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

I think the biggest reason people don't think their 37s is because you haven't trimmed fenders and have a wheel gap like you would with a 3 inch lift and 33s. Also you don't see alot of 37s on tacomas. 285s are only and inch skinnier than 12.50s and being 4 inches taller proportionately it doesn't look as big/wide. My 37s seem skinny to me compared to my 35s because thier taller. If you had a 10inch wide wheel and more poke they would probably look massive.

 

How much did each tire set you back

 

Installed my tent on my bed rack.

 

I was pricing 37s those bfs you have are like 340 a piece

 

I found 4 milestar pangoia for 980

 

I was going to do general grapplers before I did the BF mud terrain but I just saw too many negative reviews on them

 

Check a food plot and then exercising my 2A!
did do much to the truck except got it dirty!

 

Added Bilsteins on the 3rd notch and a 2” AAL. Made a huge difference on top of the 4” lift I already had on it.

 

Finally got a set of new headlights. Went with TYC exact replacements as I do not like the look of aftermarket ones; most have that "Bro Truck" look (if that offends you, I'm not sorry...). You ask, why didn't I just sand down and refinish the old ones? The passenger was cracked somewhere and fogging up, plus the new ones shipped to my door were less than $115.

Passenger new, drivers old:



Complete!

 

A little is an understatement. I got a couple hours in but still short.

I have cut the front fenders, cut and hammered the pinch weld, smashed the inner fenderwell with a small sledge hammer, and filled the resulting gaps with silicone. The mid cab mount just barely has enough meat left on it to hold the body bushing in place. If I go offroad - which I don't regularly do - it definitely rubs still. On pavement it never rubs.

You're correct my rims are 8" wide.

I think because everything is black on my truck it all kind of blends in together when looking at pictures of it.

I live in So Cal which is close to deserts and Baja. I bought my 37/12.50R17 BFG KO tires for $300 for all 4 tires. They're former race tires with small chunks missing out of the sidewall. They also have some cracking but not too bad yet. I bought them when it was raining and couldn't see the cracks. Racedezert.com has quite a few 37's and 39's because a few race classes use that tire.

 

Installed ME-SO Customs Gasshole for the short bed.... The bolt was an absolute PAIN! I had to drill it out and replace the screw but all in all i LOVE this mod.

 

I like the original head lights, I’d like to replace mine as they are starting to haze too. Where did you get yours from for that price?

 

Went glamping for the night.

 

Sick shot!! ...Love the cloud cover below you probably was amazing

 

Rock Auto. Looks like they're a little bit pricey for your model year; about $100 a pop for the same brand. If yours aren't leaking or cracked you could get away with a wetsand and a couple coats of 2K clearcoat.

 

“Massage”

 

Oooookkk no one told me building a bumper is so much fun.

 

That’s so freaking awesome looking!!!

 

That looks great Randy !

 

Thanks Chris! I’m beyond happy with how this is coming along so far.
