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

Thanks. It seems that threads I've run into have been just a conflicting mess of info...not that it's really surprising.

I'm watching some videos on it now. Based on that I might run into walmart tomorrow and try it.

 

Picked up Harbor Freight 4 Ton Jack, 6 Ton Jack Stands, and replaced the passenger side wheel bearing/hub assembly.
Tomorrow I'll do the drivers side.

 

Added some Scosche magnetic mounts to my dash. You can see all three there. The two on the top are for an iPad. The one on the bottom right is for a passenger. I have been wanting to find a cheap way to mount my iPad. I considered the TechDeck and Ram mounts. I found this way to be the most economical, easy, and effective for my use.

 

Restored my headlights. I've never done this before and I'm so happy with the results. I tried making a video as well. My first attempt at a how-to video, so I apologize for the poor production quality. I wish I had taken a before and after picture, because it's a day-and-night difference!

looks good to me. excellent job.

 

Make sure you get yourself a permanent UV protective coating to go over the lens otherwise they will fog up again in the matter of a few weeks.

Opti-glass coat is one that gets very good reviews.

Wanna keep those headlamps lookin new

 

I think I got the top of the option list, I probably didn't select the 5 speed in the drop down list and it defaulted to the 3 speed.

 

Just to confirm that is a 32” light bar you mounted in you lower grille? May I ask what brand and where you purchased it. I love where it is mounted on your Taco....

Thanks Mark

 

I did the same - these are inexpensive but have worked out great. My only issue was the adhesive that came with mine (might have been old). I ended up taking that all off and applying 3M adhesive tape. I definitely recommend these

 

Gave it a bath just to take it out in the snow again.

 

New tires this weekend. Michelin LTX A/T 2
Considered the Defenders as mine really is just a commuting and road tripping prerunner, never going to see much more than a gravel road. But the wheels that came on the truck don’t look right to me without something at least a little bit knobby.
Brand new but love them so far. Much much quieter than the OE BFG Rugged Terrain T/A. They were at the wear bars at 32,500 and not much grip in the wet. Curious to see if they improve gas mileage at all.
Favorite feature so far - OWLs on the inside so I never have to try to keep the stupid things clean!

 

Lookin good

 

Ain’t that the truth. #northcountryliving

 

Looking for the lower valance on the front bumper of a 2012-2015. I am trying to help a friend who bumped her truck lightly into a wood barrier damaging the plastic front valance and breaking most of the clips that hold it on. Hoping that maybe someone mounting a new front bumper might have a take-off that I could pick up for her inexpensively. Cue the sympathy plea, she is a wonderful 5th grade teacher so any help is appreciated!

Picture added for clarity.

 

Too much light scatter. Bad for other drivers.

 

Help me understand please. Are you saying that having a light bar at this level on my Taco is to low?

 

Todays project.. New bedside decals. Representing the northside

Nicely done!

 

whoa dude. You got the flag facing backwards, the Maple Leaf is supposed to lead the troops into battle ... blah blah blah

Need to give it a bath! And almost time to repaint the ARB
