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

Thanks, hopefully I can get atleast the rear together tomorrow.

 

the rake on your truck looks pretty good.(from the sig pic) but idk how it would look if front was higher.

^^ other than that I don’t like how when you load 200 pounds or more in the bed or tow a nice load the back end sags and makes the front even higher. I put weight in the bed and tow quite a bit, I like the factory rake for towing and hauling stuff. heck I would be fin if the back was 1/2” or 1” higher even.


some have asked why i have not lifted yet. I had the money for a spacer lift, but did not want a spacer lift. 1) i just wanter a better lift. 2) i did not want the truck to be “level"

 

I was poking fun. I hate that look and like you said I'd rather be higher in the rear for towing and hauling stuff.

 

yeah i know. i don’t mind the front like 1” or so higher. but if you use the bed a lot and tow a lot than it’s not ver practical. Having the rear higher is better, because than once it has some weight it sit level and not sagging as much.

Looking good Bro, be sure to post pics after there installed

 

How well did your Tacoma shoot?

 

Just changed my rear diff oil.

 

well, yesterday, but took her in the the rear brake squeal tsb. NO MORE SQUEAL!!

 

Just did the 30K service, minus the front diff and trans case. Man those drivers side plugs are a BITCH to get out!

 

Installed Wet Okie Dokies, ordered Redline hood lift and tailgate drop.

 

Did my 50k service today changed the engine oil, front and rear diff. Replaced the pcv valve, cabin air filter, upper and lower radiator hoses and the coolant. The trans case looked good so I left it be. I guess the belt will be next on the next oil change along with cleaning the K&N air filter. It rained here most of the day and would have taken the air filter forever to dry out so I didn't bother.

 

I like that.

 

Put in my OEM bed mat and a new UWS tool chest which were both delivered this morning.



Also installed intermittent wipers that came in the mail this afternoon.
Thank TW for the info and links to this easy but very welcome install and also Lowe Toyota of Atlanta for the always great prices and super fast shipping.





Also put in the console net and OEM cup holder ashtray ( coin holder ) from eBay.

 

Nice truck Mattnatti, I miss my regular cab sometimes, especially in tight parking lots. LOL!

 

Replaced the battery after 6 years on the OEM and dropped in a K&N air filter. Ready to roll.

 

I ordered some lights. New turn signals since the wife said stock are too dim when I was following her out a few nights ago. (blame the BHLM).
Will mount these signals on the trim piece under the headlights I think. They're flush mount LED motorcycle turn signals.

Plasti-dipped these. Intentionally gave them a textured look.
