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

I put holes in my fender.

 

Ordered a Leer 100XR. Should be on in about 2 weeks.

 

Took my wife shopping

 

Put the skid plate on today. Love the look.

After

 

Prada farm store? Looks like it's in BFE!

 

Yes sir! Ain't much out here but dust!



Another pic just for fun. Heading to big bend in the mornin for a couple days.

​

 

Today finished making my bed rack them primed and painted it

 

Can you post a close up? Like where follows the body line?

 

Sure, it's not perfect, but it works.

 

I Installed K&N air filter, changed the oil and wired up my overhead dvd monitor.

 

Yea I get that, when I buy one I think I might line outside edge with some strip foam? Just to hide it better

 

That would be a lot of work, and up to the user/installer. I found no need. It's just an air-gap of the plastic snorkel housing and fender, no noise/vibrations and only noticed within 5 feet if you're looking for the fitment.

 

You think so?

 

It's an aesthetic thing. It is 100% sealed and tight, if you want it to have a tighter fit then you can do other things like body filler to expand the fender or rubberized insulation to take up the gap, but it's a 3.5"x2" oval (eye-balled) that is the tube from the snorkel housing to the intake-snorkel tube. It's completely sealed but the fender gap isn't perfect. You really won't notice, imho, unless you're looking for it. I have tree/rock dents, brush scrapes and so on so it looks good to me.

 

SP or NP? I've spent very little time in the NP but have camped & off road all over the SP for about 9 days total.

 

What’s the deal with that breather?

 

Yea I know I’m just being picking and i just meant like in the outer edge but when I get one I’ll experiment with it

 

From what I understand, the ARB fills the lines in the fender better, but it's still not perfect. I opted for the cheaper, directly made one.

 

Not sure what you mean, but assuming you aren't familiar with that mod.... Apparently our trucks come with extended breathers on the front diff from the factory, but not on the rear for some reason. I followed this thread:

Theres a ton of info about it in there if you read through

 

I ended up using this to hide the line. Works well. Pain to get it pinched in while tightening though
