I buy mine thru Amazon, think they are very good quality for the price ..but everyone has thier favorite's.....and yupper I think the Tacoma is much better at staying clean then any of the jeeps I had........Spent some time in Mayport in the early 70's with the Great Canoe Club....was a crazy place then....

 

What did you paint your grill with? Looks great.

 

Tripped

 

Gave her a bath and let my sister try out her new carpet cleaning machine. Definitely cleaned up my interior significantly. Not bad for a 15 year old truck.

 

Glad I could help empty your wallet! Do post pictures when you get it done!

 

Sounds like a build thread is in order! Congrats on the new Toy!

 

Got my tsb for spark knock noise performed today. Fingers crossed for silence....

And the best part it was free

 

I ordered up some Total Chaos LCAs from DownSouth Motorsports's sale this month

 

I washed her up and wrapped the roof matte black. As much as I try to take care of the paint, I was noticing scratches, paint fade, and endless water spots (I carry kayaks often) on the roof. It still looked good, but to protect what I had, I wrapped it. It went well overall, but I have my mistakes and lessons learned.

 

Rerouted my intake into the cowl to make room for 35s. Gonna trim back my fenders later this week

 

I'm assuming that ain't chocolate milk.

I need to try my carpet machine on the truck. It hasn't seen action since we put wood floors in the house.

 

I was really impressed. This was in a truck with husky liners front and back. You'll be surprised at the debri that comes out of the carpets and seats. Best part was that it was free

 

Couple questions about the awning portion of the ARB.
What size is the one you have? How is the attachment points? I have a factory roof rack and curious if it attaches to that.

 

Got some daytime pics! I got the new 2 me off road leafs from Craigslist for $50 & I didn't want turd gen leafs - so I waited till some 2015 used ones came up. They had under 40k miles - clean 2!!!

Before -

Now -


Can't wait for some tires. I have 11k on these. Korean Linglong (I think Korean) aren't super bad but been eyeballn some Generals or KO2s. Also, not sure why the Duratracs are so expensive? But I have plenty of room now for whatever till 33s & a cmc. Just bought some Cali Raised bed stiffeners 2, installing these next summer. Between Total Chaos & Cali Raised - lower price won.
Then going to research some sliders from RCI! No shipping = $$

 

I went through 2 of those stupid cheap/ass tail gate locks. went back to oem, but ordered the electric lock, its been heaven ever since.

 

Good deal! I think a projector retrofit is one of the best things you can do for most vehicles. Most stock headlights are pretty bad.

 

SOS concepts bolt on sliders installed. Only issue was that 2 of the bolts won't allow the brake lines to sit back in the frame like they should. I ordered some tubing clamps from Summit and hopefully will be able to make some standoffs and the clamps to get everything secured.
Then made a small bracket to hold an oil catch can. Nothing fancy but it should do the job. Got it painted and hopefully can get everything installed tomorrow.

Also got some Spiker engineering hoot struts and Spotter replacement mirrors installed.

 

I put some hose on the rubber tubing where they hit the bolt. Let us know what your fix looks like.
