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

5100s I believe. That’s what it was listed as anyways! Seems to work good, drove it to work and my road is pretty bumpy and uneven and didn’t notice any issues!

 

Rear leafs and shocks are in! Finished 10 minutes before I had to get ready for work! Love my Ford but glad to not get 10ish mpg today

 

Replaced all 4 struts/front coils with 2020 stock OR replacements with less than a hundred miles on them.
Wow what a difference.
Wish I had taken measurements before and after because I know that all 4 corners are noticeably higher.
Also, rotors, pads and new calipers.
It’s nice to be able to steer, not clunk around sharp right turns, and it’s been awhile since I had brakes that didn’t pucker the bunghole when depressing...
Can’t wait to get out into the mud this weekend!

 

What sub/amp did you buy? I bought the kicker 10” hideaway and it doesn’t fit under seats. I’d have to put spacers on the seats but I’m too tall for all that.

 

I installed a Rockville USS8 8" 600w. Ya, I thought I would be in the same situation but it fits real snug under the driver seat. I ended up moving it further away from the seat because it sounded a bit muffled. As of now it sits halfway under with the speaker uncovered. Still really happy with it though

 

Sweet!! I’ll check it out. For now mine sits behind passenger seat on the floor. I plan on doing a rear seat elimination and building a platform. I hope it doesn’t muffle the sound. I have a long way to go. Still have to soundproof the interior and upgrade speakers. I might just go with an under seat amp to boost aftermarket replacements. A decent amp will produce good bass from a decent pair of 6x9’s.

 

Not sure exactly how your behind the seat storage compares to my double cab, but I recently installed a

$304 Rockford Fosgate P300-8P Punch 8" 300-Watt Amplified Subwoofer in Ported Enclosure - Slim Design for Tight Spaces - Black

Rockford Fosgate P300-8P and am quite happy with it. It fits in the rear storage cubby really well and I even had space to fit the amp and line converter I used.

 

Sweet!! My access cab doesn’t have the cubby behind the seat. There’s a bolt-on woofer option that mounts to the seat belts and a jbl woofer that eliminates my center console. I’ll post pics of mine if I remember but it’s just a woofer sitting on my floor for now. :/

 

If you need any help putting it on, just let me know, I am just north of you and put on a number of snorkels including a dobinson....

 

Thanks. I have a new R/F fender that I have to get painted first, the original fender has a big dent in it.

 

I've been looking but nothing nearby and sellers don't like shipping those big things.

 

Putting a little pressure on the rack to move them over the bolt holes, but everything was pretty smooth. You can hear some wind but only when the crossbars are being used. I bought aftermarket ones from Amazon but the bolt holes were too far off and the front bracket needed adjustment so I didn't use them. They are in my shed now.

 

Does the sub rattle the plastic bin any?

 

Not that I have noticed.

 

Awesome, with how the boots looked I assumed they were the extended version. Looks good though

 

Imagine having subs and nothing rattles!...

 

Shoot, in my old competition car I’d have to turn down the music in the rain otherwise the windshield wipers would bounce off the glass. I’m glad I went with the MMATS pro series instead of Juggernauts.

 

Thanks! Other boot doesn’t look as bad as the first one so idk lol

 

Imagine having no rattles......

 

I went with a JL Audio sub for my RC. It’s the PowerWedge+ 10” self powered model, and I added the optional remote volume control. I could not be happier with the output given the compact size, and the built in amp made installation a breeze. The width of the box fit perfectly between existing threaded holes in the cross cab reinforcement, making it easy to bolt it it right in. I installed the volume control in one of the stock blanks below the HVAC controls, making for easy adjustments.
