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

I’d be interested to hear how it goes, it sucks you have to buy them in pairs. I just replaced the driver side bearing and hub assembly in my wife’s altima, hardest part was rust.

 

True, its only my front left that supposedly is going out. Can I just plastic wrap the right side assembly and store it till that needs replacing or does the grease dry out or something?

 

Good question, it imagine you’d be good as I think it’s wear that breaks the grease down, could be wrong tho. not sure why ya can’t buy one, there’s folks that change both sides at time but I don’t think that’s necessary.

 

Installed the Hooke Road rear bumper. Got a heck of a deal for $300 on Facebook and had to buy. Here’s a before and after. Plan to buy red and black D Rings and get some Rigid Radiance pods with red backlight for the bumper pods.

 

I just bought a 2000-2003 honda accord stainless still clutch line to do a accumulator delete on the truck.

 

Replaced left & right wheel bearing/hub assembly.

 

yup, need to check it more often

 

LOL surprised you were getting any air to go through that

 

Not me - but looks like somebody took a detour. Seems like they are "ok", but that truck doesn't look too good:

We don't get much snow in Seattle, but when we do...

 

Frame looks in good condition though

 

Vultures.....all of you....

 

Thanks, I like it too! Now I just need to get them hooked up. 100% chance of rain again tomorrow is not helping things. Lol

 

Picked up these king shocks 2.5 16” from local mArketplace seller for my spring under.

 

Black steering wheel badge. One step closer to getting rid of all of the chrome. The last piece now is the rear bumper

 

New color match door handles and tailgate handle. And new step rails

 

Took photos comparing a before and after adding auxiliary reverse lights. Camera exposure locked at T 3.1, 1/60th shutter, 1600iso. Both photos were taken at 10m or 33' 9" from the house. 10 meters is a standard measurement distance that lighting products are measured at.

I'm sorry the first photo sucks and you cant see the beam on the ground, these lights kind of suck.

Respond if you have any questions or want to know how to wire up some reverse lights!

Here are screenshots of the matching camera settings retrieved.


This photo was not taken at the same camera settings, it's for a color temperature comparison and shows positioning of the lights.

 

Finally decided to get 33s!
Now to trim fender, chop cab mount. I noticed immediately how badly I'll need to re-gear, but silver lining is the noise reduction from my old duratracs. Hope these ATX's will perform on the trail

 

Which wheels are those? Looking good.

 

My RevTek diff drop kit arrived. Hopefully it gets installed this week.

What's the torque spec on the 2 large bolts? It came with more bolts and spacers than what the instructions mention, are they for the skid plate?

 

That's going to make a big difference for headlight performance
