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

pop and lock
How do you like the pop and lock? How was the install?
Backup camera in my tailgate where the lock would be has always bugged me a little. I really like the idea of a keyless lock wired in to lock/ unlock with the other doors

 

Got my Bilstein 5100 installed. The ride is comfy and the truck looks great imho. Now to save up for the KO2s

 

I have one. Works great.

 

I just found / started reading the thread related to this, can't wait!

 

Installed wheel bearing/hub assemblies from nj636. Back to smooth and quiet.

 

Westin grill guard and black spray paint on the radiator. Thanks to Cativelense for the paint recommendation




Next weekend will be the remote start if I get it in time!

 

Got my SOS Concepts rear bumper installed... finally. This thing has been sitting in my garage painted for a few months now. Still need to hook up my flush mounts.

 

Sumo Springs and Rear Dif breather relocation.

Bought the sumo springs to prep for when I move later this year. Grabbed the black in color heavier weight ones. While it doesn't sag much since I put the AALs in, load carrying still needs some work. That and if I move somewhere I can drive to, I'll pull a trailer this time. Side note that even with 8+ year old AALs and the original non TSB springs, there is still a 1.5ish inch gap. The Toytec AALs have held up pretty well.

Did the rear dif relocation as I'm trying to prevent the rear axle seal from leaking again. Got it repaired at the dealer about six months ago and it started again for awhile and then stopped again.. Figured relocating it to behind the tail lights would keep the Methville USA road salt from eating it any more. Used all the 5/16" parts from one of the DIY threads. Less than $10 for the hose, union, and breather. Already had the hose clamps.

 

Thats nice and non flashy looking. I like the subdued, not covered in brand names or gadgets look. Any idea if it works with the OEM receiver hitch from the tow package?

 

K I'll look into it when I get home from work

 

4 popper takes 6.1qt. Lol

 

Installed 2 9inch auxbeam flood lights

 

Part one of the US Offroad bumper install today. Got almost everything done, though looks like I might have to loosen things back up once last time to see if I can get it positioned up just a tad bit more.

ENGO 10k winch, sirius flood beam led pods.

 

The correct amount of oil with a filter change in the V6 is 5.5 quarts.

 

Works great. I got the PL 8540 codeable one. It codes to your ignition key and connects to the door lock so your key fob can unlock it too. Took about two hours as I took my time insuring the wiring followed the backup camera routing.

Seat heaters installed last week!

 

More info please.

 

1. 2. 3. DO ITTTTT

 

The SOS bumper has a receiver hitch behind the license plate. ..
You won't need the factory hitch,and the trailer plug is also relocated behind the plate.

 

Dropped my drive shaft today and replaced the U joints.

Now I don't have vibrations I didn't even know I had! It's amazing how much of a difference it made from before. I was used to the truck having a bit of a rumble at highway speed, but now the cab is like Hillary Clinton's campaign headquarters the day after the election!

I picked up the

$26 Spicer 5-213X U-Joint Kit 1330 Series (OSR)

Spicer 5-213X U Joints and now I can put a grease gun on them regularly. Took about 3 hours to get it done.
