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

Relocated my trailer harness finally after it's most recent scrape. Pretty easy. Glad I picked up the better hole saw- this thing chewed through the bumper easily. The ones for wood alone are no bueno for the metal bumper.

 

Thanks for the input!!! I think i may tackle this over the weekend

 

You have that problem to my fuel gushe must be broken cause it's on the f I turn away and turn back it's on the e what the hell

 

What size is that hole saw?

 

Well I haven't exactly done things to my truck YET today but I did get in PARTS!!!

Thanks to @olecoot I am fixing the 'can't see over dash' issue tonight and........MY @Mobtown Offroad SLIDERS CAME IN TODAY!! Crappy pic of the sliders, just took a quick one after I dropped them off to be coated.

Parts day is my favorite day and between my old Wrangler and Taco I get to have 'favorite days' a lot lol

 

2 1/8 or 54mm

 

Where do you purchase that grill from? Looks awesome! I have a 2012 TRD that needs a grill like that.

Received my oil analysis results from Blackstone on the 1 year, 7500mile oil, amsoil SS 5w-30. Results were not good.

 

I feel like the captain obvious picture would fit well here

 

Tag me in your pics

 

I thought I would share a post a member made about a mod he did with the spacers. I have his permission to re-post.

Attention all TW members who are just thinking bout this.... does it really make a difference, is it hard, I can do it cheaper with YXZ......
I’m here to tell ya, it makes a HUGE difference. I have a 14 DCLB that has been killing my lower back. I’ve used towels rolled up to lessen the lower gap and raise me up a little. After 5 minuets, REALLY 5 minuets I had the spacers installed and all the trim back in place without hassle. I sat in the seat for a second and thought, cool, it’s gonna help. Did the passenger side in the same amount of time, cleaned up and went for a drive. WOW, what a HUGE difference. No towel shifting while driving, a firm lower seat meeting the proper alignment for back to the upper portion of the seat.
Yes you can use ton of washers to get the same lift but they look junky with all sorts of alignment issues, dirt trapping seems and do they really sit even.... why go through all of that? Just do right and purchase the hand crafted aluminum spacers made by your fellow TW brethren.

Job well done and thank you for creating a very simple elegant item to enhance the experience of driving.

 

Just did a quick test fit making sure all is good before tires get mounted up.

 

Well sometimes TW can lead you astray as well... I saw somebody say they thought maybe they used one so I figured I'd give it a shot to start with. Yeah...no.

 

Drove up to Trans Allegheny lunatic asylum today with my nursing class saw a lot of interesting things and really got to look at how we used to treat those who had mental illnesses way back when. The building was constructed in 1861 Im pretty sure!

 

Repaint them like factory, color matched to mine and polish. No clear coat on the polished part.

 

That's UV fade. Not repainted most likely. Only a hack would have painted with badge on. I recommend buffing with cutting compound then polishing compound.

 

Finally pulled the trigger and ordered heated seats. Not as hard as I thought it would be to install. Going to love it come this winter in northern Alberta.
