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

Damn I need to learn to paint

 

I think a bit of this is labor, as the roof rack has to come off, but yeah, it ain't cheap!! The whole estimate for the roof painting and the dent repair and repainting the right side of the bed is about $1135.00 !

 

Great

 

It actually isn't too bad. I've never calculated my mpg difference between capped and capless, but I haven't noticed an excessive difference in fill up frequency. It will most likely change a little from that 17.4 though, but shouldn't by much.

 

The 17.4 includes a few trips pulling the camper. Also, winter-time gas mileage drops a lot!

 

Oh you should be good to go then!

 

I’ve always liked the look of that tie down rail

 

Got my overkill bed stiffeners welded up today. All I had was 1/4 steel so that is what I used. I will get the holes drilled and then paint them with spray can bed liner before final mounting.

 

Some stuff showed up today!

 

@TOP TACO

Hah!
Hey, now you know how long it'll take for your next denial - er, uh, I mean approval and notice to come wait in a physical like for hours!

 

Finally got around to greasing my SPC Light Racing UCAs for the first time. Doh! Thanks to @JaCado for the outro image!

Where are you guys getting these eye lids at?? I'm thinking of getting some for my SWB!

 

Installed this today (picture was taken before the install). Now I don’t have to worry about forgetting my radio everytime I go wheeling with buddies.

 

I got the same switch... and tried to wire it up using the fusible link that was provided with my lights. Unfortunately, my switch melted!! I ordered another, and was told to ensure I use a relay in my wiring setup in order to ensure there is not so much voltage going to the switch. Did you do this?

 

Installed ditch lights an rago ditch brackets

 

Got my cheapo LED bar sealed with silicone sealant, hoping it gives me 6-12 months, anything more a I’ll be happy.
