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

The magnetic tray not as issue for me. I have my own tray that I use.

 

I wouldn’t let that deter you. In fact, if I could do it again I would order it without one and just bring out the free Harbor Freight magnetic tray and plop it down when I needed it. I rarely use the tray and it does not fit perfect. Plus the magnet is not super strong.

 

Actually I believe the grills are slightly different in the way they mount. If you look at the two versions the older will not fit on the 12-15 grill. Probably some slight changes in the facelift.

 

huh... I didnt realize that

 

Sorry, best I can do for now, been very busy.

 

Installed some BD S2 pros, BD SAE fogs, fj steelies, and bfg ko2s

 

That looks surprisingly good with the steel wheels! I almost like those more than the alloys I’m running.

 

New wheel bearings, Callahan rotors and new pads with hardware and double chatter springs. Old bearings were very noisy and I had brake fade, which I've read on here could be caused by worn bearings. My rotors were warped and the pads were wearing funny.

Edit: yes I had jackstands under the truck.

 

How hard were the bearings to replace?

 

Paid it off!!!!!!

 

You actually had to work to avoid New Mexico!

 

LOL!!

 

They were easy. I replaced the whole hub and I have a pre runner. Doing the whole hub it was 4 bolt that hold it on and I didn't have a axle to mess with.

 

Finally pulled the trigger on my Prinsu Toprac!

 

I just changed out my spark plugs too! By chance, did your truck not start the first couple times immediately after replacing the spark plugs? Cause mine didn't and I almost sharted my pants. I thought I broke something

 

The engine usually doesn’t stay on the first time you turn the key, if you removed the negative terminal

 

Anyone running a power tank set up?

 

Want to wash mine but the weather isn’t cooperating

 

I made a version2 of the carling switch panel that I designed up the other day. I wasn’t entirely satisfied with the amount of mounting surface the first one had so designed the V2 with more surface area. Turned out great and does the job just right.

I just did mine in my driveway last week. 154k on the truck and I was able to do each side in about 1.5 hours, including fussing with a few stubborn bolts. keeping the axle perfectly level (use a jack under the control arm) helps it free up when pounding on the stub. 2 lb hammer smacks to a pointed bolt in the center of the axle freed the axles pretty easily.
