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

Added a Pelfreybilt bumper last week.
Last month I added 5100's with 885's on the front and a Wheelers AAL in the rear.
Month before I got my Toyo MT 255/85r16's.
Oh, had to add 1" Bora wheel spacers and remove my front sway bar.
So, yes, it's started, the endless modifications for off roading.
My shell comes later this month or next month, then rock sliders, …..

 

Cut the carpet for the camping platform and installed the LED camper lights made by @Cody23 but it was too cold to use the adhesive to attach the carpet this morning before we had to leave. Will attach the carpet and such, but we're on the way to break it in so we can check out Overland East!
The wife will be a much happier camper with the new setup...have an SUV tent on the way to give us some extra room for getting changed and all.

 

Done. Still need to do maintance. Might have to wait til next weekend.

 

5100s, ome 885s, deaver aal. thanks to @HeadStrong Off-Road !!

 

Figured out that the clunk in my front end was simply a loose sway bar end nut. Ground down some Tnuts.com t slot nuts and M8 bolts to make mounting hardware for my diy Prinsu style rack. Hopefully it will be on next weekend.

 

Relocated the trailer plug.
Thought if I did it like this it would fit better.
The right side does stick out a bit, 3/16".

 

Can't really do any off roading the national park, its a nasty fine

 

18$ flush mount pods in going to install in my rear bumper, but as a precaution pulled them apart and siliconed them better and painted the screws black
I can be anal sometimes

 

How did you mount that to the lid?

 

I need one

 

Rear bumper installed. Thanks to Rob for the great deal and assistance!

 

Today I changed the oil with mobile 1 sythetic oil and mobile 1 filter.

 

Washed and waxed then a burger

Check ebay often. Got this for 99 bucks shipped. No brainer at that point

 

Had the taco aligned after having the TC Cam Tabs welded on last weekend.

0* toe
0* camber
1.9*DS / 1.7* PS caster
0* steer ahead.

It drives perfect with no rubbing at full lock.

And, my steering wheel is finally straight. For someone who is OCD, I can’t begin to tell you what a relief that is.

 

Stuck a couple pieces of 2x6 in the storage compartment for little extra height when jacking it up. Probably my cheapest mod ever.

 

You have me thinking about this now. I was kind of aware how loud mine are, but now I am ultra aware. Mind sharing where you got your new pulleys from?

Found it on Amazon! They’re pretty cheap but I decided to gamble on them considering the few good reviews I’ve seen on them.

 

Did my whole rr axle this summer - diff gasket, wheel bearings, axle seals, wheel cylinders, shoes, hardware and drums. Painted drums with caliper spray paint after cleaning off the packing grease. Figured I can do pinion seal by just dropping the drive shaft whenever it becomes necessary. I'm at 190000 and original shoes still had half the thickness of the new ones left.
