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

Nope don't even come up.. I might call autozone tomorrow and see if they can have them shipped in.

 

I know some locations carry different things. When they were checking to see who had it not all the local stores had it

 

Yea and what sucks is they discontinue suff as quick as they get stuff in because the one near me had some awesome highpower interior led light that they replaced with cappy Philips led lights.

 

I just checked the site and it's on the far right under led lighting. Says select stores.


The zone pays my bills with a nice salary so to each their own

 

Yea I tried every store within reason and still not available.. might be a state difference lol

 

But I will call tomorrow and see if store can even try to get them in.

 

Depends on what the demand in the area is

 

I'll ask him when I go to his shop in a couple days. The only thing is you have to unmount the wheels before bringing them in.

 

Once I have the new wheels mounted I could let you borrow my stock set if you decide to get it done

 

Added to my ever growing pile of new goodies!!! Tube steps came in today. Color matched grill surround and new TRD insert are waiting in the wings. Tires and rims coming in the next few weeks. WeatherTech mats and bed cover on the way!!! Once the tires and rims come it'll be off to the shop for a lift and one day total transformation...COMING SOON

 

My exact thought.
But you can't deny, @Jeebz 's truck looks amazing

 

Nice job on the bed rack!

 

Yep

 

That's scary. I had thought about getting one of those. Have others had this issue?

 

Well I am back at work and realized that I didn't post my last week home. So... a week of updates.
1.I got husky mats in the mail, love them and so SO much better then the stock sets that I was running. I had a picture installed but I cant seem to find it.

2. I shaved the body mount to prevent any more rubbing from the 33's. The old man decided to get in there with a grinder to clean up the cut a little. Pretty funny.

3. The most controversial upgrade I have done to date. I posted earlier that I installed a box for a future upgrade. Here is the rest of the duel electric fan upgrade. Tested so far with over 50km per tank further range.
Here are the pictures. Before picture with the stock clutch fan.

Sealed Controller box made of a plano tackle box and L brackets. Used gromit on the bottom of the box to feed wires through. Not 100% waterproof but I have been through some major wet area's and nothing stays inside.

Put a couple washers inbetween the nuts and the water pump pulley.

Then installed the fans using the push through zip ties. Each fan is rated at 1650 CFM and in testing it cools the radiator a 10 degree change in under 30 seconds with only one fan running.

I am using an inline temp sending unit (0-300f) from Dakota Digital to match the controller that I bought. I used a flexalite 1 1/2" housing (smallest I could find to try and match 1 3/8" hose) and using a little petroleum jelly I was able to slide the hose over without much issue. I had to ground the sensor housing by tapping a small screw through the brass fitting on the opposite side of the sensor housing.

And finally wired up the fans to a 60 amp resettable circuit breaker and two separate relays to individually control the fans via controller.

 

Yes got one design as a short throw not as a add on urd one puts to much stress on the neck down part in the stock shifter

 

Which wires did you use to tie the lights to the key fob? I would love to see a write up.

 

I ordered these for my '13: http://www.amazon.com/OPT7®-Nova-Pl...w_p_img_9?ie=UTF8&refRID=1KHGRT6B5S3XMWGX0J05

 

Ditto!
