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

Just a little sneak peak

 

You do realize that post you quoted was from 2008.... right?

 

Hey resq330, how do you like your shift knob so far? I just bought one from sick speed and while the ball feels a little small, I really hate how the my fingers feel the lock nut thingy underneath.

 

is there someway to mount something like thet on my ap plate bumper i cant believe somebody hasnt done this before??? maybe a reason or just bought a bumber with a built in tire carrier already like i shouldve done

 

Gylar - I really like it! Been wanting one for a while. I don't think the ball feels small at all. Large if anything! I guess because I've had a hurt T-handle shifter in the past, I'm used to feeling the lock nut. No problems for me. You could maybe cover it with black electrical tape or something?

 

I didn't use the nut. Just some red loctite. Didn't like the look of that nut. Hasn't moved at all. Just an idea if you don't want to use the nut.

 

Good idea...thanks!

 

Bed mat mod. Ordered PT-904-35070-CC for center cap mod.

 

Finally got around to installing Cruise Control on my 2009 (not-prewired) Taco. Now it's time for a cold one

 

These ones?

 

Had my 5100's and Icon Add-A-Leaf that I got from Down South Motorsports put on.

Work tells me I have to work some OT this weekend and next weekend and I couldn't wait to do the install myself, so I took it to the local aftermarket shop... 250 +5 dollars cash to the service guy for alignment and install...

 

this made me laugh, thanks

 

Just curious, did you tip the service guy $5? A 2% tip?

 

Tire carrier?

Your truck will be in need of a shackle flip soon.

 

Yeah that's them. Initially saw them here on a post with pics of a new guys truck, wanted them every since, due to arrive next week. for some reason they really caught my eye, just something a little different. Bought my new silver DCSB earlier this year applied Klasse cleaner/sealant right away, have added oem running boards, exhaust tips, bed mat mod, weathertechs, and now the center caps. I have off road so sounds like I will have to trim, curious why/how much too long. I had Masterlock but am being refunded- will do hose clamp mod tomorrow. Plan on window tinting, may consider mirror mod.

 

Let her rest in the driveway today. The sun is out so I rode my motorcyle to work today.

 

I was at the local dealer picking up some stuff and one of the salesman walked up from behind the truck as I was getting in, and he was just staring at my truck as he slowly walked around it for a good 20 seconds; finally I gave a little wave so he'd realize I was in it. He waved back and kept staring at the truck as he walked in the building.

It was weird. Who stares at a base tacoma with street tires and steelies when the lot has a dozen SR5/TRD beauties 2 rows over? When I got home I gave it once-over to make sure I didn't have something falling off but all was well.

I doubt it could have been the original owner, he/she lived in NH.

 

Installed this today, still need to adjust a bit.

 

Nice! Didn't know they are in production already.
