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

They look exactly like the ones I bought. I put some sealant around the edges of mine but still get a little condensation once in a while. Still love em.

 

Not sure what a LBJ is but wouldn't be surprised if many of us are looking for one also...

 

I see what you did there.

 

It looks like you live in a state that gets a lot more moisture than CA so hopefully I will be fine how did you seal yours??

 

It was a black marine silicone, I can't think of the name at the moment. They've been ok for a while now so maybe it fixed itself.

 

Are you using them yourself? I’ll look into those. Thanks!

 

So I opened up my garage door opener and jumped the two contact points that I figured would open the garage door. Garage door opened! So now I just need to order the switch and solder some spare wires to the opener.

This site spends all my money. Thankfully, this is a cheap one.

 

I am. I don't have too many miles on them yet, but they fit really tight into the control arms and they're greasable. If you're installing them yourself, I recommend putting the ball joint in the freezer for a couple of days and heating the LCA before you try and press them in. I used a 12-ton hydraulic press to do mine with the cold/heat, and they went in pretty smooth, but the manual screw-type ball joint press you can rent from an auto parts store won't budge them.

 

That was the initial plan i had in mind and glad to know it works. Sweet!

 

Its all about camera angle! LoL

Spruce mica is such a perfect color on the tacos!!

I can read your license plate in the first pic.

 

In which the camera guy was laying on the ground.

Get em Maverick!!

 

Nice deal. I picked up the Lock'er down safe a couple months back and actually have really liked it. I thought the less space and the hassle of opening the closing that thing would've gotten annoying, but it hasn't. I use mines every weekend when I go spearfishing. It's at least a place to keep my minimal valuables locked up and not have to hide it when I'm in the water (or carry shit with me).

The one thing that I needed to address was the lock mechanism. When I turned the dial to lock, I had a hard time rotating the dials to mix up the numbers. Something seemed to be binding someplace. If I rotated the dial back in the other direction a tiny smidge, I could turn the dials. I took the mechanism apart to see what's up and made a small adjustment on how things sat. Problem gone. Hopefully you won't need to do that, or maybe you got the touch pad one and none of this matters.

It's not much of an explanation of how I resolved it, but let me know if you encounter something similar and I can explain it better. Otherwise, it's super easy and fast to put my stuff in there and lock it. Normally I just turn one of the dials to lock it, for general use. Or I turn two of the dials for a more secure case, like my diving or hunting.

 

Drove the truck to the dealership to pick these up.
Now I need to find the time to install them.

 

Did the Sharkfin Antenna Delete mod. Not by choice though lol.

Was backing out of the garage at work and in a rush pulled a no brainer. Door was half up and caught just enough to hook the shark fin and pull off. Needed this off for a eventual roof rack anyway. However I’m a little concerned now if it rains. Water will leak and seep into the truck now right?

 

Yes, most definately . You need to seal that up!

 

Mounted up a light bar using mcmfab mounts. They were fantastic! Bolted right in and flows well. There some comparison pics of my headlights in low beam and high to just the light bar output. Ran the wires down the windshield. No drilling required.

 

What lift you running?
