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

I need new flag decals.

Recommendations on color, size and location?

I was thinking a gunmetal grey right under the side mirrors and aligned with the edge of the door?

 

That would look good.

 

Or on the flat spot on the top of the rear fender where it meets the cab?

Darn first world problems.....

 

I think the flag decals up front look better myself but whatever you prefer is all that matters.

 

Yah - I'm leaning that way myself.

 

Goes back instead of down?

 

That's what I do

 

Yeah exactly. Allows me to run tucked up skids now.

 

Damn thats a good idea. Hate the way the stock pipes runs

 

I think it is time (55k)....

for an EBC Brake Party...

 

Adds to mod list

 

Added a light bar with a pair of LEDs, a tri-fold tonneau cover, and a locking tailgate handle. . .

 

That's a nice looking cooler.

 

It says “foam filter oil” which to me this sounds like just a generic label because Uni also makes just straight foam-only filter types.


Okay yeah guys just a quick google and here we go for demo videos on Foam Filter oil. Nothing on their web page indicates oiling the ones people are putting on air pumps, so that’s nonsense.

 

It’s a real good easy mod! Luckily for me I had already tapped into my dome light/door trigger for my foot wells, so this made the wiring a breeze.

I used these LED’s for the door pockets, got them off of eBay.




All I had to was drill a small hole in the pocket and run the wire through the grommet to your power source.



Used LED strips for the rear behind the headrests.

 

Clean install! Those look great.

 

Thanks man!

 

With my cap.on, I didn't have access to apply any protectant to my 3rd brake light. It was pretty faded, so I used some Meguiar's Plast-X Clear Plastic Cleaner and Polish. Worked great. Also washed rear windows and applied Rain-X.

 

Good to know I plan on just not using mine till I get it serviced when I get home in like 6k miles

 

Today I installed my new transfer case skid for rerouted exhaust. Gained a couple more inches of clearance. I also took the time to service my steel winch line after my last trip. I had to winch about 130' up a hill in the rain, so needless to say it was used hard and put away wet. Literally. I pulled it all out, and the wiped the whole thing down with PB blaster. The manual recommends using a penetrating oil for cleaning it. Then I used an F-150 as an anchor and applied slight brake pressure and winched in.
