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

Does it matter which puck you put on top/bottom? I thought the small one was supposed go on top but i've seen almost 50/50 people do the big puck on top.

 

Looks like you could use some frame caps: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/frame-caps-by-squareone-creations.683555/

 

I think the instructions say small on top but the bigger on top gives you better support? I have a set but haven't installed them yet.

 

Nice! I've got the same setup in my garage... just waiting for some bump stops.

How do you like the ride with the new springs and shocks? What configuration did you go with on the springs?

 

I'd rather have the big puck on top for more surface area. Also matters for spacing. My fender flares are old but if I didn't have the bigger puck on top, my flares would be contacting my front bumper. There's actually a spot on either side where the flares have rubbed the powdercoat off my bumper from all the past movements.

 

Hit 50k today. After this picture of course.

What switch blanks do you need?

 

I thought about that and might be kicking myself now that I didnt. I had the stock ones moved over. I figure if the batteries go out then its no different than if I didnt move them at all. Dash light is a dash light so I will run 'em till they die I guess haha.

 

Husky floor mats, bed mat.

 

Alstrom Point is an awesome camp spot

 

New as of today....
Fuel wheels, 33 inch tires, Rough country lift of three inches.
I'm very happy with Monarch Wheel and Tire for all they have done!
I hugged my Coma on all four corners!

 

Keep an eye on your core support. I have a creeping suspicion that proper wheeling or whoops or aggressive washboard, and/or a heavier battery, and a heavy aftermarket bumper combined with the stiffer poly bushings is the cause of the cracks in my core support


This is quite a common issue with these trucks if you use it...

See this thread for examples

Needed the larger one to the left of the steering column.
I picked it up today. I'm moving/cleaning up my mess of switch placement and I'm also going to be making new wiring harnesses for the switches.
It's amazing what ideas you come up with when you're in the shower.

 

Ok, I think I have a few around if you needed them

 

put in my new spec d headlights and decided to use tint vinyl on the tails. had a terrible fuck up that cost me the whole roll. nightshade it is

 

That top washer and the core support might create some squeaking because of metal on metal. Might want to remove the top washer in the future

 

Installed a new to me US Offroad bumper earlier in the week. Washed and ceramic coated today.

 

Begun the process of contemplating the Four Wheel Campers Project M or Super Pacific X1 campers. No need to order anytime soon... but starting to get the itch for one of these wedge/camper shell combos.

 

Making some room for more activities.

 

Nice work. MDF soaks up resin like a sponge - I've built a few things with it and brushed on epoxy resin and then, when it's cured, sand it down before painting. Makes a nice tough long lasting part.
