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

Gave her a wash

 

Why 6.5? Tbr hole inside my access door is 8" & if I space it I could probably get a 10 in there& have it mounted on the outside if the panel which would take some tinkering but for now I just want to replace my front door speakers. They both are fucked up! I need new ones soon...

@mrproduxn the tweeters are in the dash on 3rd gens? Where?

 

Moved my spare and HD bottle Jack to the back of the bed instead of the front, truck rides better with 100-200 lbs behind the rear axle and normally have ZERO lbs there (besides my minimalist bumper). Also I can haul wood more efficiently with the ends of the boards down at the front of the bed. Also I think I can put my bike on my tailgate pad easier just to the left of the spare.

 

I oughta try this. I have my spare towards the front passenger thinking it helps offset the taco lean lol

 

Previously, with my spare at the front of the bed, my truck would ride noticeably better when I put my heavy tote full of extra fluids and chainsaw in the bed behind it so I figured why not put it there. Also when I haul lumber home from Home Depot it’s always awkward because I can never put it down at the front bottom of the bed because the spare was there. Regardless of where it is in the bed it takes me about 2 minutes to remove it because there’s nothing else going on in the bed. Just a spare bolted / locked down

 

Went and got a road force tire balance today. What a huge difference that is compared to a standard balance, truck drives way smoother now.

 

Took her down to some mountains this weekend.

 

My spare I use to have in the back just laying the bed but w/ bed mat it nvr really moved around too much so I didn't worry bout it as much especially it being a steelie. Now I have it strapped upright against the toolbox strapped to the back rack. Granted I have to loosin up the strap to get the toolbox but that takes 2 seconds so... whatever lol

Smoky night at Northeastern tonight
checking fog lights beam angle

 

Picked up a few new goodies, now to get the install done!!

 

I finally got around to making my seat more comfortable. It took a little while but well worth it. Thanks to whoever gave me the information I needed to get this done. Three settings now. Much more comfortable too.

 

Spent the day taking off mil scale off of my new rci rock sliders. What a pain in the a$$!!! I hate mil scale!

 

I mean, if you got in the slightest accident it would potentially launch it into the air or the back cab window, that would be deadly for sure!

 

I was camping At Lime rock Park in Connecticut for the annual IMSA sportscar races. Crazy weather with lots of downpours and lightning. Either way lots of fun, and wet, and hot .
During one of the heavy downpours, a campsite took large tarps, tied them together and covered them with Dawn to make huge slip and slides.

Way to make fun of a hot and rainy day.

 

While out working today I saw a photo opportunity.

I probably should have shut the toolbox lol.

 

First mod. I installed a Boss BV800ACP. I forgot to take a before picture. It was simple enough.

 

A couple weeks ago I picked my truck up from getting a the frame replaced and committed on here how horrible it drove. The tech from the dealership blamed my tires which needed replaced but it didn't shimmy before I took it in for the replacement so it shouldn't have did it with a new frame either. Yesterday I had my local guy install new tires and do a alignment. It drives fantastic now. It looks like when they swapped everything from the old frame to the new frame they didn't even do a alignment. Unreal.

 

Picked up my RTT and mounted it at work! Thing of pure beauty!
