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

#Legitness

 

I’ve never really been a fan of them! People seemed to be split on keeping and removing. It seems to be a personal preference so I decided on removing.

 

Very nice! Which air deflector did you install? I think it looks great against the silver front. I've been looking to get one, but don't want anything that touches the paint.

 

Started to swap out the Pro suspension & UCA to the Kings and camburgs. Finished the drivers side, I am very happy with it. It did take a bit longer then expected to do. ( fought to remove and install the UCA bolt). I will be finish the other side on thanksgiving day.

 

That my friend is a classic good looking truck,very nice.

 

Ridge Grapplers looking strong!

that bug thing on the front i assume you mean? funny- some folks hate em- it thickened up the front appearance and matches a black skid plate i have poking up from below, and the black grill, so i dig it. got it straight off one of the Toyota dealership websites that ships- a few do, can do a simple google search. it comes with these 3M protective strips to protect the paint, nothing is a given but it looked like it would cushion it well!

 

Before: section of 3/16" aluminium sheet



After: 4 switch plate/light panels fabricated for my ARB overhead center console. Most sophisticated tool used is a hacksaw blade in a handle and lots of files ... took about 1 day of movie watching, to fabricate the 4 needed. Red LED surface mount modules incoming to mount to these - basically i'm putting a red interior light setup in, in addition to the usual white courtesy lights... why? I have no idea... just seemed like a good project idea at the time.

 

ah, so it's an OEM one then. I can get those through our favorite Toyo dealer here at the site. Thanks!

 

Loaded up my boys and hit the car wash.

 

I like the way they look

 

if you go that route be careful- the non-smoked ones have a very pronounced white strip top and bottom, depends on the look you like...

 

Installed my 700lb springs for my 6112s and wheelers super bumps while I was under there

 

What part numbers are those Kings???

 

Taco truck now with prinsu goodness!

And my HAM callsign got approved: KD7TRD!

 

King 250001-119.
Picked them up from downsouth.

 

Thanks man, truck looks good

 

clay barred it and put for sale

 

Finished the winch control box plate. Installed and sealed with caulking to avoid water

 

The ride is nice and firm feeling, not too firm where it's uncomfortable, but a solid feel.
I hardly notice the sway bar is missing. I still drive it like its there
