much, see the clutch lever, etc.. I had all material laying around so it was like a free mod.

If wasn't for trucks we wouldn't wouldn't have tailgates!

 

Finally put my load bars on my Leer 180 Shell.
Next is a truck wash

 

Yea the factory bracket is garbage. You will be very happy with this for a replacement.

 

Call me crazy, but when I really look at the back of my truck, its the first thing i notice. Even if it wasn't bent I still wouldn't like the way it looks.

 

TW has ruined my life. Just ordered new exhaust. Although there is a nice hole forming in my muffler right now and it needs to be replaced anyway.

 

@Chux The winch line spool light is a great idea. I am going to do that mod to my Jeep winch.

 

Always upgrade

Thanx

 

Yea me too, This morning I took the new bracket off and sprayed it with some rattle can bed liner and reinstalled it. Now U can not even see it

 

I think Ill steal that idea and do it before i even install it.

 

The spray bed liner holds up a lot better than regular paint and it dries faster. I am going to remove my NFab front light bar this summer an spray it a couple of times.
