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

Thanks for the tip! I did scuff before hand, but then I went to straight to regular primer. Where can I find a good etching primer?

 

Should have at any good auto parts store. I think autozone has it in their paint section.

 

Sweet, thanks! I'll have to give it another go once the weather gets warm again.

 

Weird pattern. Looks like something dirty was placed against the truck, then it was lowered, then lifted. That would explain the V pattern of scratches. Where were you parked?

 

Yes I had mine there at first but I had nothing to hold it in place from moving around. Tried dbl sided tape which didnt hold so I moved it. That is a good spot.

 

Does anybody use an oil catch can? Posted in here about using one but only got a cpl responses. My second oil sample came back contaminated with gas. Possible cause is blow by so will a catch can prevent this?

 

I fabricated a wood block to mount it on, the block is 3M double stick taped to the tray.

 

4 tires for $350???

 

I have one on my 2013,4.0. It works great i only have to empty it everytime i change my oil.

 

This crap reminds me of stuff punks do for fun. Like jumping on the hoods of cars at the mall just to crush in the hood

 

Grillcraft and frontrunner rack

 

That's a great deal! That's cheaper than one of my tires

 

Perfect thank you!

885 or 887 OME depending on how much lift you want

 

Or 886s depending on truck weight.

And don't forget to set dem shits to 0 when you swap in the new coils.

 

I found very similar marks in the same spot on my old Ford Ranger one day when I got home from work, I was pissed. Found out the next day that my boss had backed into my truck with sticks hanging out the back of his truck, he offered to pay for the repairs. I am guessing that's what happened here, something sticking out of the back of someones truck and backed into you. Sorry man, hit and runs are the worst.

 

Got a link for this? I broke my antenna recently

Swapped out the regular breather from when I re-routed the diff breather to a proper filter. 11$ going to swap the front breathers into a filter box hopefully before winter hits and salt gets everywhere
