    Looking for a factory receiver hitch assembly for the 2016 up Tacoma access cab

    Have looked at the Draw Tire brand as well as the Curt brand and they dont look as appealing :puke:
    I also can't seem to find any trucks that have an aftermarket receiver installed to see if I can live with the way it actually looks installed

    Had my parts guy look up a new factory one and it's near
    $700.00

    Is there any chance someone on here has removed thiers for some reason like a aftermarket bumper or possibly for a increase in approach angle ?

    Multiple calls to salvage yards all over my area (Oklahoma)and the Dallas area and not a single Tacoma 2016 and up that is availablea to part out

    Thanks in advance for any links

    OP - Have you tried U-Hall? I've purchased one from them before. Decent price and good quality hitch.

    Yes sir thank you I did look at various aftermarket brands and styles and they don't look as fit/finish as the Toyota .....
    I went today back to the dealer and looked up under a tow package truck and the whole assembly that mounts the factory bumper is what has to be replaced to get the desired look I am trying to get .....
    So either I find a 2016 up that's being parted out or get ready to spend some Ben Franklins

    As as a side note some aftermarket bumpers I was looking into require the factory tow package to mount up

    I knew the truck didn't have tow package going into this but it was blue and access cab 4cyl 4x4 and it fit the needs my wife will use it for except the lack of the real hitch mount ....... For even the price of a 4cyl truck at least I could have the 4 pin trailer light hook up

    Next is a quality plug and play trailer lights hook up the flat 4 pin ......

    I don't want to go splicing up a brand new truck
