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

Sure it’s fixable if you wanna drop a new frame in it. The left front frame rail is back about 10 inches no way to fix that. I wouldn’t even have to write an estimate on that I just total it and be done.

 

Installed a slimline bumper, opened, cleaned and resealed pass headlight. Relocated s/c coolant pump to make room for a winch

 

It was time for new tires, so I found some 3rd gen wheels for cheap to toss on there while swapping already. Old wheels were plastidipped black about 5years ago and looked really tired. Started getting quotes to powdercoat them and ended up just getting the 3rd gen wheels for less than powdercoat.

 

Got my truck back. Broke the rear end. Went with a rebuild. Didn't opt for a re gear, however I did go for an after market LSD. After driving compact cars and such. I feel like I'm driving a monster truck

 

Today I replaced my struts, mounts, and shocks. Also installed a Pro-Comp leveling kit with and add a leaf.

 

Which LSD did you go with?

 

I hate to sound like this, but I didn't ask for details. I do know it's a clutch mechanism. I'll have to go back and ask, however I do trust I got what I paid for.

 

Where did you guys order from?

 

Where’d you get that bumper from? looks killer

 

2014 Tacoma SR5 Double Cab..... removed nerf bars, Tinted windows all the way around, just purchased 3.5" Suspension Lift, 285/70/17 Falken WildCat A/T's, Raceline 17x9 with 0 OffSet

 

My truck has a factory limited slip and I gotta say it's the best functioning limited slip I've ever owned as it's really quick to realize the other rear tire is slipping.

 

Over the weekend I was able to finish deadening and then close cell foam on the floor. It was still cold this weekend so I was running the truck most of the time to keep it somewhat warm in there. It says you shouldn't apply in less then 60 deg but it still went on with no issues but what a PITA. I still need to do the back wall and C pillars for now then I can build my rear platform.

Also took it for a short drive and my drive shaft vibe is way worse! I crawled under there and I guess after sitting for a week the u joint totally gave up now. Going to replace it tonight.

 

Who's products for deadening?

I need to do this, always like to see pics from others. Helps me plan.

Thanks for the picture.

 

Installed interior LEDs last night (dome, map, and mirror lights). Sooo much better.

 

I got 2 boxes of each and used almost one full box of the 80 and about 3/4th a box of the 150 on the floor. I 2 boxes of each should be enough to do almost the whole truck. I'm going to do the ceiling and doors later this year.

Southern style off road.

 

I think a picture failed to upload

 

Ordered my C4 fab hybrid bumper. Since I have a prerunner that doesn’t actually drive on anything rougher than washboard or dry, slightly rutted roads, may just get blocks for now for a cosmetic lift—then replace the shocks with coilovers when they finally die. Trucks gotten stuck just once, and airing down rolled me right out, so I’m not stressed about clearance.

 

I have that same seat cover, it's great. Has protected my rear seats from the dog and the kids (constantly dropping food or jumping the the truck with tree sap on their pants lol).

One thing I will say is that if you machine wash it, that rubberized backing tends to come off a little bit with each wash. That being said, I've washed mine 5-6 times so far and it's still holding up well, no plans to replace it anytime soon.
