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

I have one on my truck. I used composite shims from Home Depot and hammered them under the bottom and on 1 of the sides to keep it from rattling. Once you cut the shims down, no one knows you have them installed. Cheap and easy fix.

 

where can I find that shifter knob??

 

Tacomabeast sells them. Here's the link:

In keeping with the theme "What have you done to your 2nd Gen Tacoma today" Well, I tried to open the passenger door with the key and it failed, is there a simple fix for this? I sprayed it down with W-D40 to no avail. it works fine using the fob. I can live with it this way, but I would really like it to work, Thanks

 

I’ve done nothing to my truck because of this BS. And it’s in Celsius for our American neighbours. -47F and -67F with windchill at the coldest.

 

I had a first tonight: went to add more windshield wiper fluid and my hood was frozen shut. Got it eventually.

 

LEDs today = ]

 

I used to have the metra and was annoyed by the rattle with the plastic brackets, so i reused the factory ones but had to drill a few holes to get the stereo lined up exactly how i wanted. wasn't too hard to do though. Now i have the Scosche since i did the 12+ blacked out dash center trim, my only complaint with the scosche is the profile isin't the same as the factory stereo so i had to make shims in order for my expedition essentials tpam to fit correctly.

 

Try Lock-Ease or a similar product containing graphite

 

Over the last two days i mounted my radium catch can
Then pulled the motor out in order to put my oil filter relocation on and to do a final clearance on my oil pan
Then painted my frame rails and motor mounts and then pulled my dash so i could mount my new gas pedal and pull my heater core so i can weld on an fittings to the tubes.
now just need to make a pedal plate for the gas pedal tomorrow.

 

Curious to see how this goes. Which one did you go with ?

Details?

 

It might also be that your drivers side cylinder is worn with the key and the passenger side isin't so it doesn't key correctly.

A little tedious at first, but took about 3 hours all in all. Very happy with it, especially for the first one I've done. I'm going to order one for my wife's GX.

 

Your key that you use every day might be worn down from years of use. You could try using your spare key.
My 2015 only has the option to manually unlock the door on the driver's door.

 

what led’s did you use? Was thinking about this project earlier in the week.

 

And i bet originally all you had planned was to top off the wiper fluid huh?

 

Looks good. What did you use?

I have a 2007 Tacoma to clean up the headlights on.

 

Company called GettaGrip, they have a few different ones. But really any shifter would work that has a M8-1.25 thread. I’ve seen people make them themselves cheaper with a bike grip and metal sleeve with the needed thread which is essentially all this is lol.

 

Have the same set up but with some spots yours are floods and I like it more probably might get some floods pretty soon like the look better

 

Noticed, in the heavy fog this morning, my headlights are cross-eyed. Previous owner must not have aimed them horizontally. I guess I'll be adjusting that when I get home (previously I was only concerned with the vertical cutoff).
