What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Yea I have one , I installed it last year. I needed it to tow my boat. Is there a brand that works better than others or is it hit and miss. Thanks again

Please send pictures of your new tires. I would like to see how it looks like in your Tacoma. Thanks

 

Ayy you're catching up

 

Next on my long list of changes is installing magnet on the fuel door. Latch for the lock is broken and cannot find a cheap replacement for it. 2 silver round magnet attached to the screws beside the 2 rubber stopper. Thanks

 

Drove to Dallas and Bentonville AR for some mountain biking. just under 1200miles.
Lake at Isle du Bois, SP
3 Sticks Monument, OK
and the last pic is self explanatory. Great trip.

 

You do the slaughter pen?

When I went there I wasted a ton of time at Lake Atalanta . Shouldve stuck to the slaughter pen only, but what I did rode there was fantastic. It rained the day I was in Hot Springs, but I hear the North Woods Trail system there is really good too.

 

Hey same

 

Yup, rode 13 miles at Slaughter Pen on Friday afternoon and 12 miles at Coler on Saturday morning. Coler was my favorite. I rode solo so I look forward to taking my Houston riding buddies up there.

 

That area is 1000 miles away from me as the crow flies. So my trip this past summer will likely be my last time getting out there for a long time. I will say I enjoyed the towns of Rogers/Fayettville/Bentonville a lot, so much that I wouldnt hesitate to move there. Only thing I didnt like was the restaurant I ate at in downtown Bentonville, the Flying Fish. That left my gut all messed up. Inland seafood I guess.

 

Did a thing today..

 

Opening weekend is over... No tags filled. Saw things, learned things, spent time with one of my boys. Weekend was not a bust by any means.

The best part about not filling a tag is that your season is still open.

 

I think I have a spare one in my garage if you want it.

 

I’m good, thanks

 

I just ordered those, hoping I can paint the chrome a gunmetal color somehow.

 

Noticed one of my rear Icon 2.0 shocks was leaking oil and was blown. The rear of the truck was handling poorly. Since I am pretty much all highway driving to work and not lifted in the rear, decided to go with the stock replacement Bilstein 4600 rear shocks. I am very pleased with them so far. I will probably end up selling the Icons (they are rebuildable, but I see no use for them). Pics: (you can see where the shock oil leaked down my axle, need to clean that up).

 

How many miles did you get out of your Icon 2.0s before the leak happened?

Just curious, been reading a lot about the 2.0 rears leaking lately. I've had mine on for ~25k miles and no issues...probably due for a rebuild in the next 10k or so anyway.

 

I have 35k on mine. No leaks yet

 

This is the alternator bracket adjustment I have for the supercharger.

 

25k here and no problems yet
