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

Hood struts, under hood LED’s and new speakers all around. Was going to pull the trigger on a new head unit last week and held off. Found out Thursday my pay is getting cut for next 3 months, so no new toys for a little while.

 

Truck looks good B, well done!

Dang, post some pics and hang tough!

 

Took a look at the drums today. 120k. Was in a hurry so didn’t get a good measure with my cheap micrometer. Not one intended for drum brakes. What do you guys think.

 

Removed the camper shell today, for the summer, and to make a few mods..
Plus I get to do a little yard flexing, backing up to my side gate.
..been awhile since I ran without a topper. Feels so different.

 

I would ride them out. Adjust them in reverse if you need to.

 

Great Photo,, The fastest color & an Access cab, Very Nice!

 

Swapped out the chrome side rails for 3rd gen Predator steps, and removed the chrome badges.

 

I used the other linked you posted and added them to my cart for 279. Did you get front and rear?

 

wow sorry, I am extremely late on this. I took out the battery and covered the fuse box with a trash bag, and made sure not to spray water directly into the alternator. I rinsed, sprayed degreaser very generously everywhere and let it sit for a bit. Just rinsed and dried.

 

Added 1.25” spacers on the rear so they match the front from the spindle lift. Then added a stubby antenna and put on a rear brake line relocation kit.

 

Added a 3 rocker switch panel to the center console next to the useless cup holder. Its tough using a dremel cutting through a curved surface, but i made it work. The panel isnt flush against the olastic. So may add something underneath the corner so its flush. Time to get some more switches

 

It's a side gig. 1 of many. I buy boats, sell boats, trade boats, part out boats, repair my boats and others boats, sell used boat parts, and fix up and resale boats.

Right now I'm fitting a boat trailer to a specific boat project that I have. This one will be resold once the whole project is done. It was 90* today and I'm tired AF. I got a pretty good sunburn.


I either own or am half owner of 7 boats, I think it's 7. Lol.

I also work part time at a friend's offroad shop, anything that involves DC electrics except for winches, the full time guys do the winches.

I also do car stereo and car alarm installs for friends and for patient people.

I also do consignment sales, pretty much anything. Do you want to buy a sandrail? Lol.

I'm also getting back into eBay sales again. Over 2500 positive transactions. 3 negatives I believe, but they were long ago.

 

Finally got around to installing the VLED Triton v6 DRLs/Front Turn Signals. Completely drowns out my Diode Dynamics sidemarker LEDs, but I like how my front end looks with the DD SS3 Sports.

 

Not today but in the last few weeks.
Changed the plugs, I bought the truck about a year ago so didn't know when they were last done. Turns out they were original...160,000 miles.
Denso's were at about .050 and NGK"s were about .075

Got the dealer to change out the Ujoints and carrier bearing and rebalance for driveline vibration. Dealer covered cost under Customer Support Program.

Got some 3rd gen rims off OfferUp for $150, and had them mounted up.

 

Great spot for switches!

 

Awesome! Now I know where my new switches are going!

 

Spent the afternoon getting my CMC done! Thanks for the great work @JimSnell!

 

It was good to meet ya David, was good times!







I hate welding over POR-15.

 

Are your fogs LED?

 

So CHEAP!!
