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

Thanks! The videos I watched didn’t make it clear. I’ll double check the manual if they mention it

 

Another better pic of the 34's pre-lift. Curious to see if 2" of lift prevents all the rubbing, but guessing I'll still need to do some cutting and chopping.

 

I love Vieques

 

Same with ours, dad dark red and mom normal golden. Mine has a white patch on the chest that was unique to only him in the litter.

 

Torqued my new moog upper control arms nicely at ride height (I know… I know… I’m on a budget right now). Put the truck back down and gave it a shake test

squeak… squeak.. squeak

 

evaluate it.

-mud flaps solution
-offset choice
-UCA’s
-alignment

hardest part with bigger tires is probably seeing if it needs JD Inner Fenders. Which probably comes with 35” and definitely 37”.

 

Took the tires off and now the truck waits for further inspection and more parts to be bought… what else do you see needing replacement/upgrade. I know the end links on both sides need it. I think I need to get new leaf springs and rear shock? Maybe just add-a-leaf and shocks?

 

Thanks again. I ended up buying the same stuff except I went with the KS 270 tweeters.

 

Installed 1320 Performance bed stiffeners and swapped out the taillights so the silver parts are instead black.

 

What Tail Light are those? They look A Lot better then the stock Tail Lights.

 

Sure here ya go:

They’re working so far so good.

 

i bought a slim fitting months ago, and lubed my front driveshaft today. 98k oh well, at least i finally did it.

i stored my lube gun like this in case of leakage

 

You need to be protecting that frame from rust. Hopefully it's not already too late

 

I have the OEM steering wheel from my 2013 just sitting on the shelf. I kept the audio controls though. Let me know if you’re interested.

 

i keep mine hung over the trashcan in my shop it drips and makes the worst mess everywhere. but somehow my 50+ year old gun of my grandfathers only gets gummy on the tip side and will sweat a bit on the threaded ends

 

On 885 coils with bilstein 5100 (2.25” lift). Also trying the moog control arms after having SPC.

the ride is pretty good, feels a lot different than the SPCs though. Steering felt kinda heavier

 

Made the last payment.

 

Oil change 39 today. Knocked it out pretty fast. Even the zerks were lined up pointing straight down when I parked. Easy peasey.
