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

yes! inquiring minds, and all that. what's the story

 

Finally finished my bed set up, got a nice hi lift jack, handle keeper and base plate for Christmas. Havent done anything or bought anything for my truck in awhile so this felt good. Still need to learn how to use it and properly maintain it, as well as buy a slider adapter. Merry Christmas yall!

 

It was 56 and raining today which melted all the ice and snow. This was the best option I had to get some last-second preservative on the frame to buy time for a proper strip in the spring, because it ain't getting warmer til March.

Got all up under it w/ pressure washer carriage and also a gun for detail areas and hit all seams, joins, and crannies in the frame with Amsoil HDMP. I had used the HDMP previously on the new suspension hardware and in the suspension knuckles on the frame, mostly as an experiment to see if it would do anything to help disassembly after harsh winters, and also to see how the HDMP behaved.

I'm pretty confident that this stuff ran well into the places I was concerned about and based on how it's sticking to me, I have extreme confidence that this stuff isn't going to wash off or even really pressure wash off. We'll see.

 

New tailgate insert from @mountainhatch . Merry Xmas to all

Ford has already thought of it unfortunately and so has chevy

 

Well, it's still a brilliant idea. My mom said so.

 

Worked on my storage box. Time for carpet. I tucked the seat belts behind the trim and no rattles, so far.

 

I wouldn't mind an easy down on my tailgate but I would straight up hate a powered gate, especially if it was power only.

 

Added a lot more lighting. BD S2 pros on the rear of my Prinsu. BD S2 pros flush mounted into the sides of my Prinsu, and BD rock lights in the wheel wells. Almost done with the wiring, can’t wait to see how everything looks.

 

Amazing gift from my wife, built by my Father In-law.

 

Pulled my 3/4" spacers from the front wheels to keep my new 285s out of the cab mount until I can redo my cmc

 

Merry Christmas to me! Thanks @HomerTaco! This looks great!

 

You gotta use the windshield protectant for them to work.

 

Finished up the rear bar with frame supports and got it installed. With the mat trimmed it looks clean AF if I say so myself.

edit: the tent looks crooked but it’s just a weird optical illusion because of the angle of the picture.

 

Why yes it does!

 

Merry Christmas to me!
General Grabber ATX 285-75-16's and Vision Manx 2 Overland rims. I'm so excited about how this came together. +0 offset = 0 rubbing

 

Added a Vibrant vacuum manifold to clean up all the t-fittings i had accumulated

Those look great!

 

Thanks! It makes my wife's little subaru look so little.
