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

Thanks man! Ya this is my dd thinking of getting the clay bar and wax done soon

 

If you're straped for time, just do a section at a time. Just remember, once you clay the paint, it'll be stripped of everything but the clear coat. You'll need to put a coat of wax on to protect it from the elements. Also, if you drop the clay on the ground, it's finished. It'll pick up a bunch of dirt and if you use it, it'll just grind into the paint.

 

I'm gonna go to a local place in town heard good things about them. Don't have much time. I just take it to the automatic car washes prolly not the best

 

SOA right now, but SUA very soon.

 

Nice! With SUA I have so much up travel that I can use all 4", but I have yet to try it out so I don't know if it will be too rough when I touch the bumps or not. I I have to I can adjust them shorter.

With the Pelfreybilt SOA setup they are running 4" bumps set at 2.5". Not sure what the LT guys are running though.

 

Glad to help! Yep, I am all about helping when I can. Lol, overspray can be a mofo. With dip, and bit of goo gone takes it off with little effort.

Thanks! I'm still learning, but am quite addicted

With most colors, I would not paint match, as it would draw too much attention, but it looks fantastic on MG!

If you are a detail spray guy, I HIGHLY recommend you give Adams a shot. Its soooo much better than the Meguiars. You may also enjoy the Waterless Wash.

Nothing done to mine today, but I did go get her bedmate out of storage

Changed oil, rotated tires, and moved my hi lift mounts to the passenger side bed rail in readiness for the new 60". I also worked on some mounts for my maxtrax but I need some more hardware before I can complete it.

 

I agree. Usually, body coloring things like headlights looks a little off. However, I think it might work well with this dark gray. Best way to find out is to try.

I've been a long time user of Meguiars (their home office is close to where I live, and have been there for training seminars), but I am certainly willing to give others a shot. I'll give them a look see in a minute.

Like your Tacos bedmate. Haha

 

Yep, looks great with the grey!

You're gonna need to trust me as a long time detailer, and detail spray whore Not saying its the best out there, but it is way better than your current. I have a 13% off code, but am not allowed to post. You should be able to figure it out from my sig

Thanks!

Fluid change madness!

Did Engine, Transmission, Front and Rear Diff and TCase. New oil and air filters, cabin air filter too. Greased the zerks. Power washed the undercarriage.

Whew! I'm about sick of the smell of 75-90 right now.

Next up is spark plugs.

Getting her all dialed in for the trip to Moab in May!
