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

installed a shift knob out of a Mazda 6 I think it was? almost looks like the newer Taco knobs with the silver strip down the center. But it's smaller and the "leather" material is split down the middle... not sure that I like it... still on the search for that "perfect one", lol

not a very good pic, but get's the point across

 

it is pretty close

 

did this with mine today


but let my boss do this for 70 miles. lol

Whenever I wash my truck, I like to drive up on those little plastic oil change ramps and shoot it down. Just the front tires. It helps all the water drain out from the frame and bed too. One other major benefit to using the ramps is that the water hose does not get stuck under the tires

 

Made some sliders for my truck this last wknd. I incorporated the factory running boards for on the top to still act as a step. Also added some weather tech mats for the front and weather tech window guards for the front driver and passenger side.

 

nice work! great idea.

 

Thanx.

 

x2!

 

Pulled my drive shaft apart last night to replace the U-Joints and Center Support (Carrier) Bearing. Then dropped my female end of my slip yoke off at a local shop to have them add a 90 degree grease fitting to it. Then put it back together tomorrow.

 

pics!?

 

You welded onto your frame? I thought that was a no-no as it'll change the metal properties at that spot, and potentially cause strength issues.

but very nice design for the sliders!

 

the extent of what i will do for my tacoma today will be a wash and vacuum.

 

What do you think weld on sliders are welded to?

 

Washed her and left her home while I took a friend to dinner with the other car.

 

I was not aware that there were weld-on sliders.

 

Yup lol probably the most popular type

 

Well most of the brackets under our trucks are welded on and and cab mounts as well. Being a certified welder for over 18 years and knowing how to weld them on is a plus so I should be fine. Our frames can handle being welded on if it is done properly and by some one who knows how to weld. But thank You for being concerned.
