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

Washed mine today too

 

Good to know, never knew they existed! Thanks

 

Can you post a side view? Thinking about buying a set on the 3rd gen wheels myself. I haven't seen them on black yet.

 

This is the best one I have right now. Hope this helps! Little man approves!

 

The spare fits very snug under the truck. Kinda have to pull it towards the hitch when it’s cranked up.

 

on a 2015...

 

Mounted my ultragauge that I bought to monitor trans temp while towing in front of the RPM gauge. I can still see up to 2500 rpm and there are no idiot dash lights in the top section of the rpm gauge so nothing is blocked besides the higher rpm which I normally never reach anything over 3000rpm. Also, I tried in the bottom left and upper left of the windshield and near the rear view mirror but didn't like that my visibility was hindered or that the gauge would be in direct sunlight and in view of thieves. Here it's much less obvious and can't be seen through my tinted windows unless you are specifically looking for it. I used the horizontal surface mount and routed the wire around the outside fo the rpm gauge and down through the steering column.

 

Those look pretty slick. Think I'll pull the trigger on the set. Thanks!

 

Or You could do this . mine never had the factory cover either. made a splash guard from a spray paint can cap.

 

Off Grid Engineering Dual Battery setup?

 

Dont even bother with that. I did my entire dual battery set up for $400 and that includes a $200 battery

 

Looks like it! Wicked clean install

 

yes it is.. and yes it can be done cheaper

.

 

Hey if you get some time and could take a picture I'd love to see how the ABS pump or whatever the heck it is is relocated onto the second battery tray off of the firewall.

 

Looks great! Might be able to do cheaper by sourcing your own stuff but with all the time and hassle involved with that I think I'd just buy the kit - plus it's purdy........

Did you install yourself? Did it come with the upgraded alternator cables besides battery cables?

 

truck is a off road version..no ABS in that corner, just a open space...

 

If you have the Off Road package, nothing needs to be moved for the 2nd battery tray. If you have a different package, there will be an ABS module there in that corner. In that case they offer a larger tray that will hold 2 batteries in the factory location, but its tight.

 

yes self installed...very ez to do...kit isnt cheap, mine is now 2+ years old, but quality of the components was very good....

no Alt cables not included, the truck has a 130 A unit OEM with ok wiring harness..

Mark was a great person to work with...

 

Mine is a 2013 offroad. It doesn’t look like a second battery will fit there without relocating this thing.

 

Is there a write up on doing the second battery
