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

I'll try a sound clip when my full exhaust is complete. It will be epic with a tuned y-pipe and 3"!

 

Awesome, cant wait to see pics and hear about what issues you had and how you got around them

 

Did you transfer the eyelet from the stock leaf pack?

 

Yep

 

^Maybe add another eyelet at the forward leaf clamp? Use a large rubber-lined P-clamp from the auto parts store.

Both are cosmetic. Your truck will probably cost less to fix than her TL. Not sure if that's more or less comforting for you.

 

I'm not worried about my truck it's a truck most will buff off, more worried about how much cash I'm going to end up giving her for hers lol

 

^Probably about $1000 if not much additional damage underneath the bumper cover.

 

Ok debating upon pulling the trigger. Are these good? Anyone know of a better supplier?
Been looking to do this since I got the taco.

 

I got those ,I think they are good quality & helps smooth out bumps,this is one of the better mods I’ve done!

 

Pretty slick once installed, but getting them in there was a PITA! Can’t wait to hear it once you have the rest of it completed!

That will be a long post!

 

did this yesterday, but installed fiberglass and had my new tires(general tire x3) mounted to my newly powdercoated rims

 

Repainted my rusty ass sliders and front skid. I also touched up the rock rash on my wheels and little portions of my bumpers that needed it.

 

Last weekend I made further progress on my pinstripe mod. As much as I like to use my truck off road I do like it to clean up nice for the street too.

I buff all my pinstripes with Meguiars Scratch X 2.0, this is supposed to be a spot treatment for bad scratches but I find myself buffing almost the whole truck with it. It is a great product for hiding scratches. It is temporary like a wax, but does a great job with low effort.

I should have taken pre-scratch removal photos as it had some pretty good ones.


Coverage is pretty good, I think few would complain about the finish quality.


But if you look exceptionally closely at just the right angles, you can still find the worst ones.


After buffing this with some Meguiars gold wax, these scratches are virtually indistinguishable.

 

Why not both? haha

 

Took the family camping for the weekend to Hiawassee, VA and in turn did the "get it dirty" mod riding the fire and access roads. It's my favorite mod so far!

 

Thanks!! It’s pretty cheap and changes the look of the vehicle alot

 

Installed new headlights

 

This is goals

 

Used it to pick up a vintage Shasta for my wife's birthday!

 

Nice! Love to see stuff done a little differently... Red rims look so different!

Really almost everyone on here has nice mods on their trucks, in the internet world it can get boring quick... Same BHLM, same SCS gunmetal rims, same roof Racks, etc... I know they all look great but on TW it all starts to blend, so something different, be it eye popping or something more subtle, always makes me happy.
