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

Won't setting the park brake several times accomplish the same thing but much easier?

 

Yes

and it sounds like you may have turned that too many clicks. Can you hear your brakes dragging while driving now?

 

No sounds or smell of hot brakes. The last truck I owned that had drum brakes (in the 1990's) the adjuster never worked and I would adjust them manually with a brake spoon thru the slot on the brake backing plate. On the tacoma the slot is not too accesable and I wanted to inspect the shoe anyway so I pulled the drum.

 

I didn't get any warnings when I followed the link to the forum page, but I am always getting alarms from Imageshack.
It likely it not Imageshack, but the advertisers that they work with when you follow IS linked photos.

 

Installed Husky flaps for better tire clearance.

 

Can you post some pics of how it attaches to the truck?

 

It uses 4 of the 6 stock fastener locations - 3 screws and 1 clip. Notice the flap profile recedes away from the tire at the inboard edge - this allows my tire to clear at full lock.

 

Finally got pics of the mods from this past week.

1. 3" Procomp lift (courtesy of the dealership)! Has a bit of a reverse rake but much better than a forward rake. I love the ride. Not too stiff at all
2. 4X Innovations weld on sliders
3. Pioneer touchscreen head unit

 

Tinted my tail lights

 

Installed Bilestein 5100 on front set at 0", My front shocks were completely worn out....so even set at 0", it brought the front up at least 2 inches....

Will be doing the rear shocks next weekend.

 

Ok here we go, installed my set of relentless ifs and mid skids this morning, painted my front Toyota emblem black, and tried to paint the grill black but had a bad reaction with the adhesion promoter and base coat lol. Now it's textured black. Went wil my girl to a couple local trails and found two new ones. Terrain was a bit to much for my stock suspension and 245/75/16's blasted a rock with the skid and bent it, lost a center cap and riped a hole in the sidewall of one of the tires.
Overall I do have to say it was a fun day!

 

Finally was able to wash her today

PS iphone camera sux

 

Went to the park...

 

us too....10mile ride around the lake this morning

 

Washed mine.....again!

 

Washed and tire shine. Installed a few WeatherTech accessories.

 

Hey Colin, you need some of these



to make the Smurf complete.

 

Are those supposed to double as rock lights?

 

I cleaned the radiator fins and sprayed it black in anticipation of my 2012 grill crafts arrival.

 

I did the differential breather mod today.
