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

Cleaned the engine bay after 20 years on my 2005 TRD.

 

I definitely misread your oil filter as Poutine.

 

Now I want some poutine.

 

Waiting on hubs.
Bought new axles, front rotors, strut mounts, and upper control arms.

 

looks good, please provide a link.

 

Haa! I asked him the same thing the other day. I hope you get his attention....

 

Just ordered these in a 35x12.5R17

 

I have the same tires in the same size and I’m going on year 5 with them. Badass tires!

 

Wow 5 yrs on an MT?!?

 

I've been running these in a 285 for about 3 yrs and will be stepping up to 315s this year. Really good tires.

 

Eibach Pro Stage 2 kit front and rear w/1" rear block installed after 150k miles on oem suspension (1.75"). New Wildpeaks (265/75/16). Truck rides brand new again. Putting new oem headlights in this weekend too. I appreciate all the advice tacomaworld provides for these types of decisions.

 

Another product i recommend and have used is this. Go over all the door seals and weather stripping once a year. It actually lasts unlike the cheap cans of silicone spray.. And a tube will last a long time. Only needed a new one after 10 years.
Great for preventing the seals from sticking to the door frame during freezing weather.
Just don't confuse it with toothpaste

Changed out the carrier bearing and UJoints. Went with Spicer for both. Took about 3hrs. The original bearing had to much play- lowered the new bearing with OME kit to adjust angle with lift. Job was a-lot easier than I thought it was going to be. Index everything so it goes back in exactly as it came out and you’ll be fine. Smooth down the road and on leaning into it a bit from full stop. Ride just keeps getting better.

 

Anyone have recommendations for aftermarket fog lights? I have the stock housings with LED bulbs and have been wanting a proper LED setup.

Lol. Cheers.

 

Much obliged, good sirs.

 

Had the original master cylinder leak into the vacuum booster, lost most of my brakes coming off the highway. E brake to the rescue!

Replaced both of those and the firewall gasket over the last few days after work, did a solo bleed job that worked pretty well but I'll get a buddy to finish it up. Feels SLIGHTLY mushy.

Had never bench bled a master cylinder, learn something new every week.
