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

I had a friend help me with mine. Scuffed up the 'chrome' a tiny bit but not 100% necessary in my opinion.

Used 2/1 primer paint from rustoleum

 

Okay thanks man so it's pretty easy to do?

 

Is there a link or a write up on this mod

 

Longbed mod!

Installed my Headstrong 3 leaf AAL! Check my build out for pics

 

Go swim after your boat

 

I created a thread in “gen 2 mods” under “onboard water”. I’ll be updating that in a few days with the completed system.

Getting ready to set up an in-line filter next. Looks like I can filter going in and out if I figured it out correctly. Overkill but I fail this water setup if my wife tastes hose water.

 

I’m looking to do it under our micro camper for additional water storage for showers and cooking. May still need a couple of jerry cans for a week but this would really help clean things up a bit

 

I dont want a long bed at all

Thx

 

long beds are so 1980's. Our shorties can haul anything

 

Here is an honest question. Are bed stiffeners a thing? Has anyone seen the bed sides flex? Even on short beds?

Yep! There are plenty of options.

 

Okay, thanks for the advertisements, I just have never seen anything that indicates flex, and have I ever seen photo's of the problem.

 

Throw it in reverse and hit the gas!

 

Start modding it?

 

i installed them and my bed was not straight on the driver side, passenger side was good to go

 

That depends. Any areas YOU think could use an upgrade?

I think it really depends on how your truck is loaded. I have had a shell on mine since it was a month old and have the cracking in the bedside supports so I installed the TC stiffeners. If you don't have something like a shell or bed rail bars, you probably won't see anything.
