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

It raises the rear of the seat 25mm or 1 inch. You will need longer bolts.

 

I like how they match the plastic that covers the seat track. Paint them and you wouldn't know they are there.

 

a young lady met my Wilco Hitchgate today

 

Exactly! Now, if only I wasn't such a cheapskate!

 

I was hesitant at first but I really didn't like the unfinished look of the other ones and my seat just feels too low in the rear.
You can buy some cheap spacers, install them and see if it's what you really want before dropping the cash.
Just don't leave the cheap spacers in there for safety reasons.

 

Cleaned MAF and throttle body and the K&N





Kinda embarrassed how dirty it is. This is less than a years worth of dust.


Measured the old plugs. .047”-.050” after roughly 50k miles.



Hoping this bumps the fuel mileage back up a little. Tryin to squeeze as much as I can outta it.

Also

Trimmed the fender liners a little bit more to add a bit more clearance.

 

Ouch. Did it survive?

 

Installed some daylight from eBay.

 

Debadged the tailgate. Just left Tacoma.

Really am itching to put a new tailgating. I know it’s a truck but that bearing edge on the bottom drives me crazy sometimes. Besides that there isn’t a dent on the truck

 

Looks like a completely different truck. Always nice to actually notice a difference when you do something.

 

Ive been doing way too much to mine lately.
Mapecu3 w/afr calibrator.
AFR sensor and gauge.
Spyder headlight housings.
New bracket holding grote light bar.
Fabricated new rear bumper.
Through body exhaust w/borola muffler, v-band clamp flanges and heat wrapped.
1” body lift.
Body mount chop plates(chop done a long time ago)
Cleaning up wiring for other things. And yes this is all what I’m doing right now.
Waiting on shackle flip kit and shackles to come in.

Felt good to finally drive my truck again!! I’ve been using one of my Chevy trucks from my shop.

 

Show off! Some of us weren't near a phone to order before they disappeared like a Cabbage Patch doll at Christmas!

 

I REALLY like that rear bumper. Needs some attachment points for d-rings and the ends need to be cleaned up so they match the body/taillight better.

 

On your skid plate.

 

Oh yea that was just a test fit. I did some more work and bondo and paint after that. Tonight I’m fully mounting it and doing the wiring for the license plate and back up camera and the push/pull cable (how I open my shaved tailgate)
I got some d rings but couldn’t figure out a way to make them not rattle like crazy. I have 2-12” subs with 3000 watts and more that make my truck go boom boom too

 

Something like this but tied into the bumper attachment points on the frame so the only part that sticks out past the surface of the bumper is the attachment point itself.

I wonder if an armor company would like to replicate your design or if you will sell it in the future.

 

Installed my "poor man's oba".

$103 Viair 88p Portable Compressor Kit (12V, 120 Psi, Forup to 33" Tires)

Viair 88p portable compressor mounted in bed cubby.


Hose reaches all tires but the front passenger side will have to have the valve stem closest to passenger door to reach lol.

Probably going to cut the hose and install a coupler. Tight squeeze in the bed cubby with the compressor and hose shoved inside.

 

Impressive bumper man. I need one.
