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

Cleaned all 6 bed bolts and hit them with a fresh dose of anti-seize. Noticed the middle 2 bolts were far more stubborn to remove than the front and back ones.

 

I FINALLY completed some real mods, not just the ones that are purely for aesthetics. I am finally finding the time and funding to get around to the upgrades I’ve been putting off for years.

2 weeks ago today, I paid a little visit to @Speed Freek to get my install and CMC done, including new wheels and (gently used) tires. Jason is an awesome guy and his work was exceptional. I highly recommend him if you’re local.

Yesterday I installed the Car Solutions RFCC and a Natika front camera. No more guess work when pulling forward into tight spaces. Just need to dial in the camera location before I fully mount it.

 

New Spyder headlights. Fogs later on today.

 

New 265/75R16’s Defenders. Replaced 265/70/16’s. 70K on those. 97K still on crappy suspension.

 

Thanks, I'd sanded & polished 'em before. The cracks are what finally led me to replace them this time around.

 

For those who have done the UNI-filter mod, you might want to check the filter. I was swapping mine back to stock for the recall and found this:

 

How old was yours?

 

I think that's the cleanest CMC I've seen

 

Looks like it was overtightened.

 

Harbor freight jack stands

 

That seems to be the consensus, which is why I decided to take my truck to him in the first place. He's done thousands of them and all the photos on his install page look like that. Before I knew what a CMC was, I had no idea what to look for in the photos because I thought it was all stock!

 

Finally got a shell! I was promised it in 4-5 weeks. Only took 8. Haha

 

Sounds like my Fox shocks and struts, ordered the first week of July and they showed up yesterday.

 

Yup, front trimmed about 2.75 inches, rears about 2.25. Pretty much this thread. Made the wooden thing with a screw for even lines. Jigsaw for fender, dremel for flares https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/fender-trimming-so-many-people-so-little-info.401911/

also, post #160 on my build thread goes over it a bit https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2015-sport-build.632891/page-8

 

Finally came in. Wet Okole seat covers for all future wet okoles!

 

2-3 years maybe?

 

May have been, but still...

 

Arb locker install today. Time to start breaking more CVs.

 

Nice garage floor you got there.

 

Replaced old sway bar links with Mevotech Supreme links
