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

That is nothing lol. But, what I did personally is step 1: shop vac all the loose stuff. If you get a rigid from home depot they sell an auto detailing kit which includes a nice small nozzle to get into tight places and the orange hose provided is infinitely better than the crappy hose included with the vac. Once you are done with that, you are going to want a bunch of CHEAP microfibers. Ones that you are going to use once and toss em. Then just lightly spray some soapy water and start wiping it up. In hard to reach or sensitive areas you can spray onto the microfiber first. An alternate to soapy water would be any generic APC diluted at least 1:1 with water or even more water.

 

I've seen worse. Shop vac, computer duster and towels. Oh and that under the shifter bezel?

 

I would rip the entire interior out along w the carpet. It isn't that difficult and you'll be able to reach/clean all the cavities and crevices to your satisfaction.

 

You never know what you are gonna find under there! I found a couple pounds of sun flower seeds, a light, 3 pens, a fork, and some air craft fittings. Oh and a few pounds of dirt. Bonus dirt/brake fluid mix on the driver side. But it was worth it and I ditched that nasty carpet for the all weather flooring.

 

Nice flooring! What brand is that?

 

Toyota OEM. I am pretty sure there are other companies that make them cheaper, but I have this in both my tacomas and I love it. You can check out this thread for part #s

Thanks

 

OK did a few things.
Painted some plastic under the hood and put on my new sticker, (Ya Boogie)
Now ya'll can laugh, I put these little wings on the back roof of my cab and I swear less dirt builds up near the tailgate while I drive now.

 

Installed some bump stops I got over a year ago. Trying to decide if I should remove the stock bump stop or cut it...
Decided to remove the stock bump stop. Measured both and it’s only 3/4” difference if the new bump stop was compressed all the way.

 

Started going through and doing my 100k maintenance and a few other things. I just bought the truck in January with 93k, but I've already put almost 7k miles on it driving to the rivers around here. Looks like the original spark plugs have never been changed, and I have a decent valve cover gasket leak at #5 and #3.
So far I've done:
- spark plugs (densos)
- air filter (stock toyota)
- PCV valve
- oil and filter (Mobile 1 always)
- greased everywhere I could find a Zerk
- cleaned MAF

I guess next will be a valve cover gasket, and I may install the exhaust Cam gears from URD while I'm in there.

 

Nice! Haven't seen one installed there yet. Thanks again!

 

I must be the only person in the world who does their 5 tire rotation 1 corner at a time lol...

sweet truck

 

Knocked off the pollen...if only for a day.

 

Was going to change transfer case fluid but it snowed.

 

Baby sharks, sharks sharks.......Baby sharks, sharks, sharks.....

 

Thanks man! I only did it like that for that pic. Not kidding.

 

why would you only want components up front? I'm starting to look into new speakers and starting research on what i want. I'm not well versed on components vs 2-way/3-way, and coaxial

 

Took Bloody Basin Rd coming back from Prescott, all the way to Cave Creek yesterday afternoon. Best time of year to be in AZ.

 

2 and 3 ways will put your tweeters down low in the door. They are made as one unit.
