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

Thanks. 90s coming through. And I like the polished look from my banshee days haha and VW

 

i grabbed the cheapest one i can find on ebay and made sure it came with the letters. gonna have to try a different kind of weather stripping though

 

Oh, you used THEIR weather stripping? The specific one I bought to replace it

Universal Z-Shape Trim Car Door Rubber Seal,Door Edge Guards Weatherstrip Hollow for Car Truck Motor Protector 33Ft(10M)

appears to be out of stock, but

$12 ESUPPORT 157" 4M Z Shape Car Door Window Trim Edge Moulding Rubber Weatherstrip Seal Strip Auto Vehicle

this one looks similar enough to probably do the job. I can't help you with clip fitment. I just made it work years back.

 

I was looking for a white dual cab. They were out of my price range at the time. Found this at a local used car place for $12,000.
Short wheel base comes in handy off-road.

 

Replaced factory plugs today at 191,000. The gap on the old plugs is .075”. I’d say they were due.

 

Denso and NGK. Most likely original plugs.

 

I would say so. Bought the truck with 40,000 miles. I totally forgot that I’d never changed the plugs. I haven’t had any trouble, just figured it was probably time.

 

So what you are saying is I should probably change mine since I haven't since I bought it with 87k on it and I'm now at 170k?

 

I know there wasn’t much left of mine.Definitely an easy job.

 

There is a spark plug changing thread for second gens on Tacoma World....

 

It never hurts to research a project before you get started.

 

Finished up my diy prinsu rack.

 

4.88 gears officially broken in! Diff fluid replaced.

Don’t make fun of my work area lol…asphalt was hot!

 

Added some nice Auxbeam Spot Flood Combo fog lights to my ARB Bumper!

 

sorry, spot/flood/ or combo are not SAE J583 fog lights

 

Thats obvious since they are spot/flood. These will be used for when I offroad my vehicle.

 

Sound deadening was done a long time ago but. I thought I would share this now. Had to take the panel off for a raddle and it’s fixed now but thought I would share some photos. Not my best job at all but for the door card I just used whats left of it. Also to mention the floor roof and back wall is done to.

 

If you haven't already, I'm paranoid because I've owned auxbeam lights, at least run a light bead of rtv around the glass and enclosure where they meet. They should be using rubber gaskets but often those get mangled on assembly.

You can also take them apart and inspect the gasket but that's more work
