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

After I threaded mine I made them finger tight and they barely budged after that. Box said they should move 1/4 to 2/3 a turn and I didn't get close.

 

Thank you you're the man

 

Oil change, tire rotation, got her washed, and showed her at the Somernites Car show in Somerset.

She was in pretty good company...

 

Installed the ECGS bushing. Just a hair over 3 hours from start to cleanup.

Some of the vibrations are gone, but not all of em. Hopefully I can get the front tires re-balanced tomorrow at some point and see what happens. The bad balljoints caused the tires to wear funny really fast. Theyre pretty cupped and Im worried the wont balance out.

 

New led dome light

 

Actually looks pretty bright! I debated on led interior due to the fact most of the ones I see in customer cars at the shop are the cheap ones and somewhat dim. You have a link to the bulb you got?

 

Got one of these to put in the truck for camping.

Rear diff vent mod complete!

 

Why don't you look at the 1 in the southeast yardsale thread. It's got a hell of alot of mods and apparently well maintained

 

I got to drive the bitch for the first time in 5 weeks today! Sometimes it's just the simple things

 

Upgraded my reverse tail lights from stock to JDM ASTAR 800 lumen LED bulbs. $19.99 Amazon.

Before and after pictures attached. Brighter white and less yellow.

I'm sure there are brighter ones out there but for $20 I'm happy.

 

Towed the trailer for a weekend of camping. First time towing with the new ToyTec front springs and rear ICON 3 leaf AAL. Much improved riding.

Also got to try my towing mirrors extended for the first time. So much better!

 

Got a Tepui rooftop tent.

 

Took my bass rig to a gig at the state fairgrounds tonight. The band kicked major league ass tonight, we played one 2.5hr set, no breaks. Man it's a treat to jam with these guys

 

Got some goodies for the truck. Still waiting on a bigger transmission cooler to get here.

 

Lemme know how they feel compared to stock. I just installed an EBC kit last week and am thoroughly impressed.

 

First mod of the day? Coffee.

 

Added steering wheel controls for audio and bluetooth. Wasn't too bad. only needed a new clock spring, both controls, connecting cable, and a new air bag cover.

Worst part was drilling out the rivets holding the cover to the airbag. After that it was smooth sailing.

I think i spent about $300 in parts/shipping, and 1.5 hours in time. Audio controls worked immediately. Bluetooth wont work until I install my new head unit. Tomorrow's project.

Also painted the emblem.
