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

Not exactly to the truck, but for the truck. Hitches where getting a bit of surface rust and paint flaking off. Cleaned them up with wire wheel on grinder and re painting.



P.S before someone says something.... I only used a wire wheel to clean just the rust and some of the paint off. Strength of hitch should not be effected much if at all.

 

First time getting a full detail in 4 years and she looks amazing

 

Swapped out MAXSA boards for maxtrax. They sold me on the mounting options and I got sick of the orange.

 

That red POPS. Looks fantastic.

 

Gotcha, ok thanks.

 

Looks good! I need to wash clay bar and wax my truck.

 

Fixed the compass/temp display, and tried to track down what the aftermarket switch the previous owner installed operates. No luck on the switch. Did notice a couple wire splices and a couple connectors not connected (assume it’s just un-used plugs for my trim level). Wondering where the splices to the temp display goes to. Would love to find previous owner and ask some questions lol

 

Installed the doohickey to keep crooks from boosting my tailgate

 

Felt like changing the color after seeing the new Voodoo Blue Pro’s.. Figured this is one of its kind. First ever Voodoo blue 2nd gen!

Color is Avery Gloss Blue

 

Kinda hard to jack by the axle with no leaf springs installed.

 

What doohickey is this and where you get it?

Unlike the hose clamp this makes my OCD happy. Lol

 

Probably as much as my rear diff skid. I so need to do this.

 

Looks great, did you do it yourself?

 

Get a Tesla they said. It’ll be fun they said. But can’t haul to save its life. Dump yard today with the ol taco

 

Definitely did... NOT do it myself

 

that's a different mounting position then I've seen. How difficult was it to run cable in through the door loom?

I made an outlet extension cord and messed up by putting it together before running thru the loom. I have it coming out the panel at the front of the door and under the dash. The antenna runs behind the fender and into the door. Drilled a hole just big enough to fit the antenna and outlet plug thru. Someday I will tear it apart and run the wires correctly.

 

Would like to install my rear light switch into the panel below the A/C controls today to finish the install of my aux reverse lights but cant find the thread that covers the dash disassembly. Can anyone point me in the right direction?


Disregard! Found it!
