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

Pics please!!

 

Replaced the "Lower Engine Oil Pan" dropped in fresh Mobil-1 in the motor & rear-end. Also changed the trans fluid. Before anyone asks about the drain pan... The previous owner was very loyal to a quicke lube (they also make peanut butter) and they FUBAR'D the threads and their fix which I found out the hard way was to use an oversized drain plug. Last oil change I chased the threads 2 times and continued to pull threads. So now I have a brand new Lower section of the drain pan, not too hard, but the 6" pro-comp made it a bit tougher than it could've been.

 

nice lookin truck. really like the jack mount! could you give me a little info onn it please. how much did it cost? whered you get it? would it work like if i mounted it on the side of my toolbox? like under the handles

 

Here is my 98 Taco almost finished. The last thing going in will be a ARB rear locker. .
I'll put the rest of the pic's on the next post.

 

Rest of the pic's. The seats came from a wrecked SR5; they bolted right in.
Happy Holidays.

 

very nice lookin truck. i want those bumpers for mine. how much did you pay for the front? and how much did you pay for the back? and whered you get them?

 

ok thanks! i just found some on ebay for $29.95 and $10 for shipping. yeah i didnt even think abt the washer thing! that'd suck if my tool box warped out where the mounts are. thanks for the info!

 

What have I done to my truck today;

I slammed on my brakes, and dropped it down to low gear because so many people were pulling out in front of me coming back from Fry's where I coincidentaly went to w/o my wallet.

So basically, I beat the shit outta my truck for NOTHING>

 

The front is a stock item from ARB it cost $973
The rear was a custom build from Iron Pig Off Road in Fredericksburg VA
I paid $1200 for both bumper and rock sliders.
Check out their web site they are into some crazy stuff.

 

i put gas in my truck tonight..lol

 

I put 1180 miles on my truck (well over Monday and Tuesday) driving from Minnesota to Texas. Got through three and a half seasons of Seinfeld on my Kenwood 8120!

 

Did the "Deck plate" Mod to my truck today.
I bought the plate & hardware from West Marine, RTV from autozone, got a B&D rotary tool from WalMart for $20. (I needed one anyways)

Took about an hour.

Now, I gotta go for a ride.

 

^^^^^ deckplate mod is awesome...congrats!!


today.....went to install my new slotted rotors and hawk pads.....wrong damn rotors!! getting that squared away now. other than taking my brakes apart for no reason.....................i took my corners lights off and am painting the trim black......gonna match the black grille that i get off ebay!!

 

I added some mud to mine last night. Sorry gf wouldn't get out to take pics or film, said it was too cold.

36 degrees, raining and mud just below the door.

 

did a little rock crawling... nothing broke

 

Mine is at the dealer for a wheel bearing. Took a pic last week of its current state. When i get my new add ons for the 09 ill post more.

 

Love that grill! That's exactly what I want to do with mine... The old school look! (If you can see it behind all my lights! )

I got my sub enclosure from Marv, carpeted it, stuck it in the cab and put in the subs (not hooked up yet) Saturday. I sound deadened all my doors today and plan to install all my door speakers and wire up my amps tomorrow.

 

looks great man!!! i gotta find one of those emblems to black out and put in the center of my tailgate. i think it'd look pretty good!

 

badass man!!
