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

hmmmm....these look very useful.

 

Welcome to TW!

 

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's a 100R, but I gave LEER customer service the serial number so we'll see. Color matched already so just a little sealing to do around the bottom and wire up the brake/interior light and she's good to go.

 

16hrs later...
- Kings ext resi extended droop 700# front
- Kings ext resi extended droop Dakar spec rear
- OME Dakar leaf packs (custom shimmed and rebuilt with a dry film lubricant and then supergrease - all new plastic clips)
- OME bushing kit for front leaf mounts
- Energy Suspension bushing kit for rear leaf mounts
- Camburg upper control arms - ball joint
- All-pro spindle gussets
- New front wheel bearings
- Extended brake lines front/rear
- Spidertrax 1.25" hub centric spacers all around
- Removed factory swaybar

@mach1man001 helped me out with the install and I learned a ton with him showing me the rights and wrongs of the job.

Rides mint - much smoother over bumps but rolls a bit when turning and cornering but nothing I can't live with. I still need an alignment but I need to rebuild the lca since they are seized up and need new balls joints. Gained 3inches up front and almost 4inches in back but I'm sure it will settle. Sitting at 22" front and 24.5" rear for hub to fender measurement.

 

well, somebody did, i bought it at 163k a month or so ago lol

 

Installed SOS sliders w/ a little help.

 

I spy @Sub-Zero in the background?

 

Had fun at an early morning Cars & Coffee:

Yea he was doing more important shit.

 

Alignment and new TPMS sensors finally programmed.

 

Cleaned up the front of my truck
Before:

The paint peeled off when I power washed the plastidip off, and the clear coat is peeling( cheap pint job after previous owner wrecked it), so I used some flat black spray paint and riveted my plate on. Simple fix. It will do for now

After:

 

I sneaked in one more project. Repurposed my old cross bars, cuz I'm too too cheap to get a new set, and installed them on the cap. I almost lost a goddamn finger in the process but it's all good. Now I just need to fine me a wire pallet to use as a basket.

 

Just got some mail from @Downsouth Motorsports

 

I pumped some oil for analysis. Going in the mail tomorrow.

 

Let's hope their UCAs help me exhibit that hp gain

 

Beforeafter Work in progress, Finally got the time to install my OME Dakar leaf pack!

 

She took me to lowes to get some black kow then sat and watched me get my garden planted!

 

Tested out the new 884's while checking on the property for the first time this year. Trails need cleaned up pretty bad. Might've had to drive over a couple downed trees that were in my way
Overall no sway bar and 884's on 5100's makes a pretty nice ride.

 

Enjoy the dakars!
