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

Thanks. Yes it's 3/16"
Drawing it up is half the fun though, wouldn't want you to miss out!

 

Ahoy There Tacoma World.

Old St Nick dropped off a set of BFG AT KO2 - 265/75

Have about 200 miles on them and they are as quite as the stock rugged trails that come on the TRD OR.

They fill out the wheel wells nice.

 

I also added some steel to bumper.

I have a Fab 4 bumper with a 9,000. lb Warn winch. The Bumper had two large openings on both sides of the bumper to access the winch.

These were perfect slots for a branch to take out the radiator. Not sure if anyone else had this problem.

I took some diamond plate and cut it to size to cover the openings. A little high temp paint and drilled out some bolt holes so I can still access and were good to romp.

Little trick I figured out. If you have to cut steel into a weird parallelogram shape with different angles. I stole some plato from my kids and mashed it into the corners that I was trying to make the plate fit. Then used the plato as a template to transfer the angles onto the diamond plate. I am new to cars and auto body, first time mechanized (a plumber by trade) but it came out perfect.

 

Took a ride to the local canyon...

 

Bought 4 Wheels and tires from 4 runner $350.00 and did them over.

 

Finally hit 100K on my 05

 

Wheres this at? Trabuco?

 

Sure Ill sell them. I didn't notice anything wrong with them at all, but they are about 6 yrs old. The rear Billies are only 1 year old and still in great shape. Not sure what you guys were talking about when saying the billies wont fit ? If you're interested though, make me an offer. Id prefer to sell the whole set front and back. The front coil overs retail for $600 and the rear 5100's retail for $200.

 

Yea Trabuco, Holy Jim, It was closed at the first gate but the trails off the side across the creek and rocks were nice and muddy. Plus there is a 2 1/2 foot deep water hole to go thru.

 

Oh nice! I haven't seen water like that there in years but then again, I haven't been there in years. Still rutted out?

 

I washed her

 

Ordered some 16x8 Method NVs and Cooper Discoverer ATP 265/75/16 tires!

 

Thats what came On the rims I bought .

 

Nice, what paint color did you use?

 

BHLM in progress... Also whoever designed that third bolt on the headlight housing inside the fender should be fired.

Of course my phone blurs only the tire in a picture highlighting my new tires



And can confirm: no rub with 265/75/16 tires

 

I've never seen a pic where it was all in focus except one section was blurry.
