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

Busted out the dino tent for a quick camping trip

 

Got my alu cab canopy explorer put on

 

Sorry I was asking what leaf set up were you on before?

 

I got the headlights on ebay and the taillights from 1 A auto. 1 A auto did me a solid as the first set they sent me had a small crack on the top of the passenger light. (See pic) I wrote them and they sent me a replacement set that were good. They just told me to keep the first set, with small crack, and give them to someone or donate them to a tech school type place. I will buy more or most of my parts from 1 A auto from now on. I have the first set still and nothing to do with them as they're just sitting in my garage.

 

Yes it does since I don't like Chrome and the truck is magnetic grey metallic.

 

Thanks! And score on keeping the initial set. Might be good to keep them on the side anyway since the individual LED's can tend to go out and now you have some backup. I just checked out the site and I'm glad to see that their shipping to Hawaii is reasonable.

 

I have the same concern, but for road driving and Baltimore city potholes its held up so far. I will add some kind of strap if I need to in the future.

 

I have had a Bakflip G2 tri-fold for 10 years on my 2nd gen in New England and it has been AMAZING. I am in the process of replacing some of the rubber seals and stuff that have started to wear and tear from constant usage. I Had to Liquid Nails (fuze it) 1 of the crossmembers back into place since the factory adhesive had started to sag over the summer heat. I went ahead and Fuzed the other crossmember along the edges and some of the areas that it was starting to gap also. I purchased a couple of parts from BakFlip direct to replace the other worn parts.

BAKFLIP CAB BUMPER KIT (2)- $9.96 replacing the protective bumpers that are on each of the 3 sections. They are starting to tear
BAKFLIP ELEVATOR BOLT KIT-$9.98 -starting to rust
BAKFLIP DRAIN TUBES (1)-$6.98 - many season changes are making them harden and starting to clog.
BAKFLIP DRAIN CAPS (1) -$5.98- they seem to be ok, but im doing it all anyways so $5 is not bad.
BAKFLIP PROP ROD (2)-$23.96- same as before... preventative part of project.
BAKFLIP/RX2 FLAT RAIL SEAL- $15.98 Runs down the sides of the truck bed it takes the weight of the cover. It is fully compressed in some areas and tearing in others.
Order Total: $77.47

Totally worth the initial $850+ that they cost 11 years ago

 

I can probably just clear silicone the crack and they'll be just fine I think. Having them as a back up set is incase I have any issues with this set.

 

oh haha. I had stock leaves and a 1” block.

 

looks awesome! mind me asking what that cost from Adventure?

 

You wanna buy my stock ones i took
Off my 2015? Theyre still good no moisture

 

Thanks buddy. Just the canopy it self was around 5k I don't remember the exact number.

 

Did the "These fender flares aint goin anywhere" mod. Shoutout to @Ripcord 's build thread for the write up on how to do it

 

Where’d you get the mount above the ac controls?

This with some ram mounts. It was the first mod I did for a strong phone or anything mount.

 

What tail lights are those?

 

OP mentioned he got the taillights from A1 auto

 

Dang sure ain’t going nowhere

 

Paid the mofo off. Merry Christmas to me!
