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

I just started a long term review here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/kenwood-ddx9904s-review.567871/

 

Bummer you bought your light already. I'm getting ready to sell my light and bamf light bar mount. Light sits about here but can be adjusted vertically.

 

I'd go with a U-Bolt flip. You'll have it all apart already, and it really cleans up the rear IMHO.

I went with the same lift! Loving the ride. I admittedly stare at the rear reservoirs every time I walk up to my truck...

 

Nice work!!

 

Thanks!

 

Ordered the LED Ultimate Map Light for Meso. Cleaning and reorganizing Garage to maybe get the Taco inside this winter. Don't know it that will happen but will a lot more room to work and it and Wife's Mini. Found parts and pieces from 86 S15 Jimmy, 83 Fire Bird, Ford Exploder, Ford Expedition, 02 Taco, Wife's Mini and Pieces off my TRD Sport. 2 old racing trophies and a Hilborn Fuel injection Manifold for 100 Offy ($$$$) plus normal house hold paint, lumber, dry wall and electrical and plumbing. Big Garage sale coming. Amazing what 30 years in one house can collect. With 3 teenage Grandkids living with us need the room for their stuff amd probably a Gen. 1 Taco for oldest grandson.

 

Mine is Relentless Fab. It has a little of the snowplow look you describe, but not overly so, in my opinion. I think I have diminished that look with the silver powder coating. At least, that's what I was going for. If you eliminate the upper tubes it would look even more streamlined. That was my initial intention, but eventually went with the protective tubing. Glad I did. Make great handholds, as well, when in tight quarters, and you have to walk around the truck.

 

Just slapped on some AVS vent visors. Some minor rubbing on the front windows,hope it goes away after leaving the windows up for 24 hours.

 

I have those same ones, and I haven't had that issue, so hopefully it will go away for you also!

 

How long have you had them on your truck,and have they held up well?

 

6-7 Months. yea. I've driven through almost all kind of weather, mostly on road, with some mild off-road. no problems yet. They stay put, and no cracks or anything. Very happy with them so far, Especially at a little more than half the cost of the weathertechs.

 

With the u-bolt flip kit I wont be able to use the stock bump stop right?
If so, can you recommend a u-bolt flip kit and bump stops that would work for that kit?

 

I went with All-Pro's flip kit, and Wheelers Super Bumps. Quick shipping and super easy install. I recommend them both.

Same here.

 

What did you set the 5100's at? Did you notice a new stance/height of the vehicle after you installed those KO2's?

 

So just an update and I have to tell someone?
The wife gets sick of hearing about it.
The guy who did my frame (Jim) at Handys in St Albans VT did a fn awesome job for me and after a few days of use it just gets better.
Exposed bolt threads coated with grease. Anything mating to another part has grease unless torques are necessary.
No rattles drives like the 17 I had for a loaner. With the exception of my dirty tracs which are a little noisy.
Door hinges greased, bushings well greased with suppiled supper lube.
Gotta say I was stressing over the frame swap!!!
Who wouldn’t it’s like major surgery on a loved one!
It’s been absolutely painless and they did a awesome job as of now!

Also the hook I acquired was from a 80’s land cruiser?
He left the stock tie down in the extra cab if I wanted to switch them. He is a sub for the dealer gets a flat rate. Said he didn’t have to torch anything an had extra time for extras.
How cool sorry if I am gloating but I am so happy my baby is back and is more awesome than before!

 

I drilled and backed out a bolt I snapped when installing my antenna mount. Went way better and faster than I planned. (Gold bolt is the replacement) Need to get a washer for it now.

 

Do I need extended brake lines for both front and rear?

 

Doubtful. What are you doing?
