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

Applied two coats of Raptor bed liner to the shell this morning. Used wax/degreaser then adhesive promotor before applying the first coat. Masking seemed to take forever - but was worth it in the end. Great product - sprayed very nicely with the provided air gun at 47-50psi. First coat was covered well - second coat was more to blend and get the tone more of a matte finish.

I’ll update this post Monday when she’s back on the truck.

 

Might as well do the whole truck while you’re in there

 

A thing.
Did find some spider's
Not done.
More pics and info soon.

 

Finally got around installing my body armor bumper and warn winch

 

Finally gave it a spring cleanup.

 

Also gave it a wash. Let the damn rain give it a free rinse.

 

I recommend tightening them every couple months like it says on their website because the bolts will fall out which has happened to me twice and I had to get replacements which weren't cheap. They weren't like expensive but more than you should pay for it.

 

Finally installed my Caliraised rock sliders

 

Thanks for the heads up, I will make sure to check them regularly. I did start out putting red loctite on them, so I’m interested to see if I have the same issue.

 

its more so the rear ones that have issues. I feel like some of the bolts weren't long enough so I ended up replacing them with longer ones and haven't had issues with those but I have noticed they still loosen up a bit. Also I should mention I have to drive down a wash boarded road every day so that doesn't help anything.

 

What degree are those?

 

Replaced the passenger CV Axle with my trail spare. Now gotta rebuild this one.

 

Did a thing, still not done and no more spider's.

All new lower control arm adjusters, CV axles, wheel bearings, and upper control arms all done. Need to install the brakes, and torque everything.

 

I wonder at what point double shear gusset the coil bucket becomes necessary
looks like that's about the only thing it's missing

what kind of bumpstop spacer is that and why'd you get it?

 

Stock with the DK spacer.
Came with the LCAs.

 

is that mid travel?
looks like it might be 1/4 spacer

probably helps prevent big tire from hitting the tub
supposedly measurement = doubling effect, aka 1/4 spacer = 1/2" reduction
have you noticed any issues at end of compression such as on or off road driving?

 

Yes, MT, and super flexy.
Does great at Moab.

 

not mine but worth posting

Back on the truck…. I’m glad I went with the black.

 

That looks really good
I’m about to try roll on Monstaliner on an aluminum contractor cap, hope it comes out decent
