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

Yes sir sounds like it

 

Surpassed the 100k mile mark

 

Finally got around to cleaning this up. Cover, new contacts on the truck side.
And for as much as I bitch about it finally short circuit/ over current protection. Yay.
I mounted a blue sea 150 amp breaker to the fuse box cover under the hood.

 

On it's way.

 

More work on getting rid of the 80's painted decals. This should be it for a while!

(sorry for the large pictures...)

Prep work (and you can see the mess my neighbor is making of his Dakota's roof sanding it down to spray paint it, friggin' goofball! Told him before to grab a quart of paint and clear and I'd paint it for a case of beer...):



Bedside painted decals removed and polished out:





Finished product:

 

Installed my @EatSleepTacos crossbar between my BAMF HD Hangers.

 

the output is good. It throws a lot of useable light. The Baja was better but the RC does exactly what I need it to. The finish on it is impressive, too. Still looks new 2.5 years later.

 

here you go!

 

Well I know what I'm doing next weekend cause I ain't doing sh!t tomorrow.

 

I spent the day cleaning the garage to make room for my new (to me) Tacoma. It turns out it’s a bit longer then the Mini that I traded in.

 

Sweet ill definitely be ordering

 

I designed and printed a mount for my Baofeng UV-82, painted and mounted it inside the overhead console. Fit is perfect and works for what to need it to.

Also Plasti-Dip'd the console.

 

All done. All I have left is to build some side straps for it to tie into the frame more.

 

Oh and I replaced my radiator, but not by choice. I accidentally drilled a hole in it. Whoops.

 

Well, annoying thing for me today.
Ordered some plugs from Napa, and also a blower motor resistor+resistor cable combo(cable is burnt out causing only high to work, figured replace the resistor+cable along with the blower motor and I'll have no issues again) but this is the cable Napa gave me.

So much for a new part, this is10x worse than my old one. What gives Napa? I'll have to go tomorrow to get an explanation. I'm gonna make them deliver the replacement to me, lol.

 

cant wait for a review

 

Some douchebag bought it, replaced his with the new one and put the old one in the box, then went to NAPA and returned it for a total refund.

 

That was definitely it. I've known people who do stuff like that, it's just stealing with extra steps imo

 

Built my old guy a backseat platform. Gives him a stable place (he's become clumsy in his old age.....much like myself) and keeps his white fur of of the upholstery.
