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

Changed the oil and replaced the driver side mirror.

 

Removed sway bar and also made a spare tire lol. Everyone said just keep the TPMS light on but I got new TPMS sensors with my tires and I want it to work. Not running a spare tire, had to improvise with a spare tire DIY since my year requires a spare tire TPMS.

 

Thats pretty funny,but it turns out the light.

 

Mounted the bed bars.

 

Ya long story short some models require 5 active TMPS sensors so the spare is monitored as well. In my case I’m not running a spare so this is my “spare”.

I coded the PVC pipe as the spare tire and all is well

 

Splice into the blue wire and chassis ground for relay trigger from the dome light connector. Blue wire is the dimming control from body ecu. Spst relay wont work as well due to how the body ecu controls dimming via voltage drop steps which is why i had to utilize a SSR

 

Favorite rear bumper.

Use the nano-banana model to create a 1/7 scale commercialized figure of the car in the illustration, in a realistic style and environment. Place the figure on a computer desk, using a circular transparent acrylic base without any text.
On the computer screen, display the Brush modeling process of the figure. Next to the computer screen, place a BANDAl-style toy packaging box printed with the original artwork.

Have fun with it

 

Some how I lost the two little bumpers that hold the gas door flush with the body, so replaced those.

 

Someone steal them?

 

I don't think so. Took the truck in last week to get annual rust proofing...day after noticed they were missing....could be a coincidence. Perhaps I lost once a long time ago and the last one was knocked out....There isn't much holding these things in.

 

Thanks for posting the part number for future reference.

 

Pretty cool

 

I did mine like this 4 or 5 years ago. I have not had the light on since then. PVC pipe for the win!

 

A work in progress

 

This weekend's project showed up. Remanned steering rack and OEM tie rod ends. Will finally get to install the warfab tie rod sleeves that have been sitting on my work bench since the group buy a couple years back.

 

How did you get a scale model of your truck??

Sorry can’t read I misunderstood. Thanks
