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

Was it making a light squeal on takeoff? Roughly on the 2500 to 3500 range?

 

Got my new knobs in the mail today and just installed them. I LOVE the feel, love the look and there doesn't seem to be any play or light leaking through. Feel very solid and give a solid "click" when turning them.

Also got my magnetic phone mounts that fit on the vents. They pivot as well which is nice.

 

I'd like to know more about these phone mounts please.

 

Sorry I have no idea they were on the truck when I bought them. I put led backup bulbs and the housing seemed quality. HTH

 

OMG

 

They're about $3.50 each on the AliExpress, way cheaper than Amazon. They actually seem to be made of some aluminum and have some weight to them.

Slight vibe and clunk at take off. The rubber was ripped all the way around allowing it to flop around.

 

Holy truck. Your rig is bad ass

 

Not a fan of the OE LEDs. Dumped them on day one.

 

Had this issue as well. Wasn't ripped, but worn down. Took back to the dealer, and was covered under warranty, so they replaced the whole driveshaft along with the carrier bearing. Solved the issue.

 

I'd love to have a non pink version of these... one day!

 

Was taking a "panorama" and it chopped my truck.

 

Did another thing... Prinsu Toprac ordered to match my cabrac

 

Designed and printed some spacers for the brake lines to accommodate the bolts after adding a set of bolt-on BAMF sliders. Admittedly this wasn't done today (except the photos), but I wanted to wait a few days to confirm the design was working. I still want to get around to designing a third one for the far back, but for now the front two are enough to keep the lines away from the bolts.

"Drop-in" replacement for the OEM bracket


Bonus new bracket that pressure fits onto a bolt


Plenty of clearance now


Here's the back, you can see it still clears with just having the front two in, but I'd eventually like to get around making a spacer to push that OEM bracket out a bit as well to regain some rigid support back there


Here are the renders from the models, starting with the drop-in replacement


Over-the-bolt


And the work in progress for spacing out and slightly relocating the rear-most OEM bracket

Dang idk why I didn't think of that. Any chance I could get a step file so I can print myself a set

 

Multiple projects at once. I needed the oil leak fixed so I could finally clean the engine bay to redo all of my wiring grime-free.

 

Thanks, man

 

Is that a matte blue wrap? Build thread??

 

Sure thing, here you go: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3122608

 

Wiped my engine bay down.

What goes here? Maybe ABS (I have an OR)?
