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

About 8/9 feet away. X2 for being a sucker for TRD ahaha.


Portrait mode from the same distant.

 

If not, why don't you start one?

 

Thanks man, that looks awesome! I like that it is a little more subtle than the 2nd Gen Pro Skid.

 

Yes sir. The plate is on the thicker side too, 1/4” compared to 1/8” with the original skid plate.

 

20min job took 3 hours. Plastic piece fell into the rear diff while filling it up with oil. Using my bore scope I found the piece. Bendable mechanical fingers got it out...about shit myself.

 

Got a delivery from the big brown truck! Now I need a good weather day to put it on!

Sold the bike! So the canopy goes back on! I hate to sound like this ...... But damn she's so damn sexy....

Also painted my pinch weld.

 

Some unistrut and pipe clamps would be more secure without having to weld anything and give you plenty of attachment points for straps.

 

Looks good!!!
​

I parked mine in the lawn today, not sure if that's considered a mod

 

In Texas. isn't that the default parking place?

It was in Alabama when I lived there anyways.

 

People pretty much park them wherever

My wife actually drove my Tacoma to work today and they just looked so sexy pulling in the driveway I had to do it.

I'll say it is! You have the taillights I want and the roof paint/wrap too lol (those are my next mods on the list) along with a Bussman RTMR, sliders and a winch bumper. This one specifically

Your truck looks sick man!

 

Thanks a bunch!!! I've been loving these tail lights so far, the pics always come out orangish. But the fiber optic tubes are red.

Good list you have going!!!

Edit: you should do the roof of the cap too

​

 

Picked up the TRD Pro kit & Icon AAL from a local TW member for a great deal Headed to Harbor Freight this wknd for all the rest of the tools I need to do the swap!

 

Are you in Portland ?

 

Negative, in the Seattle area

 

In no particular order but I finished installing a bunch of swag I ordered for the new to me in January '11 DCSB Prerunner Sport:
LED license plate lights, LED interior lights from the vendor here, LED lights behind my climate control in amber and LED lights in blurple in my switches, Broke one of my switches so I'm looking for a new one... SOS recovery hook, that tailgate anti-theft device sold from another TW vendor and some OEM bed rail hooks, the small ones. Got my satelite radio installed. And last but not least I did the Caliraised LED replacement fog light pods, I got the 18W ones and just ordered the amber covers. Also used some t-bolts for the bed rails to install my bike fork racks.

I'm coming up on 90K miles and thinking about what I need to do to service it. I'm the fourth owner and have no idea if scheduled or recommended maintenance has been done. I'm thinking about putting it on a rack and going through the front end and also checking out the hubs and bearings? I'll do the trans and rear diff at 100K. What about coils? Radiator will probably get done soon. What else am I missing?

 

Good to hear about the color. I know there are a bunch of different types do you have a link to yours? (just comfort that I know they work well).

I love my list too. I've thought about the cap but the rack I have on there now isn't even with the stock trim if you know what I'm saying. Nevermind here's a pic.


So I think it might look a little off or be too hard to match.

Edit: color and link are for the tail lights lol.

 

Ahh was going to say. We have a few people that hang @ Gear Head Garage here that would help you get that lift on. That is if you lived near Portland.

Be Safe,


Dan
