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

Yes they are always handy to have around

 

mine was hanging loose so it was sketchy with a sawzall so i took a handsaw to it...

mufflers gonna need to be replaced as well. anyone know a good muffler that would add a little tone without being loud and droney?
magnaflow? flowmaster? other?
i want something to derestrict it a little but dont wanna wake the neighbors. just a muffler not a full catback either

thanks

 

I did my notches to prevent leaks...

 

Everything lined up almost perfectly, only thing I had a slight issue was putting the pins in the top of the grill to hold it in place, due to slight misalignment but they eventually went in.

 

They are gladiator x comp mt 33x12.5

 

I got the vibe after my ~3” lift (King extended travel CO, All Pro expo leaf pack and king rear shocks). Tried the 3° shim from Toytec. I still have my take off vibe. Front steel bumper didn’t change that. Perhaps it’s time to actually measure the drive line angles? Hassle.

 

Mine had no vibe (2.5* shim & CB drop) with AAL but started when I swapped to the 96R. Hoping rear bumper weight smooths it out but I’ll throw the 4* if it still happens. Good luck and let us know.

 

Does it over hang from the sides? Do you have more pictures?

 

Well one free canopy later and I'm at a crossroads, never really liked canopy look but since free maybe do something cool with it and add a topper basket etc. looking for ideas, it has some minor scrapes im going to fix, its going to be project

Anyone know what the black tabs fit? like cross bars or what

 

Freeeeee

 

The black tabs look like artificial rain gutters for Yakamia towers. 1A I think.

 

Installed a Color matched the grill surround today.

 

Man that looks sweeeeeet! I’m so ready for my grill and raptor lights to come in the mail soon.

 

Is that short bed?

 

Edited an phone picture

 

Finally was able to get the garage cleaned out and get some space to work. Installed the TRD Cat-back exhaust I picked up from the TRD sale back in April. Had a bit of trouble with the gasket leaking exhaust, but nothing a quick trip to the store couldn't fix. Looks darned good and I appreciate the deeper sound. Also fancied up the shift knob.

 

The the DS drop bracket from OME it takes 2 minutes to put on and that with your 3* shim youll be mint

 

Jesus dude, going to have a game of football under that thing?

 

got my taco a few months ago fast forward to first hot day when I am and the Ac doesn’t work.

Not uncommon to see car here with extremely low charges in the system with our temp swings. Charged the system (with proper tools and procedure) was working good. 3 weeks later another scorcher and I throw the Ac on, no cold air.


Gotcha... low side line leaking. Better then the evaporator.
