    Cool. I eventually took the carry handle off mine so its easier to store in the truck. LED doesn't get as hot as the halogens so I don't think its necessary.

    Gobi roof rack. Icon coilovers, Icon tubular UCAs, FOX 2.0 rear shocks, Icon 3-leaf progressive AAL.
    Amazon site says it ships in 1 or 2 months. Has it taken that long for anyone to get their T-slots.

    ThomasMore66, what was the charge for the 10?

    When I bought mine and originally posted they were in stock and shipped right away. I suspect Tacoma World probably drained them. Dont think anybody stocks many of the things because the real use is for clamping work down on a t-slotted fab table.

    $45 (40 for the slots, 5 for shipping) shipped from HI to TX. Way cheap to me. I got them in about a week total...might have been less because they went to my mail room for at least a day. He'll also tap them whatever size you want. I went 3/8"-16 on all of them.

    Lol! No steel, no heat, no polishing or finish work, no surfsce prep. Just crank the aluminum around in a vice, hack to size, eyeball the holes, and squirt with Krylon. They look fine but my old shop teachers would award an F grade for sure.
