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

Got rid of the stock wheels and Dunlops last weekend and replaced them with FN FX Pros in Matte Gunmetal and 265/65r17 BFG AT KO2s!

 

How do they compare to yeti?

 

This is awesome! You need some duct tape racin stripes too! Awesome!

 

they don't. its just a soft cooler you can take to the beach with you for a day.

 

Ahhh I thought they might be similar to yeti's soft coolers

 

Welcome Aboard!

 

Man you're more cautious than me. I would have cracked open a beer, heated up the blade of my pocketknife with a flame to kill the germs, and gone after it!

 

What did you use to mount it?

 

not today, a few weeks ago, but I don't think i've ever posted these....

Perma-wired a Rexing V1 dashcam with a GPS unit and installed a HoverBar that I won at some raffle years ago and it just sat on my shelf collecting dust. Ripped off a dig ugly clamp that it came with and attached to the seat post with a nice black angle mount I picked up at a hardware store for $2. Came out pretty damn solid.

 

replaced my body mounts with the energy suspension pucks. scary stuff....

 

havent had a chance to use it yet, will tomorrow. Im having my buddy with his yeti bring his to our bbq so we can compare. For sure the zippers on the ozark at glance looks like they will leak some if tipped

 

My brother and sister-in-law came from KC for the weekend, which means I got my bed mat. Hopefully $50 well spent. Oh and @ChadsPride I brought a freaking kid home and I still don't get a thumbs up on top of the other stuff I've done to the truck? What does a guy have to do to get a l Iike? Geez.....

 

Rotated the wheels with the help of the biggest clown on the planet.


Then cleaned her up so I can have a clean truck for Father's Day.

 

Wheeled it with my boy then gave it a bath so I can relax and do homework tomorrow (contradictory?). Realized I may need to chop my exhaust a little higher. It spent quite a while underwater today.

 

Hose storage idea. Pvc tubing and...I forget the name of those rubber coated wire wraps.

 

Finally got the front Billies on. I put them on the same way they came off and I noticed the spring sits different on each side.

I dipped my bed cap, took 5 cans. Best to go with light coats to cover, then heavy ones. I found the rustolium version of dip was better, and adding gloss clear dip over evens out the color.

Also heat causes texture so aim for the cooler parts of the day and in the shade.

 

Just finished my rack build. Grand total $65.

 

Geartie, isn't it?

 

I got the rustoleum version, it was on sale for $3.99. They only had 12 cans of white and I've used 9 of them and need more.
The truck looks terrible half done.

I stopped for the heat of the day, the surface of the truck. Must have been close to 150 degrees... not good for paint.
And a photo so you can have a nice chuckle.
