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

your just swapping the coilover???

you dont need to remove any UCA or LCA's bolts, it is easier to take and removed the UBJ connection and pull the UCA up out of the way, I would not touch the LBJ unless you absolutely need too

 

Not today but tomorrow getting this eyesore taken care of. Finally after nearly a year of it peeling off in chunks

 

I installed a yellow top after running a red top for about a year, hard to say no for a new battery less than $140..the + terminal didn't reach so I made a cable extension and electrical tap to seal it up.

lucky you I still had a pic on my phone.

 

?

 

Finished welding front bumper. Got a little mor grinding, drill a few holes, test fit, and paint. Can't wait

 

Thinking of putting my top spacer back on top of my 1.75inch strut and changing my bilsteins to 0 rather then .85 then adding a 1 inch block under my leaf pack with aal to get .65 more lift in the front and 1 in more in the back.

 

Que??? Not talking about self/full service.

A company called "Mass Air Systems" started installing pay-per-use air and water stations at our gas stations 10-15 years ago (most stations are fully self-service and have no service bays, so no need for a shop compressor).
It's basically like a vending machine. The station is not making any money off of the air and water... MAS collects the money and (poorly) maintains the units.

People bitched, so Sacramento passed a law that requires stations to offer full-service to customers with handicap tags if requested, and that they have to provide free air to paying customers. It applies to all stations, it's not a matter of some stations charge more for gas and provide free air and water.

Not all stations have the systems... there actually is a Chevron near me that still provides free air to everyone, but the chuck is occasionally broken and it takes a couple of weeks for them to fix it.

I've never seen one with a keypad.
A shell station not far from me, the clerk enables it and a pushbutton on the side can restart it a couple of times, but most of them that I've seen are not set up like that.

And walking to the front of the line will get you beaten up or followed home and your truck keyed in my neighborhood.

 

I've been pretty impressed with my 88P as well. Does all 4 tires in about 20mins after wheeling, enough to BS and have a beer with everyone.

 

Put the 1/4 inch finished plywood on the bed and on the tailgate. Why did I do this instead of a bedmat? Because that's what I've always done to my trucks and I still think it looks cool.

 

Even the 300p is overkill for my 5-lug:

Pioneer 5500bhs installed. Missed my Sirius.

 

Got a new a leaf spring pack in. Man these babies are buttery compared just having the aal stuffed into the stock pack.

 

Finished my Fluid Film application. Sorry best pics I could get at the time.

 

Nice Dakars. I'm debating between those and the Ironman springs to replace my AAL and worn out stock pack.

 

Wait till you carry some weight , they really impress then

 

^^^THIS, I am still loving mine!

 

Nice. I am planning to do this as well. Did some rust sanding and painting on my frame today. Fluid Film next.

Thanks. Don't know anything about the ironman springs, but I am really impressed by the ride on these. I expected them to feel stiff, but I find them buttery compared to the aal

right on.

 

Nice!

 

I figure this looks OK. I like to have some wood in my vehicles. Rather than just plastic and metal everywhere, this is the best I could do with the Tacoma:
