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

Installed the Clazzio leather seat covers. It took some finessing to make it fit. Very happy with the results.

Installed the Wilco prerunner tiregate this weekend. Not gonna lie, the install was a pain in the ass, confusing instructions, missing/wrong hardware, and VERY tight tolerances. We had to go to the hardware store (only once though, not our first install), needed to chop off a bit of the bed composite, and engaged in a fairly uncomfortable amount of bending, prying and hammering of our bed AND the tiregate to get things to eventually line up.
But damn, does it look amazing! With every glimpse we get of Buddy's ass while coming out of the store, or peeping through the blinds in our front room, a little bit more of the install experience is forgotten and we're left with only with that giddy feeling they call love. And now we get to see if it holds up to our abuse
A few other recent upgrades we're excited to test out are the Alpharex tail lights (may or may not be experiencing hyperflashing, depending on when you ask) some sweet bed stiffeners from a local guy and our new 35 in Maxxis Razr ATs (which did not clear quite as well as we'd hoped). The next few months are lookin' busy!

 

i wonder if they have a straight vertical tire model and if anyone would add privacy to the bed somehow

like even an extendable curtain at minimum

sometimes it’s convenient out of laziness to leave random cheap shit in the bed acting like storage which, if visible to the outside, is more likely to get stolen


nvm I see they have a vertical model with solid panel.
holy shit, $2100

vs swingout addition parts kit $600

 

Damn that’s nice, mind if I ask what that set you back? Still interested in the soft too, but curious cause this is nice!! The dogs would love that see through top!

 

Care to share some of that info on the heim outer tie rods?

 

Yeah, of course. Here is the link and for tacomas the tolerance is 16mm

Thank you sir, much appreciated!

 

Man I love this forum. My electronics would tick off then back on for a millisecond. Battery and starter were good. Alternator looked like it needed some attention at 130,000 miles. Forum had some great videos and tutorials

Got it knocked out in 2 hours. I need to invest in a breaker bar! I pulled the alternator out and reinstalled through the wheel-well.

 

Gave her a bath and then played some tunes

 

Drove 600+ miles yesterday to Grand Junction Colorado- it is 7:00 am Monday 14 March 2022 - having the suspension Wizards at Alcan Spring work they’re magic.

installation of new custom leaf packs and archive garage hammer hangers, HC cross bar, and u bolt flip kit -

 

That’s why I built my own for a fraction of the cost lol

 

Congrats! I only have about half a year till I can say the same.

 

Congrats! Let the fun mods begin!

 

Finished writing up my drawer/sleeping platform build thread (find it here) and shared it to the megathread on this topic (find that here).

 

Weird, my alt is still good after 150k. Knock on wood. It's the tow package one though. Heard those are pretty bullet proof

 

Yeah mine has the tow package. Might just be my Irish luck? Ha!
