Walkaround & Breakdown Of My Second Gen Tacoma! Welcome Back??

[@davidt8438]

I love the truck but I’m blown away by the high quality video! Super sharp and colorful images make everything else look like they filmed through a dirty piece of glass.

[@TRDAidan]

thank you! i actually filled this on my phone lol

[@desertdime]

Fuck it. The past is the past. Don’t beat yourself up over the stuff you didn’t record. Get excited about the stuff you’re going to record! Glad you’re back at it. If you have any questions lmk 🤙🏼

I have the 2011 2nd Gen Tacoma. I going through the same mod-phase. I got the sound-proofing of the cabin done. I added the bed rack for camping from Victory4x4. Next I'm upgrading the factor radio and the interior lighting. There's lots of options for both rear and front bumpers. The stock bumpers have to go! You need the next level look on the 2nd Gens. Careful turning those fog-lights in the city at night. I love your truck, Great job partner.

Man keep up the good work. I just purchased a 2013 2wd tacoma prerunner trd sport, and I'm now even more interested in modding my truck.

[@TRDAidan]

thank you man it means a lot 🤝🏼 glad to have gotten you excited!

[@titoskeleton9571]

Love the set up bro, I got a 2wd 2011 tacoma and have the same lights, had morimoto fog lamps until I got a baja set up for free due to an issue with the bumper. I went crazy putting a heavy duty metal bumper, icon suspension, ultra hunter rims with falken wildpeak tires, joying headunit and a few minor upgrades. Quite honestly it might not be fully practical in heavy off road but it looks great and works perfect for light off road and trails .

Hey Aiden. I saw your rig on your buddy’s channel; nice content. But for a half-hour yesterday I tried to get the ambers to show on my lights(I have the exact same headlights) and it did not work. You say that to make the ambers work to put the e brake on right? I did that and it didn’t work. Any suggestions? Btw I subscribed, thank you for your help and tips.

[@TRDAidan]

Hey Michael. Getting the amber DRLs on is not a permanent setting. The headlights for the 05-11 tacomas do not support that option, only the 12-15 headlights do. To have them amber the truck must be off, with the parking on, and then when you turn the lights on with the hand knob on the left of the steering wheel they will be amber until activation of the truck.

Why did you take the front inner fender trim off, ? there is actually a body line on the front bumper, i was thinking of doing the same thing, the only problem I have was, I have a Bushwalker knock off fender flares, and it goes all the way down to the front bumper..

[@TRDAidan]

since the fenders are trimmed, you lose almost all mounting points for the fender liners. plus even if they were left to hang in there by 1 or 2 clips, they wouldn’t sit flush nor would they be stable

Sweet truck! I just picked up some ssw apex wheels. I’m on the fence between mudders and the ko2’s. may i ask, what are the big cons between the two? What would you say your mpg difference is from the ko2s to the yk-mt? 2-3 mpg’s? Hope you can help.

[@TRDAidan]

it really just depends on your use for the truck. in my opinion i really didn’t care for my ko2s at all. they didn’t perform well off road and were louder then the geolandars on the highway. for a/t tires i’d look into falken, m/t i’d say falken or yokohama. i don’t really keep track of the gas mileage anymore tbh but even if i did it’d be hard to compare since these are bigger than my ko2s.

Dude you should tint your head lights they have clear I seen a few guys do that it protects your headlights from getting damaged on the rocks whatever hits the lights when you’re driving all those people I see you online they sell those kids to make your headlights clear again and they clean them one time and the next day they’re all fogged up again because there’s condensation and cracks in the headlights the first guy I’ve seen him do that he worked at a body shop but now I see a lot of people do it to protect their lights and your Your lights are really nice I would even do the fog lights with the clear to keep everything really nice my wife has a 2020 RAV4 I’m about to grab I’m trying to find a 2020 Tacoma because I would like to get to six cylinder never had a Toyota pick up I have a forerunner in the past and my wife’s RAV4 I’m gonna add some aftermarket mods she was always a Nissan person you gotta get away from them I’m not knocking Nissan they have a lot of nice vehicles but the maximum but anything besides a maximal step up to the infinity FX 35 Infiniti I 35 years back i’m really mad that I got rid of the FX 35 because everybody’s making those things look really really nice now and they’re like the Toyotas people are keeping them forever I’m not gonna lie like that SUV drives like a sports car because I had a 350 Z it really handles really well and it’s fast 👍👍👍 I am back in to Toyota Have you ever seen that KZbin channel to come with beast those guys they make a lot of aftermarket things for Toyota trucks they even fabricate thank it was some fog lights they did for somebody and they needed some fabrication work I think for the headlights I’m not mistaken it’s amazing what they do with the fabrication machine work in 3-D printing I’ve seen a guy online and 3-D printed a piece for the camera in the rear was really nice
