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

Yes it is. The option is available on 3RD Gens and using a lot of help from several posts here, I did the MOD, in my Taco.

I did it two years ago, and since then I relocated the switch to under the AC controls.
I relocated the sliding window switch, because I also did the “Power Gas Door” MOD using a ‘13 Prius OEM switch.

Installed my rci bed rack

 

Skinny’s, 235/85R16 Dynapro AT’s(RF11), and an oil change.

 

Spent the last couple of days washing everyone else's car in the family, so today was my day.

 

Baby needed a new pair of shoes so got her come Nitto Ridge Grapplers

 

I previously had 265/75R16 Duratracs and now I have 285/75R16 Falken Wildpeak AT3W. I just filled up and if my math is correct then im actually getting about +1.5mpg on the bigger/heavier Falkens than I was getting on the Duratracs!!

 

Did you compensate for your speedo/odo being off? You are going 3.6% further than your odo says. At 60mph, you are going 62.24mph.

 

Where did you get those buttons? I really like your setup it looks so clean!!!

 

I like th color matched pocket flares

 

The trees at work were so pretty i decided today was a good glamour shot day.

 

Made and installed an upper intake manifold spacer, also cleaned the whole intake tract, swapped leaky valve cover gaskets and installed retarded exhaust cam gears and new radiator core support bushings.

 

Thanks, it takes longer to find exactly what I’m looking for, but try to keep it looking OEM as much as possible.

Which switches? The ones for the fog lights, light bar, and rock lights are from CH4X4 Industries. The Gas door switch, the mirror defroster, and the mirror adjustment are all Toyota OEM.

 

Today I painted my engine shroud white! (the dots are from my bad phone camera)


I still need to clearcoat, remove the tape, and add TRD sticker.

 

What bumper and wheels are those?

 

What motor did you use for your sliding rear window? The 3rd gen one?

 

The best predictor of rain is a clean truck. I gave up washing mine yesterday after I saw the weather for the next few days

 

Yes, I used the TUNDRA OEM one because the cable is longer. Exact same motor, housing, etc. TWO different part numbers between the Tacoma and Tundra because Tundra’s cable is longer.

Since I was going to cut the cable, the Tundra gave me extra length to install the motor and cable housing where I wanted.

I could not install it smack in the middle of the back wall, because I have a Sub box on the 60 back seat side. So the motor and cable assembly had to go on to 40 side.

 

mine was from 25-35 then around 60. Each truck will be different in a way but the lower speed range drove me crazy because that was the speed I would have to cruise at on part of my drive home from my old job and now I barely drive the truck lol
So far after the retubing it’s been smooth as can be once again. Took it on a quick trail run this past weekend too

 

Now your a friend to have, awesome job!!!

What are you using the spacer for? ( excuse my ignorance )
Was replacing the valve cover gaskets a huge pain or what is to be expected when removing a bunch of stuff. I need to do this. Thanx

 

The bumper is SOS Concepts I opted for aluminum, The wheels ar 1st gen Tundra or Sequoia wheels.
