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

Thoughts on these tires? I still haven't decided if I'm sticking with Generals AT 2 or go for the falkens.

 

Nah it’s good. I checked it over really well after I unloaded it

 

Wow that’s bright. Did you just upgrade to LEDs? Can you still dim that with the dash control? Looks awesome and I agree that 4wd light would really be a nice touch.

 

Ive gotta get to this! i just picked up a shifter panel to paint and replace with mine.

 

Good excuse

 

Im gonna need to do this. i snapped my torx bit when tightening my bed side reinforcements down. The bit head has been stuck in the bolt head for almost 2 years now.

 

Link to video? Was it posted on here or your youtube channel?

 

Honestly I haven’t been impressed with the General Grabber AT2’s. I ran them on my lifted battle wagon in a 28” and they wore quickly.
This is my second set of the Falkens. Last set was a 245/75R16 E load which wore down from 17/32 to 14/32 over 40k miles. This set is a P rated tire so time will tell.
Overall they do fit my needs well. They handle as good in the snow as one can ask for, are quiet on pavement and they look great in the parking stall at the mall.

 

I post new vid links in my build thread so as not to spam other threads.

 

Heard that! Ill check it out! Thanks

 

After a TW member posted a hint the other day this morning I researched it a bit - backlit power window switches for 2005-2011 Tacomas. Same electrical plug as the Tacoma but the Camry XLE (only) has backlit switches which means it's a bolt in for Tacomas and will require only wiring. The Camry XLE has 4 more wires than other Camry's and Tacomas. Dimmer power, dimmer ground, and ______?

 

Hope you get it , I hit it with pb blaster from the bottom I think that helped

 

I probably wont try to get it out until i absolutely need to

 

My heater stopped blowing on the lower settings, it only works on full blast, has anybody had this issue?

 

I honestly think its my phone lol. I have my dash lights to the max. I still have the factory lights in. If anyone knows the bulbs that go behind the knobs that would be dope!

 

Mine are not nearly that bright. I’m going to take pic of them tonight and see if the phone brings that out. I’d love to rework mine to be brighter.

 

Same.

 

There are 4 options for a lighted switch:

1. The link above from @whatstcp

2. Hilux switch https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/machined-ring-for-hilux-lighted-4x4-switch.451738/






3. 4runner switch


4. Tundra Switch (you have to cut your bezel if I remember correctly)

 

Wouldn’t have mattered. I got 2 scoops(yards) in my trailer and the rear end looked exactly the same. I also have an AAL. Now I have airbags and they help but these rear ends suck!

 

ive done this with a Ford 1/2 ton with about the same result. The gravel yards are supposed to weigh you after loaded to make sure your safe. I guess this might depend on where you live. Maybe next time, borrow a 3/4 or 1 ton truck to do this job. Just a thought....
