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

Will do. I don't have any immediate need to head over that way and it's about 90 minutes round trip, so I'll definitely call before heading over. If I can shake loose a couple of hours later this week I'll find some excuse to head over there if they are in stock.

Edit: Just the display model in store. Sorry.

 

story of my life lol

 

I wonder if I can find something similar online? (not from HF)

Jeg's has one, also not in stock

That is somewhat helpful, My horns are vintage Cadillac and the brackets are not as accommodating as yours seem to be. I am heading down to a buds shop after lunch to see what I can do to modify them for a proper fit. At this point, I will either mount where yours are or on the cross member below that location. Thanks for reaching out, most helpful.

 

Drove it to Harbor Freight (no luck).
Took a ride to my local dealer and had him check out some part numbers for a wire harness that I found online.
Ordering it in a couple days after I do a little more research.

Test fit the Bussmann relay/fuse block again, I bought screws so now it's secured to the Powertray's panel. Looks like there is enough room under it that I can mount an ARB single compressor.

 

Maybe this one at Home Depot?

or this:

Jeg's 6-ton, not a-frame:

Maybe there is a design issue where the a-frames were breaking so all of them have been discontinued?

 

Ordered new headlights from Tacomabeast and awaiting there arrival. Here’s some off road porn for ya

 

Checked my maintenance log and realized the last time I changed my oil was Oct 2019. Only driven about 4k miles in the last two years so the oil wasn't terrible but still needed to be changed. Mobile 1 synthetic and a new filter and good to go.

 

I went 18 months once on my 3rd gen but only drove it 2100 miles. Just doesn't "feel" right going that long. I am at 16 months on my 2008 but that is with 3,700 miles using Mobil1 synthetic. Will change it before it reaches 4,000 miles.

 

Thx for the kind words my friend

 

Putting together my Martin Off-road rack! Can’t wait to mount it tomorrow.

 

Not today but tomorrow doing alittle end of the year maintenance. Replacing the Transmission Output Shaft seal, noticed it was leaking alittle when i was under the truck, changing the diff gear oil and replacing the shocks/coils. I bought a set of take offs from a 2015 OR a few years ago from a buddy. They have less than 5k on them. I would love to upgrade the shocks but my budget won't allow it.

 

Installed my new used OE SR5 chrome bumper w/OE class lll trailer hitch today.

While on the lookout for a used class three hitch for my 12 pre-runner. I ran across an almost new condition SR5 chrome bumper with OE class three hitch attached for $65.

It’s been on sawhorses in the yard for about a month now. ok, ok, three months!

Had a bit of time so I grabbed it up polished Chrome and touched up the paint on the hitch and she is now ready to pull baby!

And I should add that I now have a Chrome SR5 Bumper that has a small ding in it. Very repairable if someone near Austin has a need.

 

Found them for cheap online, I'm pretty certain they're called Chevy rallye wheels that i painted gunmetal. 16x7 +0 so I have to run spacers for them to clear the front brakes. Luckily the truck came with a set of wheel spacers and I dig the look!

 

Releasing 35 seat spacer kits Saturday 1/1/2022 (2nd & 3rd gen Taco/FJ Cruiser) for those interested

 

What is the cost for two sets? And what is their thickness?

 

They are 1", come with grade 10.9 zinc coated longer flange bolts, an illustrated instruction sheet and free Priority box shipping. 1 kit (1 seat) is $40. 2 kits (2 seats) is $70. Shipping alone is nearly $10. I have sold around 2300 kits. I sell on facebook and ebay. I usually sell 70 kits per month but, due to some cnc machine cpu upgrading, I will only sell 35 pair per month through February. I usually don't post in this forum. Just did it to let those that have inquired know they will be selling Saturday.

 

I need to do that on my newer setup. Shits fried. Only 3/5 speeds work now.

 

its likely your shocks extend all the way. Even with mid travel you will want limit straps. Keep it from fully extending. I get the same thing on mine.

 

This looks sick! I just ordered my own set and I'll be installing this mod when it comes in tomorrow!
