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

If you look you could find a dealer that’ll let one go for invoice or back of invoice at the right time of the month.

 

I really need to figure out how to access the service history of the truck because I'm SURE that I've had some of that done already, like a new drive belt. Also had the transmission fluid changed, but can't remember if I've done the others...

 

You can check the CarFax service report

 

What kind of headlights are those? They're dope!

 

This showed up today

 

Actually, I found the Toyota owners page with the service history on it. It's had both the plugs and coolant changed, so I'm good!

 

Good catch!
have it handy for the next service on your phone lol make them eat their words.

I would still pop the hood to inspect the belt though, ya never know.

 

For once I didnt do anything but drive it. But I did introduce two guys on the job to tw. Both really responded eagerly. 1st, and 2nd gen owners.

 

The original trailer was ~750 empty, but i have added some steel to the frame and heavier tires so im not sure what it is now. By the time i get the cooler loaded and all my gear in there the tongue weight is pretty heavy. I can still lift it and move it by hand in short distances. When i first got the trailer i man handled the shit out of it! Just grabbed the tongue and walked it where ever i needed to.

I bought a custom length 3500lb axle for mine, i dont think it will ever be that heavy but the axle without brake hubs was ~$130. But now i wish i would have got the brakes. They come in handy when you are going down hills for sure!

 

It's not really a LOL situation, since those services were recommended based strictly on Mileage, and I had them originally done where I bought the truck which was not my local dealer at the time. And I know the belt is less then 5 years old, since I HAVE had that replaced when the original came apart at about 125K...

 

One of the things I said to the girl that hit me was "yelp I was wanting a new bumper"

I didn't post the picture but the Nissan's drivers side trunk lid is crumbled up about 1.5 inches, You are right it's 95% cosmetic damage on the Tacoma, with the stock skid plate bent slightly. It did it's job.

 

I had pulled in behind the Nissan and we were both stopped when she reversed QUICKLY into me trying to get a parking spot she had driven by.

 

Paint scratches , MINOR cuts in the bumper cover and bent the stock skid plate slightly. At the speed she back into me I'm happy how well the truck took it.

 

Im about to add the same tank to my set up..not a hater or busting on ya but usually when running any gas (as in air or?) the line outa the tank to your service is run on the highest opening , that way any water, dirt etc has less chance of being picked up in the stream outa the tank...granted not an issue here, just a observation, was for many years a utility plant, wayer plant guy....

 

what do you think of that drawer setup?

 

Finally got the icon add a leaf put on..no more squat

 

But but the Carolina squat look

 

Installed my Backrack headache rack with permanent locktite so some crackhead doesn't walk off with it, and did the sticker delete mod to it.

Also installed my @mesojdm red map lights. Had to remove the reflector for the harness to fit in the small space. Already installed the white dome light a while back. Top notch products in my opinion.

 

Ordered a set of spark plugs and a Grid It for the center console lid.
