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

Yep. Expand your search as well. They might be able to get stuff from other PepBoys stores.

 

Now I just need to find a dime (to stop on...)

They owe you 12" of slotting. I'd send them to me as they are not up to spec.

 

For all you peeps getting new hi lifts, do yourself a favor and make sure you prep them and practice using them before you need to in the field. Check the climbing pins and springs, lube the small runner and other mechanical parts, and sand down the standard bar on the climbing side. Also order up some spare pins and springs. Wear gloves and don't shatter your jaw while learning to use your new tool.

 

Amen brother. I gotta be honest, I'm a little nervous to use mine for the first time. Luckily I have another 5-6 weeks before my sliders come in anyway, so I have time to prepare myself mentally.

 

Those handles come back up real fast. 4xOverland has a good video on using Hi-lifts.

I thought it was a video just on the Hi-lift but I think it is part of the bigger video on recovery. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAJ-t71GlUc&t=1139s

 

Speaking of, who was it that made the Hi-Lift slider adaptor? Scared as shit last time I needed to use mine that it was just going to slip off

@Shmellmopwho ? Damn, should have known chadspride would beat me.

 

Bill Burke's are fantastic as well.

 

Until now I never had a reference as to just how small the viar air compressor is

On another note is that a lens cover on your fogs?

 

Looks like it might be a lamin-x cover.

 

Very good advice- I've only played with one in tractor supply and almost hurt myself, def need practice.

 

They come in many different sizes

 

Sooo, it's a hi lift with a new base? Neat to see more applications for it!

 

Yea right? Crazy what its capable of, just ordered mine on pep boys!

 

Great video ... shows some ways I hadn't thought of doing..

 

I just put on some LED fog lights for a Lexus IS250. They fit almost perfectly. This is what I used http://www.ebay.com/itm/282458827879.

I'll put up pictures a little later. Small mod but it definitely looks a lot cooler than the stock lights.

 

I still need to adjust the beam down a little bit
