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

Cleaned up my new to me 17" sport rims. Put another coat of stripper on, and will clean off tomorrow. Also ordered the new shoes for them, Cooper Discoverer AT3's.

 

Damn... That sucks. F that. Did or does insurance cover something like that? I guess it should.

 

I don't wanna be Debbie Downer but isn't the load rating 300lbs for vehicular use ?

I had time to trim my front fiberglass to make room for the new Wranglers and install my new SCS black lugs. I have to replace 2 studs on my Spidertraxs sometime in the next 3 days.

I have a laundry list of stuff in do still....

 

Haha

I'm with everyone on your storage box, nice job man! I'd like to fab something up like that.

 

Rotated my tires and played with my MV50 super flow air compressor. After rotating my tires I decided to play around with the teraflex deflator and my MV50 compressor that i got for christmas. These things work great. Using the teraflex went from 40psi to 20psi in +/- 1 minute. Using the MV50 to inflate went to 40psi from 20psi in roughly 3 minutes. Thats pretty quick. Being able to inflate all for tires in a little under 15 minutes and deflating under 5 minutes is a pretty nice. These number are with 265/75r16s.

 

Ive had 2 Studs snapped in half while removing for tire install. They were not cross threaded its almosted like they seized? Im still trying to figure out how a grade 10 stud broke??? I order new ones from Spidertrax they come in a pack of 6 so i guess it happens often.

 

How would that change just because its on a drawer in a bed of a truck?

 

Cant wait to see the numbers on my cousins 33x12.50x15s. Cant wait to actually need it instead of taking up space in the tool box.

 

Minimum a grand, I had over $500 in material. And thats half what you see these for on-line if you do a search for truck bed storage drawers.

Don't think that'll matter, I won't get close to that anyway.

 

I had 2 studs break on a Bora spacer. Had to ship it back to MotorSports for free repair. They don't sell the studs. Same thing - I can't figure out how they broke. I've never rattled the lugs down - only hand torqued them.

 

could be his username..

 

1. Pulled off mudflaps

2. Installed kobalt toolbox purchased at Lowes
3. Did some wire cleanup under the dash
4. Installed light in new toolbox

 

Ordered Wheelers super bumps for the front, and some hub centric rings

 

One was with a 4 way and I think I might have put upward pressure causing the stud to snap. The other was at Discount Tire, both were while removing. I dabbed a little anti seize on the threadthis time before putting on the spline lugs then torqued to spec. Hopefully it doesnt happen again and if it does I have 4 spares lol

 

I like to spray mine with CRC dry moly. Doesn't lubricate it as much as moly lube, but will keep them from galling/seizing.

I'm gonna need to try this stuff out. Looks good.

 

That is nice!

 

I just installed Relentless Fab U-bolt flip and ToyTec 2.5* shims.

 

Removed decals. Removed front mudflaps. Washed, waxed.
