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

Mine doesn't have the attachment for that hole, but I just zip tied it up. Should be ok for now

 

Same here. Works great all the time.

 

Curious to everyone who’s repainted their roof black what paint did you use? I’m not looking to use bedliner I feel it Gives a different feel than I want

 

Did your silver paint job go white?

 

Back to 4x4, replaced with oem…hopefully napa doesn’t give me any shit for my spare.

 

Wo wo wo wowwww no context? What happened

 

Yeah I mean it’s rhythmic. Like it really feels like a wheel out of balance. Steering shaft is old which contributes to some sloppiness I’m sure but I think the shake is wheel/axle related

 

No white paint job went big scratched and patina

 

Mine is rhythmic too but I’ve tried getting balanced and aligned to no success. I’m replacing cvs to hopefully cure it

 

Hmmm is yours a vibe or a shake? Mines a shake like the wheels out of balance. If you have a pulsating vibe have you replaced your needle bearing? I have a pulsating vibe at 50 as well and I ordered the ecgs bushing to hopefully solve that particular problem

 

It’s a vibe, in the bad sense lol. I haven’t replaced my needle bearing I didn’t even think of that. It’s kinda weird because it’s sort of a hum too you can feel through the floor

 

Yeah that’s exactly what mine is. Vibration/hum once per second in the floor at 50. Might be worth looking into. There’s an ecgs bushing to replace the needle bearings with a stronger style bushing

 

That’s what mine does exactly. I looked into that replacement though and from what I gathered from others they said that’s not what I need

 

My wheel was pinned in a hole and you have one guy telling me driver and another telling me passenger

 

I’m hoping it’s what I need! If not, at least I’ve fixed a known weak point on a 119k mile 10 year old New England truck haha

 

I just remembered. I think the common test is to put it in 4wd high and see if the noise goes away (but obviously don’t try to turn in 4wd on dry pavement). Iirc if the noise goes away in 4 high it’s likely your needle bearing

 

Damn that sucks! Sounds like a good time tho! Cheers!

 

You can use a zip tie to 'train' the cable to go a certain direction so it doesn't pinch. It worked for me and I left the zip tie on.

 

It is the steel cable getting pinched. It'll eventually chew it up and will require replacing.
