    I have a rough estimate. I took a couple brackets I was having shipped to some USA addresses and asked what the cost would be to Canada. The shortest bracket is the LM-1215 and it obviously fits into the smallest box. That bracket was quoted to me at $15 shipping first class and $35 shipping priority. The longest bracket is the LM-0511. I was quoted $35 shipping for that bracket shipped first class. I have one other Canadian customer who has just agreed on a purchase and I will make the same offer to you that I did for him. I will sell the bracket to you for $25 and charge you whatever the actual shipping costs are.

    I have not priced UPS so I do not know if they cost less. The post office will require me to fill out a customs form, which I have never done before and I am not sure if there are any duty charges or not.

    Just installed my bracket last night (too dark for pics but will make sure to post some later). Very sturdy and looks great. Thanks @ACEkraut

    Another very satisfied customer of ACEkraut! After several conversations, both aaron and I agreed that the LM-1215-SP would most likely work on my 2009. He even offered to build it, send it in the mail and have me verify fit before making payment. Rest assured if you have a pre 2013 2nd gen with optional factory skid plate this will work on yours. Thanks for a great, cost effective solution for one of toyotas few shortcomings wishing you success with this product image.jpg

    Thanks Jason. I enjoyed working with you to make sure that everything would fit well on your Tacoma.

    The industrial supply company finally has more of the 1/8" X 1.5" wide aluminum flat bar I use back in stock. Picking it up today for anyone looking for a plate bracket.

    Do you know off hand if the Model LM-1215-SP will work with the BPF skid plate? I'm pretty sure dimensionally they are the same but thought you may already have sold a bracket to someone with the BPF skid.

    I'd be in for $25 plus actual shipping :thumbsup:

    PS the form is a piece of cake. All it wants is your name + address, customer name + address, what is being shipped and what the value of the item is.

    I am working with another customer to verify that the LM-1215 will work with his aftermarket skid plate. He has one from Bulletproof Fabrication, which I think is the same as yours? (BPF = Bulletproof Fabrications?) I am in the final stages of verifying the fit. If you can send me a low angle picture of the front of your truck and give me the clearance between the very top edge of the skid plate to the bumper I think I can verify if it will work or not. I will send you a PM with some reference pictures and other information to make sure we are on the same page.

    Yep BPF = Bullet Proof Fabrications. No need to PM me though as I don't have one, but will be buying one and also wanted to buy one of your brackets too. I suppose though if your customer confirms the bracket works with the skid plate then count me in for one

    I believe it will fit fine but I don't like the idea of shipping something out that will not work so I just want to double check one last measurement to make sure.

    I am in the process of figuring this out. Rather than clog the thread up with our discussion I will send you a PM and as soon as I can verify the fitment I will post back to this thread.

    A test of the fitment of a bracket modified to fit a Bulletproof Fabrication Skid Plate has gone out to two TW members. One has a 2012-2015 Tacoma and the other has a 2005-2011 Tacoma. If they verify the brackets will fit then Tacoma owners with a BPF Skid Plate will have a bracket they can use. If not then whatever adjustments to the design that are needed for proper fitment will be made.
