MARYLAND TACOMAS

Why do you need that part?

 

As when I did the original instal i mounted the included bracket to that piece thinking it was a good idea..... now i really miss that extra 12V outlet and cupholder, and if im gonna replace that part id rather gain a few switch locations while im at it

 

Gotcha... Yea I almost did that haha... Instead I just cut out the back panel behind the shifter like I did on the old one.

 

I figure I have 3 years before it gets some front end damage since this one is mirroring the damage of the Silver one lol.

 

How much was shipping?

 

Holy crap too much!!

350$ I believe.. I thought it was going to be around 150$ but she sprung that number on me and my left arm went numb..
So is a rear bumper, swing out tire gate, license plate flip and light cut outs.. total with shipping was around 1600$

 

That's the bumper I ordered..so it looks really good..lol

 

Yeah, In hindsight it was a dumb idea, especially since I now have to take the whole damn dash apart to replace that one panel. you would happen to know somone with that panel available would you? my next idea is to go visit the crazy rays by my work and see if they have a wrecked taco with that panel in good shape, after that its paying $$ to toyota for it.

 

265/75r16 are rubbing on my truck =(

 

God damn that's pricey to ship.

I'd do the standard bumper so that's $700 and possibly the rigid lights and cutouts. Could find someone to powder coat locally.

Just have to wait and see how much all this would cost to repair and what the differences would be. Those rigids would make backing up at night awesome haha

 

It's rubbing the very bottom of the fender

 

What offset are your wheels? Alignment? Lift?

 

Stock off road package, 4.5" offset alined.

 

Makes no sense to me. Something is off. Maybe caster? You have your alignment numbers?

 

I just have a lot of room with my tires in that size, but aftermarket suspension. Only thing you can do is play with alignment numbers or start trimming I guess.

 

If its rubbing the front fender, you need less caster in your alignment, if your rubbing the back of the fender, you need more caster.... im 99% sure its an alignment problem, if not your truck is weird and ill gladly take your tires lol

 

I'll have to schedule an a lineament check tomorrow

 

Passing through, hello Maryland!
