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

Mounted my Hi-lift needs a lil tweeking and will be good to go

 

How are you securing the off-road base?

 

Its a 5/16" x5" carriage bolt with a wing nut and washer on the side of the Hi-Lift

 

And against the thieves?

 

only goes on when I go wheelin. I could get a Star knob with lock if i wanted to keep a honest man honest.

 

Ah gotcha, then you're good to go.

 

Dog platform wrapped and installed

 

New sticker

 

I had the same one!

 

Finally got the NFAB prerunner bumper today. Had to install it

 

Looks good! What are you going to use to fill the gap in the middle?

 

Have a rigid light bar, waiting to get the 2nd one

 

Got 3rd gen sport wheels with nitto G2 265/70/17 did it yesterday but found this thread today.

 

Plastidipped my 15 TRD OR rims in Anthracite today. The sidewalls and masking need to be removed in the photo but so far it's looking pretty good

 

My taco and I welcomed my son to the Toyota family! Not a Tacoma yet but he's on the right path! So proud of him saved up and bought it himself, as it should be.

 

Just changed the air filter today. Not sure how dirty this is in the grand scheme of things but makes me feel better.

 

These will go in tomorrow, hopefully.

Hellas, 5d 23.5" light bar and bussmann wired up.

Fab'ed up a little aluminum bracket to hold down the whip.


2 18w led spot pods as fuck you lights attached to the track on the shell.

25' of rgb waterproof led that do everything but play techno.

And last tech deck (thanks @taczilla) with long aluminum arm for tablet and shorty with magnetic base for phone. Fuckin love this thing. I literally step in and throw my phone at it. It's fuckin solid.

 

Finally broke down and bought a set of torque sticks since I'm pretty much committed to using my pneumatic impact for wheel service. Was going to just get an

$20 Steelman 1/2" Drive 80 ft-lb Torque Extension for Impact Wrench, 8" Extension, Corrosion-Resistant Powder-Coated Steel, Blue

80ft lb stick but ended up just grabbing

$60 Steelman 1/2" Drive 5-Piece Torque Extension Set, 8"es Long, Corrosion-Resistant Powder-Coated Steel, 65ft-lb, 80ft-lb, 100ft-lb, 120ft-lb, and 140ft-lb Torque Sticks

this kit as I can also use the 100ft lb stick for the Hutchinson beadlock bolts.

 

Why don't you move it forward a bit so it doesn't hang off the back so far?
