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

I can do a shell but not a truck yet.

 

Those covers are great! Looking for a custom set - any chance you can share the link?

 

Anyone know if a shift knob from a 4runner or tundra will fit a taco? I don't see why they would be any different but websites are telling me it wouldn't fit. I want to buy this but want to make sure before I do.

$89 TOYOTA PTR57-34141-02 TRD Shift Knob (A/T Black), 1 Pack

So ' Car clear' is the spray product that was used?

 

@ayshiri, Here you go. I have had mine for approximately 5 years and holding up great

Got the truck at the end of March and just getting started on doing some work to make it my own.

Finished the install of my CustomCarGrills mesh and I think it came out pretty decent.

 

These aftermarket or did you do the BHLM?

 

Where they extended length springs? What is the projected total front lift expected to be?

 

The T4R will fit. Unsure on the Tundra.

 

No. They are just 700# vs the 600# they come with.
Going for 2.5" to 2.75".

 

Picked up my smittybilt gen 2 xl RTT from 4 wheel parts. Super excited to get it home and unpackaged/mounted! Hopefully nothing inside is damaged from the look of the box it came in...

 

Thats what my box looked like when the guy rolled it off the truck. Fingers crossed its not damaged, its an exciting day for sure.

 

I had to remove my RCI skid when I did my oil change this past weekend. I have a 4 cyl. and removing the oil filter would've made a mess if the skid plate was in the way.

 

Bro! For like seven seconds you made me second guess what I drained and filled! Ha!

 

HA! This reminds me of a problem I had with my very first car, a 1977 Toyota pickup. The front bumper was bent all to hell so I got an aluminum bumper from I think a Volkswagen and made it fit. I installed "fog/driving" lights to it and no matter what I did, they wouldn't work.
I didn't know at the time that you couldn't use an aluminum bumper as ground, I was only running power to the lights and couldn't figure out why the lights didn't work.

 

looks great, i’m going to need to sand and clearcoat mine soon. thanks for the info on the sandpaper

 

I finally got these puppies on. I know I know. They aren’t the 2.5’s but they will be plenty for me and I’m excited just for the upgrade. I also added the wheelers superbumps.

 

yikes... How did it end up looking?

 

Did some customization on the new Taco! Started out with trying my hand at some vinyl wrapping to do away with the silver in the cab. It was a good starter lesson for sure, and I only wasted half of the 1’x5’ strip lol.

Swapped out the TRD Sport logo with some custom Rick and Morty themed decals from an Etsy seller. Probably very few people will understand it, but I love it.

Finished off applying plasti-dip to the emblems to take the chrome off.

Loving this truck more and more every day.
