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

So I probably did this 70% correctly.
But I put in a lot of NOICO sound deadening and NOICO Red on the door.
It sounds amazing opening and shutting it!

I'm more into keeping the truck cool rather than the sound quality. Being an Army Engineer made me pretty hard of hearing.

 

Looks like if you drive fast enough over a bumpy road you will lose it on its own. Is it bent or just hanging there?

 

I bought my current truck in Feb. It had some steering wheel shimmy when I would brake - new rotors and pads fixed it, rotors were super warped.

Last week the shimmy came back.... but brakes are still brand new. Im thinking its a ceased brake piston Any suggestions?

 

Truck looks great bud!! I like the red letters out on the tires!

 

If you didnt heat cycle the new brakes properly they can warp almost immediately. I replaced stockers with StopTechs and didnt heat cycle the new rotors properly and they are slightly warped. Started feeling wobble after 2-3 weeks of install too. I have just accepted it at this point cause its not overly bad at highway speed but noticeable.

 

I believe it, they are as wide as a semi! Which are required to have marker lights. LoL

 

Probably would cost a lot for me being on east coast

 

Law requires anything over 80" wide to have 3 light markers, Raptor is 86". Luckily they aren't seen as a commercial vehicle so no state boy is gonna care with bigger fish to fry.

 

I could be wrong, but I think it's a flat rate. Just go onto Coastaloffroad.com and put your zip code in to see.

 

It’s bent, I need to get the frame straightened.
I got rear ended a while ago and it bent my tow hitch and bumper bracket

 

Did you not get an insurance pay out to get you a spiffy steel bumper?

 

Unfortunately no, the adjuster wouldn’t total it either.

 

And why not? No to obviously damaged??

 

No idea. I requested a different adjuster too.
So I’ve just dealt with it for three years now

 

Lol that's exactly why. I think the Raptors are something like 2" over the width line that requires those lights. At least Ford made them something cool that's widely coveted by others.

 

That's stupid. Did @ least allow you have it fixed? Hitch still line up?

 

Went on a little trip into VA yesterday. Was supposed to be a 1.5 hour detour to meet @Silveryoda to buy parts. But then my wife and little girl wanted to visit the ocean and wellllllll that meant a hell of a drive.

got home at 2 am this morning. But my kids and wife were happy with the weekend trip so it’s all good.

I definitely need a better stance on this truck!

 

What bed rack you running?

 

voodoo. Just bought it yesterday. That was my reason to go into VA originally lol

 

Right on... saving up for tires atm but have retro rebuild & custom built rack in plans if I ever have some free time. Work & gf seem to occupy 99% of my time lol
