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

Did the first oil change and tested out the Tacomas towing ability.

Hooked up my pop up and drove around. Drives great compared to how my old ZJ towed. Can't wait to head out to the river next weekend.

 

yeah, Amazon, for $5, including shipping

 

Hunted all day, took a little wheeling break during the rain

 

All nice and clean! Took color matched paint pens to some deep scratches that wouldn't buff out.

 

Those wheels again.

 

I love em. I was going to get rid of them and get something black, like the XD Revolvers, but decided against it. Just going to repaint these.

If you want them, they are super easy to get ahold of man. There are currently 4 sets on FJs the junkyard down the road from me

 

Damn. They're not that easy to find here, so far as I've noticed.
If I could grab a set for junkyard prices I'd be in heaven.

 

is that M&B Auto?

 

I'd totally go grab some for you, but you would have to pay shipping, which would hurt

 

Shipping would blow for sure. One day!

 

Took this picture next to this tree.

 

Painted and relocated badges (spray bed liner & clear coat), painted calipers

 

Diff swap and new brake pads in my buddy's driveway. New 4.88 gears and a rear ARB locker.

 

I'm thinking about doing my calipers as well, also in red. Did you just tape/cover around them and leave them on when you painted?

 

Nope, just a local Firestone out in Fayetteville.

 

I have the same thing, but I live in Vegas and the sticky backing on the Velcro melted in the heat and kept falling off with any weight hanging from it when closed. Have you or anyone heard of an alternative method for attaching? I used large strips of Velcro from a crafts store. Just need to find something that won't melt in the heat here.

 

Try using 3M 1357 Hi Performance Contact adhesive. Make sure to do the 10-15 minute open contact time.

Great, I'll give it a shot!

 

Got bored and did some painting, not sure if I like it yet or not

 

Looks great! Any lift? Leveling kit?
