    Super easy once you get the parts just cut a hole in the floor mat and screw the anchor into the carpet.

    There's a product list at the bottom of this thread. Look down there or go back a few pages and look for the link. I would look below first.

    Alright today I mounted m 30 inch light bar from rough country. It was pricey but worth it. The only problem I have with it is that it is designed for you to cut out the black piece he light sits behind. I custom drilled a new hole cause the light wouldn't mount. So I got around that but where the bar originally sat is pussing my plastic out a little. I hope it doesn't crack it.

    Well I'm sure you have had them check just about everything. If they can't fix it, I would tell them that you will keep driving yours until they get you a new one that aligns or give you your money back? Just my thoughts..

    Well this is absolutely last thing I'm doing to the truck, it's the fault of this forum. I'm talking about the LED light bar, just gotta wire tomorrow, button would go where the ect power is normally so Ill have a full buttoned dash:)

    It's an RI midnight series bar if anyone is wondering. And for those who had this installed, what do you do with the button part of the plastic shield, the one you cut in two pieces? The top part goes back, but is the bottom not suppose to attach because of the bracket, I couldn't get it to fit and the instructions are really vague.

    Read my post from earlier today. An alignment does not straighten the steering wheel. Simple tie rod end adjustments straighten the steering wheel. Take it to any reputable alignment shop and ask them how much to center your steering wheel. No alignment adjustments required. Not affiliated with caster or camber. I learned that trick in trade school in the 1970's. This is not a new problem.

    Greetings fellow TW Members! First posting here and I thought I'd share my recent and first Taco purchase.

    I'm now a proud owner of a used Toyota Certified 2106 TRD Sport 4x4, with JBL premium tech package, tow package, tonneau cover, bed mat, mud guards, step bars, also has Weathertech mats. I'm really loving this truck. It looks and runs great, the inferno color is awesome, and I'm getting 18.5 MPG in town which I think is great for a truck. The dealer could have told me this was a new truck from the factory and I would have believed him except for the fact of 9500 miles on the odometer. The truck is spotless, inside and out.

    I've started my mod's, dipped the badges, added tailgate decals, blackened the grill, 32" LED hidden light bar. This truck reminds me of the fun of modding my very first truck, a 1971 Datsun that I drove during high school. I think next on the list is to tint the front door windows to match the back doors. I'm happy with the tires and wheels for now. I had BFG T/A KOs on a Silverado and really liked them, so I'm thinking I'll go to those eventually.

    Sorry for the crappy garage pictures, these were taken the day I bought it. I'll get some pictures of my mods if it ever stops raining here and I can get it washed up. Nothing special compared to the other Tacos I've seen posted here, there are many like it, but this one is mine! ;-)

    Been looking to add some storage space to the bed... Something small that wouldn't get in the way and also fit under my BakFlip F1 cover. Really liked the idea of the ammo can storage boxes alot of the 2nd gen guys do, and how it incorporates into the bed rail system. So I kept an eye on eBay for about a week and finally saw this:

    s-l1600.jpg

    s-l1600 (1).jpg

    Figured I could do something with that, and it's about the size I was looking for. So paid $35 and turned it into this today:

    20170329_202055.jpg

    Used a pair of Relentless Fab dual quick fist mounts, which I had to mod the shit out of because unbenounced to me the side bed rails were dropped when the dealership put the BakFlip cover on, when I bought my truck; so none of the holes matched up... Anyway some drilling here and there, and a couple 1/2" x 3" stainless bolts, washers and spacers, and it mounted up nice and tight.

    Good size for a few tools or whatever I may need to throw in it. Currently it's holding my 30 ft. Bubba Rope and shackle, which fits perfect.
