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

Your truck is sick. This is my trucks role model

 

Gettin new goodyear wrangler duratracs

 

Fabricated a hitch mounted support and carrier for my Hand Truck Dolly. I will post pics when completed. Still waiting for a few parts to be delivered. I got tired of having to throw the dolly on top of a load and jury rig it from falling off.....

 

installed scanguage II. little thing is pretty darn cool.

 

reinforced the tailgate

 

Did the DTRL mod...


They're freakin bright which i love.




and here's with both on..

 

i got stuck in the sand, panicked and for my first time pressed the rear diff lock... lol someone please explain what this does

 

It Locks the Rear differential.
Making it a true solid rear axle, both tires turn at the same time. Instead of the tires working separate. Its good for off road, cause i most cases if one wheel doesnt have traction the other one can.
Bad for on the street, unless driving in a straight line (drag racing)
In turning the wheels move at different speeds. the wheels on out side of the turn have to move more quickly to keep up with the with the wheels on the inside of the turn. If they didnt there would be excessive tire wear, vibration, and possible breaking of parts, especially at higher speeds.
One reason Toyota suggests that when LOCKED stay under 25mph.
And only use off road or in "slippery conditions"

 

Mike, your shit looks nice.

 

washed it.

 

Got mine dirty!

 

just washed mine pics be up

 

I went to put my grill back on the truck and dropped it, scratching the paint all over after I just paid 100 to have it painted

 

finally got my amp rack installed still needs a couple of touch ups but i have music again

 

Washed it!

 

today i put in new spark plugs and wires. bosch platinum fusion (the best)
also i took off my intake silencer and plugged up the hole. i got a lot better throttle response. I am getting ready to do the deck plate mod this week.

 

I drove it to the Glider club and back.

 

Curious, how much do the Bosch Fusion's cost? What was your mileage when you changed them out?

 

thanks! appreciate the info

 

added the horsepower reading in scanguage II. this thing is pretty freakin sweet.
