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

Fairly well. Works good for me

 

did mine last week. same place. output not good. not sure if cheap lights or moving it forward will help. ordered the brackets, guess I will find out.

 

Do the two different tire sizes equal out in diameter?

 

My front bumper came from coastal offroad, and I order a smittybilt overland tent on 4wp March madness 24hr sale.

 

Weld together kit I take it? Any pics of what it will look like when assembled

 

Here is there link to the website, yes they are weld together kits.

I want to do this as well but I can't bring myself to like the LED grid. Still running OE tails for now.

 

I like how they did the ecoery points and where they put the light cut outs. Looks like you have a really fun project ahead of you assuming you are assembling yourself. Everybody seems to want to either spray paint their bumpers or use the cheap DIY bedliner kits. I recoated mine with Hippoliner and sprayed it with a Schutz gun pretty durable stuff we use at work alot. You can get it in black and tintable. The black doesn't hold up to the sun as well as the tintable so even for black e use the tintable. This is a pic of mine I mixed the tintable with some 040 white paint for a great match

 

Not sure. It may be a DV8 but it came with a bunch of lights too.


Not sure. The PO was an old guy who put them in. I think they are from a 4R or something.

 

I will be assembling myself Should be pretty fun. Did you primer it before the hippo liner? Or just Spray it on bare metal?

 

sprayed ths over an exstng bedlner. The Hppoliner has etching qualities but I would clean the surface really well and spray it with at least etching primer first.

 

Note: if you use the Hippoliner and a schutz gun spray at 40-50lbs of preasure. You can control the texture by how far from the surface you hold the gun. Don't even try to do it in a heavy coat. 2-3 medium coats works well. If you are in a cooler humid environment it can take about 5 days for it to cure and you can install it. I did mine last fall when it was cool and damp and it took a week. in a heated shop environment just 2 days

 

Yikes. I'm guessing the lug removal key is aluminum?

 

Looks chrome just not an impact socket. Goodmorning BTW

 

I know this is easier said than done, but since you've found a nest in your filter you may want to start checking all the wiring under your hood as rodents have been known to chew on the wire shrouds which contain soy products.

 

Good morning!

 

What sort of mischief are you getting in to today? I'm trying to get my Sunday morning chores done and if the weather cooperates get out and install the lift kit on the camper and the hub conversions.

 

I'm actually going to change the transfer case oil in my daughter's Nissan Rogue. Should be fun as it will be the first time I've gotten to use my 4 ramps, and I got to buy a 20" 3/8 extension for the job.

 

Long extensions are handy to have. You don't tend to use them alot but really nice to have when they are needed. I need some more extensions. I need more tools never enough. I may need some tools when we work on Skippers truck in a couple of weeks
