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

Got my mini me out and adjusted the front coilovers to remove some of the rake I had. Then took the time to re-adjust my back and show my son a little more about the truck.

 

I finally hand washed and clay barred today ! Put some Chemical Guys White light polish and sealant on then topped it off with Turtle Wax Ceramic wax spray . Smooth and shiny .

 

Putting my summer wheels back on this week also .

 

Camped outside of Sedona and rode some of the best trails in all of AZ. IF YOU HAVENT HEARD ME SAY IT YET - MY 5:29 GEARS ARE SO FREAKING POWERFUL AND IDEAL EVEN ON LONG HAUL HIGHWAY CRUISES AT 74MPH ON 35’s!! See last 2 pics for real-time vitals while 74MPH on the I-17

 

Did a mediocre job of cleaning the engine bay

 

Gave the racks a once over, cleaned and waxed the roof of the cap and the cabin and installed heated Clazzios.

 

Drove it to race weekend. That's all. Also fuck Firestone, they did an absolute terrible job on my alignment

 

You may have to cut a piece of the cover. Mine was too long when I went to install it.

 

Can you share a link? I have no idea which model to look for. Thanks.

 

Made my rear wheel well liners and installed the flares. I’ll install the liners next weekend after I figure out fender supports.

I also deleted the anti-sway bar because the tires were rubbing on it at full lock. (I was already thinking of removing it anyway).



I like the tire poke

 

Breaking down the front end. IFS is for the birds.

 

New autism pull tab for the winch. The bumper, winch and, lights are all new too but just didn't do them today.

New Brute Force Fab HC Rear w/ Swing out too.

 

Rims, tires, and cap in one day. Super happy after waiting and saving.

 

looks awesome. How hard were these to install?

 

not crazy hard... I have a bad shoulder so it took longer and was a bit more painful than it needed to be. There are some tricks that helped along the way. Laying them out in the sun for a bit helped - they are tight but I think that’s what makes them look so good.

 

Bought some old man emu leaf springs and installed them right away.

 

Nice. I have the same bumper on order. Hoping it shows up in about 4 to 6 weeks.

 

This weekend did 5 qts of Mobil 1 oil and a Toyoya filter. Also finally got the Fumoto valve installed on about the 3rd or 4th oil change since I bought the damn thing. Also did the front diff fluid and swapped to the Lexus drain plug.
5 tire rotation and greased the driveline. Looks like one of my new lower ball joints might already be starting to go bad after only about 10,000 miles.

 

Mine showed up a few days early but the winch took a few weeks longer than expected. At least Road Armor communicates extremely well!
