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

Installing @Blais03 and @LivinLoud pumpkin snorkel = awesome
Having you’re 9y/o daughter want to help, and do a lot of the work = priceless

 

Installed some flush mount s1's in the bumper. Waiting for my squadrons to arrive to install between the s1 and ss3...

Still need to readjust bumper mounting angle which explains the side gaps

 

Good Call. TB and MAF added to the list

 

I just got the locking tailgate installed as mine from stock was stuck and wouldn't open... with the cover installed this is very nice feature to have!

 

More lights are better, right? Put two lightforce ROK 40's on the side of my roofnest for rear lighting. I've got all sides covered now.

 

That’s where mine was tapped into when I had a shell. Worked great.

 

Power steering fluid??

 

LOOOL at the beer bottle. At the dealership we use an old quart bottle to drain that. Beer bottle is far more "classy".

 

Waxed my BSP with the new Chemical Guys hydrowax. Pretty impressed with it so far.

 

I'm more impressed with how you got the truck in the garage! Is the rack kissing the garage door at all?

 

Haven’t done anything yet but I have a lot of stuff starting to come in.

 

On the cab - Prinsu Cab Rack, Plano 42" Rifle/Shotgun Case, Prinsu Roof Rack Mounted MOLLE Gear Panel...On the SnugTop - Prinsu Top Rack, Prinsu Roof Rack Mounted MOLLE Gear Panel, 2 Prinsu Load Panels, RotoPax 4 Gallon Gasoline, RotoPax 2 Gallon Water and a 2 Gallon Storage Black.

 

Bending large sticks of tubing is very difficult. It really tested me with getting measurements and angles right, and had to go back and tweak it after the initial bending was done. The angles could be a little tighter to the body but for my first time doing something this large (and like 3rd time ever bending) I’m happy with it.

I made the tube extra long because the last thing I wanted was to come up short. I worked from the middle outward, going off of the fabricator series videos on YouTube. Overall I’m happy I got it with this tube and didn’t have to scrap it and start over, even if it’s not perfect.

 

cleaned chrome with mineral spirits, light sand with 1500 grit paper, then Rustoleum Self etching Primer ( about 3 coats ), then rustoleum Truck Bed Liner ( roughly 4 coats ). Happy with it for now until i get a new rear bumper.

 

Looking good!

 

Got a new stereo installed in my 2013 access cab today! The Alpine ilx-107. Wireless apple car play. Loving it so far

 

Dude, it's coming together!
This is just going to make me want to do this too. One project at a time...

 

New grill on today. Kinda wish I paint matched it but I’m a cheap skate

 

Haha I actually ripped down my overhead GDO and installed a jackshaft side mount one. I'm actually afraid if I get new tires I won't fit. I literally have centimetres.
