So I have some friends in the military that run toyota hiluxes when they're on base (in the states). Last night one of them told me toyota is going to discontinue the tacoma and replace it with the hilux (which is really just a diesel tacoma) completely in 2017. Anyone heard anything about...

I snapped it hill hoping, got some damn good air though. Time for new bilsteins

So i just got my new light bar, and being a 52 inch i had to figure out a set of brackets to use, instead of just bolting it to the roof. I used steel angle brackets and bent them to fit the crease in the roof. Then i drilled through the roof crease and bolted everything down. I cut and grinded...

So my trucks reaching 240k miles (still running strong) but eventually stuffs gonna go. Toyotas giving me a new frame, and with my sentimental ties to the truck, i plan on keeping it as long as possible. I want to put a hilux diesel engine in it when the motor goes out. I like the idea of more...

Anyone use a rear air bag suspension or helper spring? Do they work well? Share your thoughts

So my 05 tacoma sport came with the tow package. There was both a 6 way and a 4 way connector when i got it. The 6 way connector is fine, but the four way has only one wire to it. Can anyone tell me which wires go to which color wire on the 4 way. The top pic is the right tail light, and the the...

I have an 05 tacoma sport, it has four cats on it. Ive been getting the "bad catalytic converter" codes for both driver and passenger sides for some time now.

Hey guys i could use some help here. I was driving my 05 4.0L sport this morning and noticed an odd noise coming from under the hood. Its not very loud, the best description i can give is it sort of sounds like an electric motor running. Im thinking it was something to do with the belt or maybe...

I'm sure ill get some responses calling me an idiot, but is it possible to use steel tubing as rear lift blocks, say two inches. I have a buddy who says its possible, and would actually hold up, but im not sure he knows what he's talking about. If not horizontal, what about cutting and laying...

I have a 05 access cab sport model, with no pre existing roof rack. I want to install a roof basket but dont wanna use the universal clamp on bars. Anyone on here mounted a basket on their roof? If so how and pictures always help. All suggestions appreciated

I fabricated this a while ago, and recently someone asked me to make one for them. Its easily removable and very very sturdy. It fits any 2nd gen Tacoma (05-12). Just wondering how much I should ask for. How much would you pay? Thanks.

I have an 05 tacoma sport. Stock rims on it at the moment. Im planning on a rough country 6 in suspension lift. With it new rims and tires. I want the style shown in the picture, but bigger than stock size. I have no clue what size or brand i should get though. Looking for rims under $200 any...

I know this should be in aftermarket, but more people will see it here. I have an 05 Tacoma 6cyl that i want to put a snorkel on. The issue is there is no snorkel for tacomas. I might just make one custom. I know the toyota huilux snorkel can almost fit, but not completely. Anyone have a snorkel...

Ok, so i live in Maryland. All vehicles must pass an emissions test to be on the road. They use an OB2 tester (at least ive never been smog tested) and my 05 6cl taco fails with the famous p240 (bad catalytic converter). I have no $ to replace them being a college student. I tried the spark plug...
