Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
not my truck, my wife's inherited tacoma. brought it home last weekend, started working on it. polished out a bunch of minor scratches, replaced the rear bumper plastic. bonus, turns out it is a TRD sport. someone sometime pulled the decals off the box but it has the embossed TRD seats and embossed TRD exhaust.
picked up these today for $1400. brand new Fuel rims with new Nitto Terra Grappler A/T G2's. was on the guy's tacoma for exactly 3 days, maybe 20 miles on them. even though their the same size as the stockers, there about an 1 1/2" taller and a touch wider. they clear no probs, but it looks a little funny in my eye, so i ordered a 3" lift for it, hoping it gets here by friday. wifey does not want any higher than 3, she hates climbing into my crewcab, but it does sit kinda low stockwise. also ordered some vent visors's as the drivers rear one is missing. only other plans are a canopy and call it done. wife is all giddy over her new rims and can't wait for me to toss them on |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Changed out the broken tail housing on my Chevelle in the storage building with no lights. I do have electric power and the entire 48 ft length has clear plastic on the ridge. It lets in a lot of light on a sunny day, but not under a car... LOL. I have an LED trouble light I used for that. I installed a rear axle last summer with 4.56 gears to go racing and apparently my original driveshaft didn't like the rpm and went jump rope which caused a severe vibration that snapped the housing off.
