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

Don't have the PM with his TW username as it was before the software update, but did find my paypal payment to him. I know he's a 1st gen owner because he accidentally bought the 2nd gen version and was trying to sell them. Hopefully I'll hear from him tomorrow and I'l let you know.

 

Thank you, much appreciated

 

Detailed the Hell outta this guy today...took 7 hours...

 

I did mine, I used a cheese wiz can of great stuff rtv, no leaks. The hardest part was getting lights out of the truck.

 

Bought a used shell.

 

Nice hatchback

 

Is that colour matched? If not it looks damn close.

 

Pretty airtight so far! The rails and hoses seem to do a great job getting rid of the water. Moment I got the thing installed it started to rain so i got a nice preview. Seems to have a bit of a bigger cover over the tailgate than the BakFlip. Seems like a solid one so far!

Heres a few horribly taken pics i took just after install. I at least just put a fresh coat of wax on the truck to make it presentable

 

Love the wheels!!!

 

Did you drill holes for the hoses? Install instructions say to use factory frail holes, bit I don't have any where the houses should be

 

Im not sure about the short box but the long box has some in the right corners near the cab... the holes are pretty small though so they had to be drilled a bit bigger to fit the hose. Not sure on the bit though.

I would look into this thread if I was you to get the full info on install

Shot box doesn't have any there. Thanks for the link!

 

Looks like a slightly different setup than the video I watched. Did they redesign some aspects of it? The one I ordered is supposed to have clamps to attach the flex's rails to the stock bed rails, and no screws on top or anything

 

That's a very good point. Mine is definitely different than that one.

This is more like the version I have. The new ones might be an updated version

One tip the truck accessory store told me is to shut the tailgate before closing the final end of the cover to avoid the seal pushing inwards

That tonneau looks nice. Does it interfere with our rails?
