They should fit just fine because nothing about the truck has been changed that I am aware of. The main thing that would be needed would be to add OEM floor anchors (which I’m searching for as we speak). I’m doing this to my 17 as soon as I can get the anchors. I’m tired of that passenger mat moving nonstop and people acting like they are afraid to move it back in place.

The passengers side comes with anchors and they are a snug fit. They also have that texture like little needles that stick in the carpert.

This happened Sunday afternoon. I was surprised how easy it was to do a full lift kit on this truck. I spent 2 hours trying to figure out how to get upper control arms out, and decided i'd save that project for another day... Needed to take a trip for work Monday late morning (after getting an alignment).

You have to bend the shit out of the thin fender metal in the way of the UCA bolt by bending it toward you with channel locks. Be careful not to pinch the ABS line clipped to the inside.
Or you can always grind a flat side off of the bolt/washer like I did for the re-install.

My first mod was somewhat of a shock to me?!? I came home and wanted to program my remotes into the truck? Shocked nothing!
Called the dealer the next day, and was told there was no homelink mirror available for my truck. After some research I called back
and gave them a part #87810-04110 of the mirror I wanted. He said it would not work! And could not return it if he was right. Took
the risk and wouldn't you know works like a charm.

Plug and play?

Edit: holy shiiit, $750?

don't you love it when the dealer "knows" their product? but that was something that surprised me too $40k truck that doesn't have homelink? the other is the touch entry on the autos that is only on the drivers side... my parents have a Venza that has the same thing, on both driver and passenger doors... WTF?

I agree with everything you just said!

Sold my Bilstein 5100s to a fellow Tacomaworld'er today. And I will give him credit for this simple mod I copied from him. I've been wanting one of those Bedrugs but didn't wanna spend the $$$. When we met today to make the deal on the shocks, I noticed his 'homemade' bedrug. It is simply a 4 x 6 stall mat that you can buy at a farm store. Ironically we met in the parking lot of my local Buchheits, so after he left I went inside and purchased one. $37 total cost. Used a circular saw to trim out the fender wells. Used the pieces I trimmed out for the wheel wells to fill in the spaces on each side in the rear. Works perfect! Thanks @Ekuhl . And nice to meet ya. The guy is a fireman also, so props for that, as well...!

Installed TRD Skid plate on my 2017 sr5 "xp". Got lucky and stripped rear two bolts even using a torque wrench and under torquing bolts. Now I have to figure out how to fix two small stripped bolts.

mrproduxn · Mar 2, 2018

Easy-out the broken bolts. Retap the holes in the body nuts. Must have been cross threaded. I bolted up my front 4 first and then finger snugged the smaller rears and then torqued all. If you get out the bolts you can always just use longer 3/8" bolts, washers and nuts if you don't have a tap.

The 2018 is different than the 2017 as there's now a latch for the passenger front mat.
Click to expand...

Understood but I plan to get that OEM latch (or whatever it is) and put it on my 17 and use it.

DubfromGA · Mar 2, 2018

So......today......in this crazy weather.....this happened.

My son gave me a hand and got the Tyger "slyders" bolted on. I'm now a parking lot warrior with my new armour, lol.

Really liking these things.

Thirsty work as I was holding them steady as he bolted them on.

Our next project will be the exhaust. I want a bit more growl from my rice-fed-squirrel-powered-6-pack.
