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

Look at that 5ft bed doing work!!!! Nice haul man, with the price of wood these days it pays huge to find some goodies. I just bought some lumber for garden beds and another small project, and spent as much as it would have cost me to lift my truck!

 

Yeah man all the time. I put this truck bed to use very often! You’re right & this was all free so I didn’t hesitate to drive across town for it

 

How is the performance change? I have been looking at these and for the price it seems like it may be one of the few worth while performance upgrades for the 4.Slow

 

Now I'm not saying it's a good idea to feed the trolls; but sometimes it's just fun to poke a badger with a spoon just to watch them freak out like a cat on a screen door.

 

I kind of doubt it, but it's possible, also there are a few different types of gel coat, there's interior gel coat and exterior gel coat and this has to do with how the fiberglass part is laid up whether it is laid in the mold or on the mold, and has to do with the wax content in the gel coat it's entirely possible that it works well on one kind but not so great on the other.

There's also a few different types of gel coat chemical makeup, there is a polyester resin and a vinyl ester resin and a few more variations in between, such as epoxy resin like is used with carbon fiber.

Another potentially determining factor is how much methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (mekp), the was used to cure the resin it can have an impact on how strongly the resin is cross-linked.

An overcomplicated response yes but I don't often get the chance to elaborate on my training in FRC manufacturing.

 

pulled out a like at the end with the dog pic. Dog pics always get a like.

English Setter? beautiful.

 

Had to put our German Shepherd down just before Christmas last year.



When he (Max) was younger on a camping trip when I had my 05 TRD OR V6 DCSB.



We still have our rescue dog....lazy days and Sundays always get me down...

 

Yeah, our female rescue dog was abused and starved. Does she look spoiled now?

 

Replaced my busted canopy light with a rotating LED bar, tucked it up as high as possible. Excellent light output and function for lighting behind the pickup as well as the bed depending on rotational aim.

 

Just used it to bring our new couch home!

 

Nothing but calling it cringe is unnecessary, some people like a clean truck, some people embrace the fluff, in the end it's owner preference on what is acceptable but there's no need to imply someone is gross for a little extra loose love left by a four legged cuddly co pilot.

Mostly were just giving a 3rd genning snewflakey a hard time because turd gen.

 

No I fully agree, different strokes for different folks live and let live and all that.

As far as a I know everyone is in good jest here nobody ment to actually offend anyone, except for maybe the original cry of cringe guy.



I know I'm just poking fun, don't actually mean anything by it.

 

"I'm just here to make sure everyone is having safe fun, here's a grenade to hold, I'm hanging onto the pin and the spoon though, bye."



Honda or walk, but HD are overrated.

 

Ehh I have the 2015 so I have the secondary air pump so it took a little longer. took me 4 hours. Was a little worried about messing up the timing but as long as you mark the chain where the old gear was and put the new one in same way, it’s no problem…..

the only “hard” part for me was installing the upper intake manifold brackets. Lol I had a hard time installing the 12 mm bolt that holds it to the block. I was going thru the top on the engine but turns out you can go thru the wheel well and that made it 30 second job. I was struggling to go thru the top for about 20 min..

 

Then you know that it was not an easy transaction for her and took a lot of love and vet visits. She bonded with Max which helped him live longer. She likes to cross her legs like a lady She is 110% happy and content, and yes, spoiled. She is a very good dog now and trained easy. It’s time for her to get the works ( grooming) at Petsmart

 

Any amount of honesty on my part will get me banned, except for maybe turd gen, maybe.
