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

that's a maul

 

Installed a set of Hella 700's. I tied them into the high beams using an add-a-circuit and the included Hella wiring harness. I mounted them using a light bar NHCrewcab2008 fabbed up for me back in September.

They work fantastic, though I'll probably upgrade them with a set of 100W bulbs like I did with the 500's on my old Jeep. They're a necessity for me, as I map wilderness waterways for work, so over 90% of my miles are dark gravel roads.

 

I ordered new shocks front and rear..Bilstien 5100's.
Replaced the fuse for the horn and hazard lights.
Replaced the gear indicator light bulb that's below the shifter for the automatic transmission.
Fixed the lock on my camper shell.
Wired up the third brake light on the camper shell.
Made new rubber cup holder things for the center console out of some material I bought at OSH.

 

took her for her first trip out! barely 300km on the odo. REALLY impressed with the ALSD. I was expecting to have to jump out and do the yellow wire mod but she pulled through every time i got stuck. wish i took more pics.

 

Looks like a good place to pop a cherry

 

Nice work, and that sounds like a fun job to have.

 

Welcome

Where on the Island is that ?

 

malahat/shawnigan area

 

Thanks! And yeah, it's a pretty good deal

 

In cab winch controls mounted. Wiring next weekend.

 

Installed 5100's on all four corners and set front to .85 to level the truck out then gave it a bath. I have to say the 5100's a big ride improvement over the stock prerunner Tokico's.

 

Nice

 

It looks sick! Where'd you get that?

 

I cleaned my battery today

 

Installed my Mega Warrior

 

Mounted my scanner



And put on new rain-x latitude wiper blades. Got to test them today. Love them!

 

I finally installed my CB, a

$65 uniden PRO520XL pro series 40-channel CB radio. compact design. ANL switch and PA/CB switch. 7 watts of audio output and instant emergency channel 9. - black

uniden PRO520XL with 4' firestik. It only took 4 days and about a pint of blood loss, but it's done. For anyone about to install a CB, when you think the coax cable is screwed in tight enough on both ends, try tightening it a little bit more.

The actual install and all the routing of cables only took about an hour or two. Three days and 3 coax cables were spent trying to figure out why the SWR meter was showing a short.

 

Got it on ebay. The best offer I could get them to take was 185.00
