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

Gotta Love the Access Cab, Very Nice!!!

 

Nice setup

 

Just remove the two little rubber pads in the center console. Underneath are four bolts total, 12mm IIRC. After taking those out, it just comes right off.

I also removed the metal bracket that's under there. Then just replace the two metal bracket bolts into the truck body and reattach the metal bracket to the center console. That way you can store it and keep all the hardware together for later if wanting to go back to stock.

You'll have a hole left over, that's where the plywood with carpeting came in to cover it and keep it looking factory in a way.

 

Twin Lakes, up the Mount Elbert trailhead forest road. Good spots, free camping areas with fire pits. Sits up on the hill overlooking the Twin Lakes.

 

Here ya go.

 

Some more interior mods. Plastidipped the trim around shifter. Makes my new knob pop out more. And added a TRD logo on glove box.

 

Flowmaster Delta 50 installed. I enjoy how it sounds. Now I just gotta get my spacer and header installed

 

Got my bed liner and promptly trimmed and installed. No more sliding strollers!! Thanks @eccracer104 !

 

I dont follow.... what do you mean bedliner promply trimmed?

 

I think he installed a rubber matt

 

I totally didnt notice it. Blended right in. But bedliner through me off too!

 

Lol yeah it only came in long bed size so had to trim for my shorty. Fortunately it had the cut line already marked so piece of cake

 

Did a thing today... C’mon all you anti-raptor style lightning trolls, have at it.

I like it though. Makes it more of my own.

 

Definitely looks much better painted ..

Great

 

Oh my god that’s the worst thing ever!! Just kidding looks good with the grill!

 

Installed!


Quite a bit more rigid than OEM.

 

I think I’m going to buy one of these. Not worth much in terms of protection but a fun cheap mod to paint and make the truck look a little nicer. You still like yours?

 

Over the last few days I changed out my headlights for some slightly used OEM ones that I scored for $50 before I even had the truck, changed the spark plugs, and swapped both front hubs out. Started Friday after work and just finished up. Long story short, messed up the o-ring for the passenger hub so had to order a new one and it came in today. Glad to have it back on the road.

 

I love mine. I think you're going to be surprised with the quality. yeah looks good but it's beefy.

 

Part 2 of what I did today.

Drilled holes and fit the grommets in for my aux fuse panel. After a little reading, I've decided to get a 12v 100 amp solenoid to run after the 100amp fuse, with a wire run to the add a fuse I've got plugged into the oem oem fog light socket.

That socket is hot with ignition, so it'll send that spark to the solenoid and send power to the aux fuse box.

I'm not using it for any heavy duty lights, or stuff of that nature. It's mostly going to be for 12v accessories.

Currently have some led strip lights, raptor lights. I'm going to add a USB charging plug, heated seats, power locks, and eventually an amp.
