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

Changed my spark plugs today. About 27k on them. Thank you for the great write ups on this site. Always nice to reference before starting a project. Start to finish was about an hour. Gapped to 0.041 and torqued to 15lbs, put Densos in again and she fired right up on the first crank. Plugs came out the box almost dead nuts, was very impressed. Also, having the spark plug magnetic swivel extension is a must.

 

I've never done it myself, but have considered it. It doesn't seem terribly difficult and theres a guy on here that's done it. He has a thread about wrapping his truck and says he never did it either. I want to say Vinyl for a entire wrap is anywhere from 3-600 dollars for the material. Ebay is where I found it and you can buy it in various lengths.

 

I just got a clear pair of these with the work/scene lenses for supplemental reverse lights. How was the install?

 

Is 37,000 the norm? New to 2nd gens. My 1st gen I4 went forever.

 

Do you have a link for the switch holder you installed?

 

easy install, i have a lot of my stuff prewired. i have the work clear setup on the rear rack. put the wide up front to test the throw

 

Toyota says 30,000 miles. You could easily go longer but for $30 why not make sure she runs her best. It really is very simple and the write ups on this site are great.

 

Aye manual says 30,000 but after doing mine every 30,000 so far (@ 91,000 miles now) I think I'm gonna go to 50,000 increments.

 

@docloco sells them

 

I did the same thing

Just a FYI when you put it in L Gear there is a plastic thing that will hit the switches

 

It’s that flexible plastic piece right?

 

Yes haha I cut mine and cut it a tad too much and it’s visible in park

 

Working on your truck and messing up is the worst haha...it’ll always be in the back of your mind.

 

Thank you.

 

@FadedComa someone else has your idea

 

I have all the parts in the corner of my room to do this but just haven’t had time

 

Salsas are great! Love my Warbird

 

Gave the Tacoma a break and worked on the SUBI-did plugs&wires the others day and now swapping the alternator out for a new one cause it’s over charging @16! While I was into it I decided to tear into the airbox,MAFS, PCV and throttle body.. after 245k I think it’s time-yikes

 

4Runner brake upgrade?
