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

may buy a prinsu.. what’s your opinion?

 

Think thats a Tundra

 

Access cab Prinsu are fun to install..... drill 12 holes in your roof

 

Upon further inspection, I believe you're right. The tail lights just say "Ford" to me.

 

Martin off-road racks are basically the same thing but cheaper so give those a look. I liked it though, super functional.

 

New battery. X2Power group 27F. $365 after core refund.

want to get a voltage booster soon too

 

That silver Ford is a Tundra.

 

jealous! I cant find anything remotely similar near me

 

I've been working on adapting https://gfxgauge.com/ (which I started working on a few years ago for my STI) for use in my Tacoma. Here’s where it’s at as of today:



The standard OBD-II PIDs work, but I’ve been unsuccessful in getting the ECU to return transmission temp values using any of the custom PID codes I’ve found so far. I’ve read that some people have issues getting it to work on other devices (ScanGauge etc.) so I’m not sure if the problem is with my truck or gfxgauge, but I’m going to keep trying!

 

Got both rear axel seals, bearings and new shoes on the rear end today. $787

New springs go on tomorrow. Pics to follow.

 

Installed a 1” Toytec body lift to make room for my AWD FJ cruiser transfer case and Northwest Fab crawl box. Sealed that all up last night so it’s ready to test fit in the truck now



Came up with a quick solution to take care of the rear bumper gap using some 1” aluminum spacers and longer bolts.

Finally able to get Rugged Trails/Baja wheels I picked up awhile back to powder coaters and picked them back up today. Previously painted cement gray and one bought off member here that was kinda beat up, had them redone in flat black. Will get them on soon as I can.

 

Cleaned up my Black Beauty and then noticed she just turned over 419,000 miles.

 

You are probably the only dude in texas with a DTF bumper.. if you consider selling that rig I’ll buy the bumper..

 

Thanks for the offer, but im taking this truck to the grave with me if at all possible lol

 

Thanks for the tip! I just did the same thing. Came out great! Now as long as stays put I'll be a happy camper! Lol!

 

Cold Air Intake Horsepower increase, up for debate, but the CIA possumpower increase is undeniable.

 

Grille and headlight change.

 

New headlight bulbs and finished wiring my power/heated mirrors.
