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

I did my chrome grill moulding with a vinyl wrap. Had a local window tint shop do the work. It took a total of 70 minutes, and that was removing the grill assembly, vinyl wrapped, and reinstall grill assembly. $20 for the vinyl $70 for install.

 

Did you try once those orange escapers ?
What was your experience.?
I tried them twice in very bad conditions, with no results.
Sure, when watching on youtube, it works well, on gentle mud and flat terrain.......

 

Awesome any pics of what you had to trim? I'm getting my 265 75's mounted this weekend. I'm lifted a bit up front was wondering what your front end looked like after trimming...thanks man good looking truck love those rims!

 

As long as they don’t break they can’t be any different than the expensive max trax... prolly was just situational

 

Either of you guys have experience with that hi-lift extended base platform?
Is that really nice to have/make a big difference?
Thinking about getting one but have never talked to anyone and heard +/- experiences with em..

 

I put 265/75 on mine last week w/ stock suspension & no lift. Fits perfect w/ no rub what so ever.

 

Did you cover your battery when rinsing and spraying the mix?

 

yes the base makes a much needed improvement in the stability of the hi lift (my opinion)..have used it now several times and see a difference.

Used the Max Traxx this winter, works ok in snow, key is not to spin the tires while on the traxx....haven't used them in mud yet.

 

What he said

fits awesome. Only thing I had to do was find longer screws for the emblem as the one Cali gave me were too short. Other than that,

 

Got a link for those locking tabs for your recovery boards?

 

Ok cool thanks man just a bit worried about off roading and flexing thats all. Thanks for the feed back I'll see what she looks like when they are mounted.

 

Because we all love Amazon.

There seems to be a lot of opinions about Simple Green, and some excellent info at various sites about its use and possible issues....this one is their web site, but does contain a lot of info.....

I dont use it but that's just me .... I do like this, NOT a harsh cleaner by any means, as in not for a HD greasy clean, but if used routinely it works well.....

Good lawd almighty! Damn name-brand stuff is spensive.

 

Idk bout offroad yet but bnbonly one way to find out. I flexed her a lil after @ folks house w/ no rub...

 

The only thing i dont like about apple car play is the data usage on everything. That kills it for me. Supernicelooking interface, but that data man

 

very pricey indeed but makes a really nice way to secure the Maxx Traxx them on a rack and lock em...

 

I ran into the same thing for my Rotopax. The damn locking mount cost just as much as the Rotopax container.

 

Got my Relentless Fabrication rack together.
