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

Nice, pics!

 

Thanks.

It’s like 30$ worth of materials anyone could diy up in a weekend. Plus length and upper mounting really depends on what type of rack you have. Too specific to make a general kit.

Thanks.

Those are just bronze flanged sleeve bearings from the hardware store. I filed down the one side to fit the eye bolts. They are used to center everything in the eyebolts.

You could substitute that whole setup for turnbuckles to tighten the cable but this is way cleaner looking plus I I didn’t have enough room for a turnbuckle.

I used these for the cables



They were the right length plus I wouldn’t make a cable as clean looking as these for the price.

 

Good looking badges!

 

Thanks, got some custom bedsides too made by @CBoy808.

I got a black and yellow accent thing going to match my black and yellow 1960 CA plates.

 

Started on my D2S retrofit yesterday.

 

Thanks..265/70 17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. Going 285’s when these are done.

 

I "need" to upgrade to the d2s. My h1s are fine, but the d2s is better haha.

 

Narrowly avoided a head-on collision this morning. Fool was on the wrong side of a 6-lane road. Saw him coming around the corner at the last second.

 

Got a wash today and the Dekar MD leaf pack installed yesterday definitely fixed the sag in the rear I just gotta work on the front end now.

 

A day for pampering the Taco. @ 154298 mi - cleaned Throttle Body, front and back, replaced gasket. Clean Mass Air Flow Sensor and replace spark plugs with Denso plugs (thanks to @chris4x4 for the write-up).

If anyone would like to give me some feedback, it would be greatly appreciated. Do my plugs look good, all normal? Or is there some oh shit-that doesn’t look good, you better check-it-out kinda deal.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

For that milage, those look great, meaning normal ware and tare.

 

I am digging your emblems. Details please! Thought I was the only one with yellow.

 

Nope, not the only one! (Well, orange/black)

 

Custom decals I got made through @CBoy808. He did my bedsides too. He does great work. Hit him up.

@CBoy808 can you post a link to your current thread?

 

Thank you!! I am hittin em up now!

 

They will hold your preferred beverage.

 

Looking forward to getting this kit for my 09. Just checked with @Diode Dynamics and the SS3 Tacoma(GEN2) Kit should be coming out at the end of May/beginning of June

#6 is iridium for whatever reason. Maybe there was a problem with that one in the past, and someone changed it out.
