    Not sure I’ll keep it on.
    It stands out too much I think?
    Just wasn’t sure if all new frames got them or the guy that did the frame was a good shit and gave me some extras.

    The one on top is mine!
    I had used lps3 then Toyota did the crc. The lps3 worked well with the crc but I still had a bad frame frame so I got no fn clue what to do as of now!

    click the word "this" in my post its hyperlinked to https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/hidden-cb-install-pics.223025/
    Scroll down in post 1 until you see the big blue heading "Step 4"
    Talks about drilling and mounting the CB in the little bump spot in the center console so its out of site when the center console is closed.

    Jesus that doesnt even look that bad! Why did you decide to have it replaced, is the rust worse than it looks in places? Or just decided to have it done anyway?

    After

    Maybe the new suspension needs to Settle?


    This was my fail. It appears to be a weld that burned thru or something?

    I put a lot of hours into try trying to save my frame and failed I guess.
    I don’t know what to do?
