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

After yard work all day I did a quick wash on Taco to knock dust and pollen off.

 

Nice rig!

 

Used the WD40 Corrosion Inhibitor.

$15 WD-40 Specialist Corrosion Inhibitor, Long-Lasting Anti-Rust Spray, 6.5 OZ

Installed the 2nd gen “TRD Pro“ grill.. slowly, but surely getting rid of the chrome. Might have to paint match this. Maybe the matte will grow on me, not sure yet. Not sure about coloring letters yet either. Here’s a before and after

 

What are these snaps for on the outside of the rear seats? OEM mats? Didn’t see anything in the manual.

 

Got a lot of work done today.

Installed the 2015 TRD wheels along with 265/75/16 BFG KO2s. Fits perfectly. I also got the 2nd gen 2015 pro smoked headlights installed as well. Really happy with how everything looks.

 

finally was able to mount my light bar behind the grill after having to move it cause of the winch.(fucking pollen)

 

Thanks man!!!

 

Yep the OEM mats snap in to hold them in place.

 

Installed hood struts from Redline Tuning. These are amazing!

 

For the factory floor mats. At least that what mine are for in my 2012

 

Looks good!! Where'd you buy them from?

 

No I didn't unfortunately, but I got the inspiration from this video to put switches up there. Instead of putting the swithes in the front sunglasses section, I cut a mudflap and pressure fit it in there, with a piece of wood glued to each side of the switches. I ran all the wires to the main wire harness, but I have only hooked up one so far. I had to cut the back of the panel off to get the wires through. It wasn't nearly as hard as I thought it would be though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erotP050Tmg&t=573s

 

Good looking wheels man, I have the same wheels and tires. Can’t beat BFG’s imo. Only difference is I’m a white letter guy. Nice truck

 

and threw the Ray10s on.

 

If you have a clothes line, Cut wire clothes hangers and they make perfect hooks to hang and paint stuff

 

Those little hooks in the pic are actually pretty perfect and I found them at Target of all places. They also work nicely for hanging a brake caliper out of the way when wrenching. I do have wire hangers though if I need to paint a bunch of stuff.

 

Bled the brakes. Obliterated my F-ing bleeder screw on front driver side...damnit. On the LAST caliper too. Anyways, drove it around, smashed the brakes pretty hard for stress test..no leaking fluid. Safe for now. Read though some threads and looks like I’ll just live with it.

 

I have never removed mine for the same reason you reinstalled yours. I like the idea of the greasable links

 

Added a bumper and a winch!
