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

Nice job. I have a plain Jane 09 and I'm considering the same upgrade. Cost is an issue right now but hopefully the cash comes back so I can do this.

 

They are 4.3" with Spidertrax 1.25" spacers. I'm a little over a half inch clearance at full lock, but I plan on taking a grinder to it today to smooth out the cuts. I will keep that in mind how far you went back in case I need too cut more when I get a bigger lift and larger tires.

 

Howzit Bra...Unfortunately, it was a small fortune....lol The dealership wouldn't ship to Hawaii/Alaska, so I had them shipped to my Mom's in Florida and then she sent them to me. Yeah...for some reason Hawaii/Alaska aren't worth the hassle of shipping to. I guess we aren't part of the states or most sellers are just to lazy to ask for the extra money and hassle of shipping...

 

Did you get the newer clockspring?

 

Test fit my North Face bags for our trip to Colorado next month.

They are just filled about half way with some towels. They will expand to almost twice that size when loaded.










GSC 31GAL Waterproof Tubs in the bed for incidentals.

Finally got a clean set of rails in, mounted and took a couple subpar phone pics.

 

Wow. Awesome. Would love some more info on this. Cost, parts needed, where you sourced the wheel. I would love to do the same thing.

 

Not today but broke it and then fixed it..... drive shaft issues suck big time

 

just wondering if yo switched the front ones? that flap that you see on the passenger seat should be on the driver seat for the airbag that is in the seat side. you should see a small airbag decal stitched on the stock seat cover i think(if you have them)
i've got the same ones w/o that carhart decal.

 

Tax return haha

Yups

Did a simple write up, it's on the 2nd Gen section. As for the price not gonna lie, it'll cost you.

I went with everything OEM.

 

Here you go.

 

I don't have the side or seat airbags.

Optional in 08, standard in 09+
But yeah I did notice afterwards that if I had the airbags they're have to be switched.

I have them too.

 

After I pay the state with the money I get back from the feds I'll be about $30 in my pocket. I don't like them to have my money. I worked for it, they didn't.

 

This! I only got about $160 back between fed and state. I like the money that I worked for paid to me up front. No short-term, interest-free loans to the gov't from me.

I was tired of when I turned on my truck the musty smell that would come out for 5-15 seconds so i decided to cleaned out the AC ducts, intake and all the vents. The smell is a little over powering from the cleaner, but at least it smells like one of those vent clips; plus I know it'll fade over time.

Also took an air hose to my cab filter to clean out the dirt and leaves in it. Less than 6k on it and already needed cleaning, stupid AZ weather.

 

done this.. used three inch aluminum pipe and works like a charm. figured the throttle body is three inches.. so using 4 inch tubing was a little over kill.

 

Yea I was suppose to buy it as well and never did...I have the steering wheel controls and airbag swapped that was like 2 years ago haha

 

Installed wheel spacers and fog lights






Fogs only
