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

Bent the other half of the lock washer for the inner tie rod. Put the boot and clamp on.

 

Not much for me today but added this.

 

What tire model/size are those. They look sick

 

I took my prinsu off today and I’m selling it to a friend. I’ll get the roof trim pieces from him whenever we meet up next. I’m digging the slick top.

 

She rolls out for a slow Tacoma I dirt dragged it and beat a 6.0 F250 this weekend.

 

Access cab BuiltRight mini molle panel installation.

 

Installed new bumpers, front and rear. Pictures coming soon.......

 

To avoid holes or adhesive, attach the light to stainless steel flat bar stock using said 3m tape. Then use rare earth magnets on the inside of the topper. I'm on my second light, and they stay put (even with hard wheeling mine never budges).

 

That’s a good idea. If this one dies I’ll have to do that.

 

I would love a butt dyno review of these when they are installed

 

Oh yeah.

 

What rear axle do you have now? Looks wide (and sweet).

 

Just did mine last night, and as someone who has never used a rivet gun, and using a manual one for this in positions where it was difficult to get leverage, I am def. jealous of the air powered one!

 

Just the plain Jane stock sr5 one. I have 0.5” spacers to help keep the tires off if the shocks and that’s it. It’s the aggressive wheel specs and lack of flares that make it seem wider than it is.

 

Those upside down rivets are tough with a manual gun. The first time I did that job in 2017 I left the gun hanging upside down overnight with a half pulled rivet. Seems like there could have been an easier way to attach the hood brackets.

 

2800 mile road trip. 9 states. Mountains. Sea. The old truck just takes it in stride. Realizing I hardly even take pics anymore. I did make up some Bam Beds for the trip, and they worked out great. Dog is always appreciative. wore him out with a 13 mile hike in the White Mtns one day. Tacoma FTW

 

^^^ Beautiful! The scenery, the truck, and, of course, your best friend!

Because my summer truck fun (PS pump, alternator, water pump, and fan clutch replaced... EDIT: AND rear drums!) just wasn't quite done...



On the plus side, it sounds really nice AND was probably one of the overall easiest jobs I've ever done on a vehicle! So, very happy!

 

What's the part number on the exhaust?

 

It is

$323 Dynomax 39447 Exhaust System Kit for Toyota Tacoma

Dynomax 39447

Did have to cut 13" off the straight pipe but otherwise it bolted right up. The only thing that kinda bugs me is that the very back of the tail pipe sits close to the rear leaf spring area... maybe an 1" apart...

Some folks seem to not like the noise but I think it sounds pretty good. Quiet at idle and cruising but a little throaty when getting on it.

 

How much that that cost you all in?
