    Seeking TRD Pro fox shocks insight... I’ve read the 1986 pages of TRD shock posts and comparisons sway this way and that. If you have/or had them im I treated in understanding. I have a Pro Sport and swapped Hitachi suspension for Eibach Pro Sport which gave me @2” front lift. I understand the TRD pro give 1” front lift (?). How would you add another inch front? I find the Eibach rather stiff on pavement. It rides solid and doesn’t dive/sway. But bumps are rough. Do you think the Pro Fox would be softer? I have a friend w some lightly used at $1500....? Thanks in advance

    Sacrilege. Clearly you did it wrong.

    This. :thumbsup: Even admiring the job after it is done is at least one beer.

    Bunch of stuff bolted on, some cool, some not
    Here's a few more pics closer and from the side. I'm not super crazy about the fit at the bottom, it could be more snug but overall I'm super happy with the look.

    Looks really good! And @RivetNutBob has me convinced that I can do it !

    Two questions for you, if you don't mind. Did you order from Amazon? The reason I ask is that the link says it will fit a Tacoma up to 2019 and I have a 2020. I assume it will work but wanted to see if anyone knew that for sure.

    Also, what hooks did you buy?

    I appreciate the help !

    It’s been covered here before. You’re good, they’ll fit. No change from 19’ to 20’

    I did order from Amazon

    Yes, it's the Lamin-x film option that you can choose when buying the lights. The Lamin-x comes cut in the oval shape. They do not give you excess, that's for sure, so there was no need to trim anything. They were actually a bit too small to entirely cover the lens, but the truck's bezel covers the edges, so you can't see any uncovered light.

    Finally got around to getting this thing mounted. Basically using unused space in the bed, but leaves the majority of the bed available. Easy and its solid, but can be easily removed if needed.

    Decided to try a different manufacturer for custom floor mats. These are not rubber like others but rubber coated which makes them lighter.
