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

Thanks for detailing it further. Write-up I had read in the past said we still needed the additive for the front but it makes more sense that we could probably skip it, now that you mention the ECU control. Reminded me that DAC and LSD is all mostly that brake modulation, as is the new and fresh crawl control lol.

I also already use redline so that was just supplemental as well. Seems like overkill I hear but never caused any issues so far. That’s been drained now though that I am dealing with some other actuator issues.

 

I have an 05. I feel dumb now for not getting the cable when I ordered the terminal upgrade on BF. Oh well, chalk it up to my complete ignorance of all things electrical. Thanks again!

 

Installed the Truxedo Lo Pro tonneau cover yesterday evening. Very impressed on the quality and function of the cover, and it's sleek look! It's currently 30* this morning.

 

As my dad likes to say: "Good eye!"

It's backup camera anytime button and the knob is for camera selection:

I have a set to install that has been sitting in it's box for a year now...

 

I finally checked the drains in front of the front doors. I pulled back the rubber flap to find plenty of dirt and leaves stuck in there. I got a stiff piece of wire and made a hook on the end. I pulled about a cup of debris out of each side then ran the hose in there to clean it out well. I’m glad I finally checked it out.

 

Fixed my Smittybilt 9500 XRC winch by swapping out the corroded socket connector assembly.

 

I added a 12Volt.Solutions remote starter kit today! It works great and I they gave me really great customer service the whole way through even when I had a little (self created) program issue. They answered my question even on a Sunday after what was no doubt the busiest week of the year for them! Really impressed with them!

 

She got a bath today.

 

Finally bolted on the led back-up lights for 30W of daytime. I made some brackets to tuck them up under the bumper, so they're hardly noticeable.
It's a shame no one except the annual inspection guy will ever have the opportunity to gaze upon my craftsmanship.
Definitely a successful little project.

Oh, and I stuck on one of those "old man" fisheye mirrors.

 

Replaced the Nilight 40in for Diode Dynamics stage series 42in lightbar.

 

Wired up my s8 and rock lights in the alpha rack. I like the s8 backlight as a running light in bad weather.

 

I absolutely love this picture.

I just put it on my desktop. I have so much planned for this truck lol. I have all of the materials I need, a welder... no time. My spare tire carrier (37"x12.50) is going to blow ya all away. The axle wrap is insane so a traction bar has got to be first.

 

That’s on my short list of wants! Just waiting to justify the $350 when it’s not hunting season expense time

 

I mean, we could admire them if you posted pictures here, just saying.

 

Hauled more lumber to build some adirondacks, project #2 done & dusted. Got to use a kreg hole jig, circular saw & some angled cuts on the miter saw for these

 

New wipers, filled the fluid and cleaned out the space around the cabin air intake and wipers. Added some mesh from an old gutter guard I had laying around over the cabin air filter inlet.

 

knocked out the 'fog lights anytime' mod. Super easy and reversible in seconds. Apparently my questions led to a new approach for those of us without the bed outlet...link to the post below.
