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

Hopefully you bought an extra bumper and set of wheels to send to me

 

I bought mine at the dealer's parts counter. May want to call ahead with your paint code and make sure it's in stock. The paint pen is color on one end, and clear coat on the other end.

That bumper didn't do much for the tailgate. Wonder if it didn't have the center cutout for the license plate, things may have turned out differently. At least the bumper kept the bedsides from getting damaged.

 

No it was a merc SUV so the hood was above the bumper, the steel bumper took out the radiator. This was from a standstill about 5 feet behind me, she must have punched it really hard. When she pushed in the tailgate it pulled in the bedsides.

 

Test fitted my RTT to the bed rack & the awning to the RTT





I added awning track to three sides of the RTT so I can run awning from sides or rear.

 

Checked hood and roof for hail damage, got lucky though, not a dent!

 

Took her to the car wash and got rid of about 10 pounds of mud and rock.
Bought some hose to do the diff breather.

Hope to derp the wheels and touch up as I await my bed rack coming in

 

Just finished installing new wet okoles yay!

 

Got my high clearance bumper and skids installed. Still gotta add in the reverse lights and install a better latch for the swing away but so happy with the new bumper. No pics of skids yet.

 

Installed an Lce lightweight crank pulley. Read a few posts from the 4cyk guys and had noting but great reviews but didn't seem to do much for the 3.4. It does however rev a bit quicker so I see where that comes into play. But that's about it. Up next is a set of headers. I'll post up again when they are installed.

 

pst.... 04 isn't a 2nd gen..... sorry ;-)

 

Winch complete, controller installed today, came out nice. Does not even show up from a few feet away.



Close up

 

Yesterday brought home the framing materials for my new garage.

 

How many lbs is the trailer and load?

Matt

 

Best guess is little over 3k combined the trailer is 18ft and weights about 2600 empty.

 

Looks great. Which winch do you have in there?

 

Thank you for that....

 

Can't wait to get the new bumper from Billy!! Being this chic hit me basically kept driving through me and bent the shit out of the factory bumper which also caused my entire passenger side panel to bend and busted taillight.

 

On the way!! Bumper isn't costing a dime to me, her insurance had to replace the factory one costing about the same as Billys bumper, so I went the smart route and having him fabricate one up for me. Wheels that came out of my pocket and have been waiting 3 months for them to come back into stock from Vin.

 

I could stop by and pick that bumper up from you when you get it and model it on my truck for you.

 

Sounds great!! LOL Or you could stop by and Ill model my truck with the bumper for you and you can send it to your buddies showing them what you just had put on your truck.
