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

only 6 bucks an hour for a lift and tools included???

that is the deal of a lifetime!!!

 

Fully agree - they have full alignment rack, paint stall, 9 full bays with drive on lifts, ASE certified mechanics onsite to assist if needed etc.

Thankful for the benefits of 22 years active duty, been retired 20 years, and working as a contractor for the past 10 years

 

Put a set of DD sports in. Going from the non fog sr5 to this is an upgrade. Have to figure out the aiming when it gets dark enough.

 

I put on a used set of 255 75r 17"s that I picked up yesterday

 

Sounds to me like he paid for 32 years and counting so I’d hope they give him a deal. He earned it!

killer perk tho

 

Diode dynamics ssc2 pods reverse lights and wired the red backlight into the brakes

 

Bought a 29” ARE DCU cap in hopes of hitting the road for a month or two with my girlfriend and dog when our apartment lease is up at the end of March or beginning of April. Needs quite a bit of work before then to be able to live out of it for that long. Gonna attempt to make some bed stiffeners this weekend. The research begins

 

How did you wire them up?

 

I tapped into the tail light harness, seems to be fine. Didn’t want to run a separate relay

 

What model #smitty...what thread size

 

New Spectre fuel and water cans arrived today. Fit perfectly in the frame/mount Travis of SOB Fabrication (Ruidoso NM) built me for my swing outs

 

Man - I would kill (figuratively) for a auto hobby shop near me. Sounds like a great place for some DIY projects.

 

I doubt they are cheaper but they are better than oem. I'll post a link from Amazon. You can probably find them cheaper somewhere else Power Slot 126.44129CSR Slotted Brake Rotor https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001O97JXC?_encoding=UTF8

 

Looks sick man

 

Best kind of trip. Do as much as you can before kids. I know I did.

 

A quick afternoon project, applied thermo tech on my heat shield

 

I did the full tube and the scan gauge said it’s 13 degrees cooler on my ait, this was coming from a K&n I take without wrap and going to the afe with the rad support I take scoop as well so that would be taken into consideration

 

What temp difference is it from ambient temperature?

 

With my current intake set up before the thermo Tec, I would get 3* hotter than ambient temp if I’m constantly moving. It’s not a standard k&n set up
