    i did a bunch of mods to my 2016 tacoma access truck this weekend, , i bought a horse stall mat from tractor supply and just trimed it up to go around the wheel wells, its real heavy (100lbs) and thick also (3/4) , cost only $42, had my console lid reupholstered and added more stuffing ,$65 did the aluminum spacer seat mod, works great , put the tekonsha p3 in the cubby hole with the special mounting plate, worked out great, bought a 24x36 truck mudflap, cut it up in 4 pieces and drilled holes and put it on. only cost me $28 for the mud flap, 3/16 thick, flexible .

    forgot to mention , the little switch next to the fog light switch is a garage door opener switch, i modified my controller , broke the switch off, soldered two wires to that switch, put it all back together and put velcro on the back and put it up high on my side kick panel so i can change the battery when needed

    Dont Remember. It was over 2 years ago and I just know it was a pain to get to the bolts and one I couldn’t get a torque wrench on.

    So I guess I'll forget that one of the bolts are impossible to torque after whomever I hire to put it on for me. Maybe that is why the dealership quoted me $85 for 1.5 hours labor.

    Yeah, hopefully man. They are a good looking taillight. My issues we're with reverse connection for blinker and brake, moisture issues, and led diodes out. Each set was something different lol

    Has anyone with a smittybilt X20 12k steel cable replaced it with a synthetic line? I understand there are issues with doing that depending on how the brake system is. On the x20 the brake is not on the drum...

    Installed the Toytec 1” body lift yesterday (all day) on my 2019. Already had a 2” suspension lift.

    The rear bumper is the only issue, as you can see in the pic it’s hanging down below the body line. Possible fix should not be too hard, not in a hurry though.

    It’s still a PITA to do ! : )

    Well guess what they are going back. I just noticed the passenger side is cracked inside the housing. Not sure if you can see it but it is where the lense meets the inside housing.

    Follow instructions closely when erecting that tent. The joints break really easy, especially when it’s very cold.
