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

Those are the tires that come with the off road, so that very well may be the original spare. Even if it looks alright, I wouldn't trust it. 10 years is considered past the shelf life of a tire. Curious what you find!

 

I'm looking at some Discovery's. They look pretty good for the price point. Those or Nitto Terra. Not planning on a lift, just want some more beef.

 

That is a nice bumper! I'm looking at Pelfreybilt since I'm able to drive down. Looks like very similar construction as well

 

Keep it clean from day one.
Gunk engine cleaner and Blackmagic make some decent stuff.
I've had the best luck with Gunk engine cleaner on an untouched engine me bay.
My wife's.

 

Took it for the last Toyota care oil change and tire rotation. Ended up with a new battery because the original failed it's test. Took a peek at the new one and it looked like it said 24 months......

 

After getting my lift installed as well as my wheels n tires I headed North to Flagstaff, AZ to beat the heat and to shake her out on some high altitude trails (inspired by all the Instagram pics this last week of the FJ Summit in CO). Hope you enjoy!

Day 1 (Thursday July 20th)
Found a sweet little hidden away spot to camp, all I will share is that it is in the cinders area, near the O'Leary Peak Trail.


Day 2 (Friday July 21st)
Cruised some cinder trails while waiting out the torrential thunderstorm before heading up the O'Leary Peak Trail. The sky over head cleared and I hit the trail. Wet and slippery conditions but beautiful views of the San Francisco Peaks.


Day 3 (Saturday July 22nd)
I took the 'Lookout Road' up Mount Eldon to see what was up at 9100 ft. If you're a mountain biker then this is an excellent place to ride. Not much as far as 4x4 trails, but a couple extra short trails up there. I had a good time. Great views of Flagstaff to the South, Humphrey's Peak to the North, and Sunset Crater Volcano National Monument to the East. On the way down I picked up a mountain biker with a flat tire and gave him a ride back to downtown Flagstaff (that would have been a long walk in clip-in shoes) then I grabbed lunch at Bun Huggers before heading back to the Valley of the Sun.

 

Haven't started digging that deep yet.

 

Replaced the blower motor today. Finally crapped out. Of corse it would be when it's 90+ degrees outside. I didn't realize how much the blower was slowing down over time.

 

Butter smooth ride

 

Great pics and good looking Tacoma

 

Shims, tire rotation, and wash time for a cold one.

 

Also a new addition to the garage.

 

You are very much welcome.

 

A while back I saw some sweet tactical things that hang off of the front seats onto the back of the seat for easy storage. Does anyone have a link for those things? I've seen a bunch that is a full seat cover, but I though someone posted a pic here of something that was just something that rested on the back of the seat.

 

Gave my truck a good wash haven't washed it in 4 months. Loving it clean!
