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

4 runner ones work but Its easier to just cut

 

I am gonna weigh one of mine, and if I can cut 10 lbs or more per wheel with different tires and wheels same height I might go that route. Not sure what I am gonna do at this point. Thanks for the input at least I know I am not alone. I hate to see what it is gonna do pulling my boat to Louisiana. Probably hit TW members for gas assistance.

Aerodynamics, top (terminal leader) first would act like an open, upside down umbrella.

 

Do they fit like a glove? Really tight and snug? Water resistance ? Thank you

 

I run Nitto RG 285/75R16, Load range E. They're probably the heaviest 285/75 on the market. I get slightly better MPG's than you listed but barely. These motors are weak on torque so the heavy rolling mass kicks it's ass when it comes to MPG's.

 

Do these let light escape from around the knob like the others people starting swapping to?

 

Checked my transmission fluid for the first time. Got a few drops out once up to temperature. But since I've always got some Valvoline MaxLife laying around....figured I'd top it off. I pumped about 2/3 of a quart into it. Repeated the check procedure and let it bleed down to a thin trickle. So I'm guessing 1/2 quart net.

This is a good precursor to when I start doing a series of drain and fills starting at 60k miles. I'm at 53k now.

A little FYI. I never got the 2nd "AT TEMP" 2 second light after putting it back in park. I was stumped and repeated it a few times. Then I came across a post from a guy with a '12 who experienced the same thing. So there's a chance that us '12-'15 guys don't get that 2nd illumination confirmation light. However the light did come on steady in just under 20 minutes at 60° outside temp.

 

I wedged a large, loose rock between my frame rail and sliders, and separated the floor from the rocker panel. Didn't even realize and did water crossings and ruined my carpet in the truck. So I threw it away and did the bed liner in it's place.

 

Cleaned the engine bay with Superclean foam ( https://amzn.to/2U6jSCW ). Not too bad for 5 minutes of my time!

 

Installed some quick fist mounts on my Voodoo bars.

 

Nice. SS hardware?

 

Yes.

 

I was wondering how you were going to get it cleaned back up. Lol!

 

Missed a spot.

 

Lol yeah it was nasty.

More like 127 spots, but still better than before. I'll get in there with a toothbrush eventually.

 

I’m sure he’ll get “one of his people “ to finish that , you know he’s a big celebrity and everything!

 

My people are on it.
