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

About 10 coats of stain glass spray paint

 

That's about what I get too. 74k is ludicrous to me

 

It's obviously not a daily

I've seen 75k, but it was garaged most of the time

 

Traded my beloved Tacoma in on a 2018 Inferno SR5 Offroad Tundra

 

Nothing major but I had the small stock skid plate that bolts to the bottom of the transfer case sand blasted.
I hit it with some black caliper paint and I'll install it today if it stops raining/dries out.

 

I mean, 75k is 75k though. That's exceptional.

 

Love to see it!!! Send us a picture of your rig on instagram or facebook so we can see how it looks after those bed stiffeners.

 

Looks great!
I got the short ones too but it's been 6 years or so and I still haven't installed the front ones.
Maybe I should now. I wasn't sure how the oversized style would look.

 

Last night I took a break from sanding my cupboards and addressed the hard to open topper handle. Sprayed with some WD40 and took a wire brush to some of the surface rust and opens like new now. Also looked into adding my oil catch can and the hoses are to short.

 

That extra city tax you guys pay sucks. I filled up with 91 a couple days ago for $1.639/L in the northern part of the province. Still 5USD/gal and way too much of it is taxes, but your prices make me feel slightly better about it.

Another benefit of living in a remote part of the province: my brake pads last forever. 3 stop lights in town and not a lot of highway traffic means that even as a daily driver I don't use the brakes often. I changed the pads at 190k km and I think they were original, although I bought the truck with 60k on it so I can really only say for sure that they made it for 130k (that's 80k miles for the metrically challenged).

 

got my skinny 33s to fit in the spare tire location with a bit of manipulation!

 

New taillights installed today.

 

Installed some 1.5' wheel spacers. A bit of initial rubbing and I'll have to ditch some plastic but I'm happy with the turnout

 

70k service. Plus a fj/t4r CSF radiator and fan shroud with overflow tank with mishimoto hoses. New bando belt and a trans service.

 

Gave my taco a bath using natural resources. It rained Tuesday Wednesday Thursday and we just had 8 hours of the tropical storm here in CT. I think that much water will wash everything off lol.

 

Installed my new Likewise shifter extension and nob, now I can get into Park while in 4lo or 2lo

Twin stick problems.

 

I made it to 86k (miles) before I had to change my pads. Rotors looked good so left them. I also have a manual so I shift down to slow down @ times so maybe that helps too...

 

Ive been replacing rotors every other pad change.

I had to cancel my order because R1 Concepts would have taken 2+ weeks to machine and ship my order. I did rotors last year, so i just ordered some Hawk LTS pads on Amazon today

 

90k plus miles….

girl got some fresh oil, plugs, air filter. Bought pads and rotors, but decided that would be next week.

 

Got these 4runners/fj TRD wheels
set from Toyota a $160 each
pretty stoked to get tires now
