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

Mahalo!

 

Changed my fluids for 60K. Got to go up to my brothers automotive school and stay in the warm while doing it which was nice. I also go to use his awesome tool set .

 

Changed my Sig. Does that count? LOL

 

If i remember correctly they were the 18x18 sized ones.

 

A whole lot of AWESOMENESS

 

Today I finished removing the emblems/badges and the mud flaps. I also completed the Pop & Lock powered tailgate lock thanks to the write up here on TW. My wife says the truck looks naked now. I got some more new stuff coming in the mail...it just doesn't stop does it.

BEFORE


AFTER


Pop & Lock

 

I finished my wheels and rear bumper today. I also installed some pleather seat covers, and vent shades. My favorite of them all is the custom door handle...

 

Isn't paracord a wonderful thing.....I just wrapped my new 458 SOCOM aluminum handguard tube with black cord last night. Feels so much better, not freezing or scalding your hands, not to mention the anti-slip surface now.

 

Yes sir...it has endless uses. Thats why I keep it in my truck, home, and every pack I have. I seen a handguard wrapped in it once...I may have to give it a try since a new handguard isn't in my budget right now.

 

took it wheeling and discovered i have to trim my lower fender and fiberglass is a requirement now.... tooo much up travel

 

Installed an OEM bed mat and extender.

 

Good looking truck...what size tires are those?

 

Did you buy the prototype Demello bumper ?

 

thanks, watch my build thread for some more changes

33x12.5x17

it was the prototype its the production bumper now

 

did they widen the points of the bumper to align with the fender flares ?

 

i think they look to match, wont matter soon though, im at the point where i need fiberglass fenders i just travel up sooo much now lol

 

Did you take out your bump stop or is the tire just big enough to rub real bad oh and I guess your not runing your sway bar. I'm looking at getting glass fenders to but haven't decided yet. So what's giving you so much up travel?

 

bump stop is still there i think lol (now you have me worried i should check tomorrow in the morning

i am running no sway bar, i have Icon UCA's and yes its possible its just my tires are they large, but from what i can tell i have an abnormal amount of up travel but may be normal just seems odd

it may due to the fact im running SAW's with eibach coils so the compression isnt too high, i have it set to to level the truck out

i also noticed your running a 6" kit, which typically isnt as capable as a 3" kit, not saying it cant do the same, but there are some limiting factors, theres a really good flame thread here somewhere that explains its really well though

 

I meant I think the widened the points to meet the outside of the fender flare

 

Getting good flex in the front! Mine doesn't seem to stuff so easily. Looks good.
