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

What's the price nowadays...

 

I paid $129.99

 

The only bad thing about RainX other than the cost is it kind of leaves that slight film on your windows which is H**L to get off to get them crystal clear. Sure works like Magic in the rain though, most time no wipers even needed.

 

White gas works pretty good, just be carefull to keep it off you clear coat lol

 

They make a 2 in 1 cleaner now (rainx) and its not too filmy for the first couple months, and then i guess it starts wearing off in spots or somethin but i just started doin it every couple months and its pretty good.

 

Brute Force Fab Bumper came in today. Dropped off to have it Line-X'd. Can't wait to install.

 

Nice! Can't wait to see how it came out. Did you also get a winch?

 

Got my truck back for the crank seal yesterday. And of course today I hear the squeaky rear brakes. What's the TSB #?

 

Installed Muth Signal Mirrors. These are mirrors that replace the mirrors in the housings.

The door panel and the mirror housing had to be removed. It was really easy to do this.


The old mirror just pops out when pried from the bottom.
The direction said to run the new signal wire beside the mirror control wire harness, which is a little rubber tube. I just pocked the signal wire through the tub. You can see the little tub here with the 3 mirror control wirs and the two signal wires.


The direction then said to run the wire along the door, through the rubber boot that holds the wire harness between the door and the frame, then run it under the dash, and then find the correct wire behind the fuss box and splice. No need. There is a signal wire already in the door. The mirror control wire has three wires in the male plug. The female plug--which is attached to the door--has five wires. The three wires at the front of the plug control the mirror tilting. The two wires at the back of the plug are the positive and negative turn signal wires. Here you can see the plug with the signal wire zip tied.


Here is where I spliced the new signal wires into the signal wires in the wiring harness.


Here the results.

 

TSB 0236-12

 

Not yet. Work in progress. ..

 

I saw it for $159.99 a few months ago but I had to pay $189.99 (regular $219.99).

 

Very nice!! They look great!!

 

I made the appointment to have the 3" lift on my truck next week..

 

I have a cross box, not a job box. If I were you, I would bolt the box to the rail system. Probably four of the largest that will fit, since it's a heavier style box. Cut spacers to put inbetween to stop the sides from bowing. Then just ratchet the bottom if it's not secure enough.

 

cleaned the hell outa the outside, frame included, wired in my Blue Sea as well as my under-hood lights by BeeRadd, awesome product he's got, highly recommend!!!!!

 

Mocked up my retrofit:

 

This morning I finally got the Taco registered, derped the badges, turned off the seatbelt chime, and unplugged the door ajar wiring harness, and requested a quote to have my front side windows tinted to match OEM rear window tints.
