    I just picked up a 2012 tacoma trd off road today. I was inspecting it when I got it home any couldn't find a ball mount to go in the hitch. I assumed with the tow package, this would be included? Or is it not? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    They really can't include one since there's really no 'one size fits all'. Different trailers will require a different drop (or rise) to make the trailer sit level. You have to measure and pick the correct one for your situation.
