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

I've had zero rubbing issues with my 33 for the last 3 years. I just recently put on spidertraxx wheel spacers and only had rubbing at full lock backing up. The chop I did is way more than enough to clear the issue.

Most people have different wheel and tire combos and lifts. What works for me may not work for you. Keep in mind that I'm about 6inches lifted with my Spindles and Coilovers, plus the spindles widen 1.5in and the Spidertraxx widen 2.5in overall. So in total I'm 4in wider than stock. Plus my wheels are 17x9s and tires are 285/70/17.

Hope this clears some of your thought process.

 

ok this pic freaked me out a little bit. Do you see the face? Directly above and slightly to the right of the sparks? Your truck is haunted, dude.... get out while you can.

 

hahaha^^


Painted pinch weld
Removed secondary air filter
New spark plugs
Cleaned some stuff
Applied 7 HP sticker

Shiney

 

Good catch Appljax! Lol!

 

Haha I didnt see that one. But I did see the one just below the sparks, slightly to the right. It looks like a little alien face! lol..
Pretty weird/freaky....

 

I Changed my oil today. descided to do it myself this time and switch to Castrol Edge synthetic. Also got a Toyota filter. I think I can feel a difference. I ran synthetic before, but QuakerState. It seems to run better and alittle more pep in her....

Oh and greased my shafts.
One of the u-joints on the 4x4 shaft, I dont think has ever been greased.... just bc its hard to get to(lazy ass quick lube)... I pumped alot of grease in it, and very little old grease came out.

 

Made some brackets for my Hi Lift today, super strong, but could have done a better job...need a new brick of bullets I guess.

 

Not sure if I'm entirely sold in the red emblem yet, either. I tried black but it just disappeared in the grille. I might go back to chrome.

 

I am insane for LEDs. Even a Co-worker said that there is going to be an intervention on me about my addiction. I have 8 more on the workbench waiting to be installed once I have some more raw aluminum to mock them up with. Plus when the budget provides I will be installing some RI "Dually's" "D2's" and "SR" lights. I found a sick place to mount one as a reverse / tailgate'r warning light. People "high-beam" me for my red LED turn's in the rear. I guess they don't like the 9 watt LEDs I have back there. (ever had someone blast you in the eyes with a LED flashlight when your eyes are adjusted to night?)

So made this lame video.

i like the amber LED turn signals. I would totally grab some of those.

i like my 06 stye tail lights, but I want leds. i think the factory tacoma led's are ugly though. i just like the way LED's flash.

 

Mounted a 10lb source CO2 tank in the bed.



Had a visitor watching me while i worked. or maybe he was just checking himself out. IDK
