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

That looks like @glorifiedwelder old truck. Beautiful find! Happy birthday.

 

I did that once, bought an off-road race car for a Christmas present to myself.
Real nice truck you got there.

 

Happy Birthday!

 

Was just about to say that, that rig always made me moister than an oyster

 

Why would he part with it?

 

You don't know. He built this sweet 3rd gen. Chrome is the new black. JK.

PUMPKIN SPICE TACO

 

He sold it back in January but this is what he said on his instagram

How dare you even jokingly imply he had anything to do with this abomination

 

That looks like a 14 year olds wet dream baby of a firetruck and AutoZone's chrome isle.

 

cleaning truck and noticed this, maybe rodents any ideas?

 

I think you had or have a mouse or 2 in there. Check your cabin filter next they might have made a home in there with that material.

 

Got rid of my chrome grill and dipped my badge….looks so much better

 

On my 2013 regular cab, I replaced the exhaust pipe with the resonator and catalytic converter and both O2 sensors because the converter was broken inside and rattling. Easy enough job.

 

I think I have figured it out. I found this hose was disconnected while looking around the engine bay. I’m not sure what it is however I pushed it back down on the post (or whatever the correct term is). I then cleared the code and have driven it for 2 days, 100+ miles, and the check engine light has not come back on.

 

Made some more progress with my 3rd gen fiberglass conversion lol

 

Hell yeah dude! That could be definitely causing the issue you were having. Cheers!

 

I am looking to Fluid Film my frame and everything else metal underneath. This is my first time doing this. For you guys out there that Fluid Film regularly, are there any tips or tricks you could share. Is there anything underneath I should not spray?

Also, about how many cans should I start with? Based on some of what I've seen it looks like 6 cans might do it.

 

I woolwax my truck but I have a compressor, so I'm using a spray gun and canisters. I use about 3/4-1 canister on the bottom of the truck running around 75psi. The only things you want to avoid spraying are directly onto electronics (in the engine bay) and brakes, otherwise go wild, it's just lanolin grease.

 

Thanks. Do you put your truck up on jack stands or is it easy enough to get everything without them?

 

My ‘07 has had a nasty habit of snapping hardware lately, and I attempted a fix on my taillight housing.


Testing out this product; it’s basically glue in play-dough form.

I was impatient and didn’t want to wait the hours of set time with the taillight dangling so I tightened it back into place to set. I’ll check it again this weekend and let it cure in place dangling down before tightening first, if needed.

 

The lift on my truck runs about 1.5" on 265/75 R16s - I can shimmy around everywhere I need to be, but again, since I use the spray gun I also have a couple of attachment hoses that makes life infinitely easier when you're spraying inside tube metal. So you might need more clearance with the cans since I think you'll lack a 360* spray tip.

Illustrative purposes for the clearance that is enough for me.
