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

Got a 89 chevy s10 blazer tank, put it where the spare was. Had to cut the fender. Facebook DIY modified Tacoma where I posted the write up....

 

Some porn for those willing, about 500 total investment

 

Did you beef up rear suspension at all? Also, what's the estimated new range?

 

Stock suspension, thats my next upgrade but I'm holding about 45 gallons. I can drive 8 hours of continuous driving on the highway going about 85 miles an hour.... transfer fuel while driving and it takes about 15-25 minutes total fuel transfer it's using the fuel pump that came with the tank.

It's about 120 to fill up unleaded.

 

Damn.. thats nuts.

 

Yea.... it was like a 15 hour job but man its worth it.... I get no dash light, no bs from the transfer and it's cheap just alot of work. Cutting the fender was hard bc its my baby lol.

Do it man.... I was going to put the fill on the inside but if I'm loaded I can fill up that's why I put it on the outside. That long range travel tank is to expensive and some other people have to get into their bed to fill.

 

New plumbing. Still need to hook up the rear diff air line to the selenoid and extend the harness a bit.

 

Got tired of the front bumper rattling around and not being very tight. Popped off the lower bumper brackets from the rivets and replaced with #14 self tapping screws and then used stainless hardware in place of the the plastic tabs on the secure points for the bumper. Doesn’t move now. Also more prep for the Satoshi Grill, painted the core support area and dropped off the mesh at the powder coater.

 

Everyone knows it should say UK, GO CATS

 

I like the lock wire holding it on there lol

 

Not really sure if it counts.. But got my new snatch strap on sale from Custom Splice today. Along with their chafe guard cause it was cheap
Coincided nicely with the monthly winch exercising.


My 'tree saver' did its job

 

In a couple weeks you’ll know what that tag is.

 

Not much this week have replace the glass in the oven door, $126, Microwave blue, new $250 or so.

 

I would be fired from the EPA with that thing.

 

@crashnburn80 showed me his. I shortly after bought them too. They are awesome for parking lot safety. Definitely get peoples attention!

 

Unless a qualified assistant is present.

 

Anzo Halos

 

Hell yea !!!!

 

We shall see.

 

Installed a new compass and temper gauge on my 08 TRD tTacoma
