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

I just got it put on tonight, so I don't have much experience with it so far. I like the way it looks, though. Haha. You can get em for around $500, but I was kinda in a hurry and didn't wanna wait to get it next weekend so I got it from Amazon for $550. Paid an extra $3.99 to get it here next day (Amazon Prime perk). It was in the low 50s when I put it on, and the canvas was REALLY tight. The windows didn't wanna go in right, and it got dark on me so I couldn't see what I was doin, so I just left them off until I can get to em in the daylight.

 

Can't justify the $$ for one... maybe the auto hobby shop has one....

 

Wanna see some more pics in the daylight as you finish it up. I want to see what it looks like before I get one.

 

Will do. It'll be at least Tuesday before I"ll be able to get the windows on. But I'll take some pics as soon as I do.

 

Do you have a 10 gal or larger air compressor? I do since I try to do all my own maintenance and it comes in handy. If you do, Wal-Mart has Stanley impacts for around $50 or so I think. I've had one of those about 7 years now. Or an electric impact. Might be worth investing in one for more projects, or if you need to change a tire.

 

No air compressor, but might have to add one to my list of nice things to have. I just do the tires the old fashioned way

 

Trimmed the 1/2" bolts, drilled for a lock, ran over it with a die. Threadlocker on all the bolts. Now all I need is a handle isolator. Cost about 5$ I think.



Also bolted my compressor and tank into my bed box, it's been flopping around inside there since I got it, finally fixed.

 

Installed one of my home security systems in my truck. Programmed to dismember.

 

Nice looking GSD!

 

Thanks, Best dog I ever had.

 

installed my Optilux fog lights. Going to wire them up tomorrow

 

They do come in handy. I have an air ratchet too for when I don't want to deal with the back and forth of a manual ratchet, or I'm in a hurry.

 

Just realized this is the 2nd gen thread....oops. sorry guys

 

New headlights and detailed!

 

Brackets look good man, I made my own set also

 

Installed Hella 500FF's courtesy of how to thread attached:

Here are some pics to go with it.

 

Thanks!
Yours look better hah, nice work! How much did you spend on yours?

 

If it works, dont matter how it looks.

It didnt cost anything but 30min of my time . I used some 3x3/16, pie cut and re welded it on the back side so its not seen, found some 1/2 carrage bolts and plasma cut some squares for them.

 

x2!

love gsd!

 

that looks so clean man, great looking truck
