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

Labels and packaging are easily faked to be like the real deal. Is it serialized anywhere with anything unique? "4 wheel parts hardware" could easily be an impersonator trying to sound like the name of a real company. Lots of ripoff 3P resellers on Amazon dint care about false advertising and come and go with no consequence. Most customers dont even know they've been had.

 

Good find on the ARB bumper and looks awesome on your truck.

 

The bumper itself has the ARB logo made into the lower right hand side. If its a knock off then they did a great job with the finish and precision around each piece. And put a lot of work into copying the exact design of ARB on the bumper itself and the parts bag and box. I just registered it with ARB. Pretty sure it is real.

 

My adventure over the last few days was fitting an 06 Tundra exhaust to my 09 Taco
All this started because I got the URD y-pipe and not having the cats made the exhaust way to loud over 2.5k with the minimal muffler I had before. This was sitting in my barn, so I figured why not?
Fit like a charm! Relocated a couple hangers on the pipes, the used my old muffler as a 2.25" to 2.5" adapter to the tundra exhaust, and viola! Nice shiny dual chrome tips for me to smash on rocks... And of course now I need a new place to mount my spare...

 

Got these on then went to Colorado

 

What brand are those I like um, bolt on?

 

Hefty Fabworks, they are bolt on.

 

Cool never heard of them website looks like quality stuff

 

I’m not sure if Amazon does it on purpose or if someone screws up on the pricing, but they seem to have really low prices at times.

 

Lol, someone found a video of you @Tacomania

 

Simple Sleeping Platform Mod part way complete....going to decide on padding before carpeting after we test it out on this weekend roadtrip...Quoted post is from Simple Sleeping Platform Thread and has dimensions and cost of everything included.

 

My suggestion is to enjoy the fuck out of it and dont worry if others question the authenticity of it. Badass bumper and badass price!

 

Put on new shoes today. No pictures because you know what tires look like. After MUCH research and looking I went with Michelin Defenders instead of Michelin AT2. I've had 3 sets of AT2s and they are great tires but I just don't go in mud much. The Defenders are better in ice and snow but I had to give a little on the looks.

What will really piss many of you off is that I have the white lettering on the outside. I really like that on black, white, and red trucks. Other colors not as much.

 

Excellent choice. You'll appreciate.

 

Yep! Super Happy with it! Wasn't going to buy one this year until I saw the price! Wish more people could have taken advantage of this deal! Im sure it will happen again sometime though!

 

Ordered this grill. I wasn't going to do it, but my teenage son saw me looking at them. He got excited, because he's been wanting to learn how to work on things, both body work and mechanical. So, I pulled the trigger because I thought this would be a good, easy introduction project for him. We'll paint it this weekend, and install it next weekend, along with teaching him how to change oil, cabin filters, etc.

So begins my first official "mod."

 

Being a frequent flyer of Amazon, this is common place. I offen put items I’m interested in my cart. If I’m in no hurry or don’t need it right away, I just let the item sit in my cart and watch the price. What happened to TacoNick06 is not uncommon. His timing was perfect. On the other hand you do need to watch for deception by the seller. I fell for one of those deceptions in the past, but Amazon gave me a full refund including return shipping.
