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

Great work on the AC plate, but dang brother take it easy with the electrical tape. That stuff leaves black gunk all over everything. It's best to use Velcro wrap or wire ties. That way you can fix or change things without a mess.
Also, I'm a big fan of TapIt waire connectors. You don't have to cut into your wires https://www.crutchfield.com/p_669PP...a&awnw=g&awcr=48387290425&awdv=c&awug=9012068

 

small zip ties work well at keeping everything tight and together also. makes it nice and clean without all the gunky mess
i used lime green ones to make them standout so i know where they are if i ever have to go back there and mess around

 

Added some fj wheels and tires i got off of craigslist that came with michelin m/s2's! Much needed upgrade over the stock dunlops

 

That is very different, I like it a lot.

 

Just when I thought my drug induced flash backs from the early 80s were gone for good.....BAM,relapse!

 

Changed my cabin air filter and blew out my condensate drain. Hadn't seen a drop out of it in about 18 months. Now I am leaving a puddle and a trail down the driveway as I back out!

Gave this filter a whirl. So far the air seems to smell fresher (doesn't have any smell at all). And they're half the price of OEM.

I made a little progress yesterday in the front speaker setup. I did a test fit this morning to make sure there were no fitment issues.

Dayton RS-75 midrange in the factory tweeter spot with ABS adapter plates I made.




Dayton RS-225 8" woofers in the 6x9 location. Bottom layer is 3/4" birch ply and top layer is 1/2" birch ply. The magnet clears the window by about 3/8". Win!



Overall shot.



Today I hope to start on the tweeter pods, which will be going on the little trim panels that cover the backside of the side mirrors.

Once it's all in and playing, I'll be deadening the doors with a bunch of Stinger Roadkill.

 

Your truck is EVIL.

 

Looks like you have the inside matching as well from seeing the steering wheel cover.
That is a really great purple.

 

Pics of new wheels. Will eventually do something with the center caps. Not a fan of the big 8.

 

I know, it's the stupid Chinese Android unit's harness that looks horrendous. Good idea..I have plenty of Velcro. Thanks

 

How did you blow out the condenser drain?

 

Put in some new headlights

 

After I got my alignment done when I finished my lift and new tire setup my traction control kicks on when I go around sharp turns or at high speed on off ramps. I'm assuming I need to re-calibrate something but not sure what so before I ask the dealer to fix it I was wondering if anyone had the same issue and what i need to tell the dealer to fix

 

Convinced my buddy to buy a TRD Sport like mine... swayed him away from a Frontier or Exterra...
Although he was already wanting one, didn't take much convincing, his wife wrote off their PathFinder
Next I'll convince him to join the site and get hooked on upgrading!! hahaha

 

Need to check out Crom's post: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ibrate-your-vsc-computer-the-easy-way.467485/

He has a really great write-up on how to calibrate your VSC computer. I had the same issue with mine after new lift, followed Crom's instructions and no more issues!

 

Highly appreciated thank you so much!
