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

Let see some pics!

 

Which part? Here’s an action shot, and here’s another before I left yesterday. I don’t have any pics of the inside yet since I’m not done.

 

I am not either but I bought a

$91 Viair 88p Portable Compressor Kit (12V, 120 Psi, Forup to 33" Tires)

Viair 88p that I keep behind my back seats in case of need. Figured I could use that to control inflation while out on the road. I have heard pretty good things from ride-rite owners.

 

That looks sickkkkk

 

Lift with dakars would def support that weight no problem

 

the white/tan lines is the actual coating. they don't spray the frame like some people think. just go along the seems on the inside of the frame only. not sure what that's going to do but have to have it done if you want to be covered in the future.

 

Im not sure the rats wud live there

Post some after pic's

 

Anybodyblnow what size are the ifs skid bolts? I have lost mine.

 

M8x1.25

 

How long?

 

M8-1.25x20mm I believe.

FYI, from what I've found searching for them for my 4runner (same bolt), is that the OEM replacement is expensive but one from the hardware store is much cheaper but will use a size 13 socket and not a 12 like oem. So you will probably just have to deal with that. Or replace them all. The OEM ones are self tapping and strip easily.
You can get a pack of 20 from McMaster carr for like $12 and then they will all be size 13 and all be better bolts.

 

Haven't "done" anything yet today besides order a whole bunch of stuff for my upcoming 90k service...

 

Very impressed with the sound and power gains. Mid-range and top end very noticeable difference. Throttle response is much more better, seems to rev much freely now. Gets up to 100kmh with ease now. Only problem now is, P0137 code, found the leaks where the y-pipe meets the stock manifolds. Next year I’m definitely doing the URD SPEC-Headers with a tuner just don’t know which one yet lol!

 

New intake manifold gaskets, head gaskets and knock sensor.

I did get to paint match my grille before all that went down.

 

How many miles on your truck?

 

@Gen2Tacoma 165k

 

Mine only had the 4 holding up the factory skid & needed 2 to hold up back of pelfreybilt skid. & I lost them lol. Just want to get 1 of my skids in place. Currently my truck has no skid at all

 

I used Killmatt 50ml from Amazon.

 

2.5” equal length y-pipe into 3” piping.

 

COSTCO is having a Tire sale $150 off a set of 4 Michelin tires. The Chinese one that CarMax put on my Tacoma at 27L to sell are close the the wear bars at 55K. While I have no complaints about the tires. Couldn't pass up a chance on the Michelin. Ordered Michelin X LT All Season will be here in 10 days or so have appointment to have them installed on the 28. $731 installed. At age 78 those may be the last set I buy for any of my cars. All have new tires this year. Love to know the full story of this truck, was in perfect condition with one scratch and all recalls done by previous owner it still smelled like a new truck, but it was missing floor mats, manual, bed rail hold downs, Trailer brake harness (has tow package) Have the Marony sticker and all service records so I know what was there originally It still had the TRD Beadlocks and new Leaf Springs in back. It went through the auction so I think some were along the way someone replaced or added stuff from my truck to theirs. Wondered what happened to original owner. Carfax is clear so it is a puzzlement.
