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

Progress. Some camshaft scoring found

 

Ark splash guards went on without any issues. They even include extra plastic hardware!

 

5 tires mounted for in the future

 

Topped off the washer fluid.

Waiting on a bracket to be delivered so I can mount my Auxbeam switch panel.

 

Double checked all of the contents of the supercharger and other miscellaneous parts…install begins Tuesday.

 

Cleaned the truck inside & out. Topped off the power steering fluid, refilled windshield fluid, & scrubbed mats.

 

Mine is long overdue for a bath.

 

Replaced the exhaust system this weekend. Went OEM parts / Denso sensors and applied high temp paint.... we'll see if the paint extends the life.

 

Another lil trip and the TPMS light came on after a few months of it being off. Blinks for quite a while so I guess another battery died. Hoping it just goes away like last time over the winter. So annoying

 

x-runner bumper looks sick! did you go OEM or just an aftermarket bumper?

 

It’s just aftermarket. Had to find a different set of the fender arches to complete it cause I was sent stock prerunner ones so the finish is different. Tried to custom fabricate the stock ones on anyway but wasn’t secure enough. Ended up being cheaper that way so I’m okay with it for now

 

My wife got them for my Bday a couple years ago. I think she ordered them off Amazon

 

Finally got around to wrapping the B-Pillars.

 

On Saturday I picked up a new X2 Power battery. Not cheap, but I got almost 6 yrs out of the last one.
I've been having some rear end noise so I drained the oil into a clean pan let it settle and then drained it off into another pan. At least 50-75 shines in the bottom and that's in addition addition to the mound of stuff on the drain pan magnet. And after only 7500-8000 miles. Guess I'm buying a new 3rd member.

 

I patched a hole in my gas tank with JB Weld. Back in 2016 someone stole my gas by drilling a hole in my tank. I patched it with JB Weld at the time. I noticed recently that it was starting to peel off so let's see how long it lasts this time.

 

First time lasted that long? I’d have done the exact same thing.

 

I didn't do a thing, I stood there and passed my hvac buddy tools while he recharged the a/c system. Worked perfect and now I have A/C just in time for summer. Was not expecting it to be just low on refrigerant and anticipating a more difficult and expensive fix.
Good day

 

Quick render of the CMD bumper on a 2g

 

Ya. I dig that

 

Pieced together a Toyota Matrix steering wheel/air bag. I like the sporty flat bottom OEM wheel.
