    I was thinking along the same lines but with my luck I’d get “Sorry, sold out. Do you want to go on the waiting list for the next order?” (no hint about “sold out”until after payment) :rasta:

    KTJO 4x4 Drivers Side Grab Handle

    I Posted This on the "What have you done to your 3rd Gen" Thread and @tonered posted a comment of mine here!
    "So THIS is where you were all Hiding!?"
    Figured I'd just Copy/Paste this here too! :hattip:

    All Taco Parts Must be Inspected By Savanna first!

    Hardware! Ratchet & Box Wrench (not included) didn't need the wrench...


    Remove Side Pillar Panel

    Install Nut Clip on Lower Bracket(***THIS CLIP NEEDS TO BE KINDA CRIMPED ON BRACKET) It wont line up perfectly if you don't!
    And Be Easy when you push the lower bolt in (Clip Nut WILL BEND Easy)! Don't ask me how I Know...Cheap? Soft Metal

    Squeeze/Crimp Clip Nut, making sure it's centered on hole!
    [​IMG]
    Edit: (The upper bolt hole is angled up a bit too high as you can see on this Pic!
    Before you put the cover back on, screw in the upper bolt and pry the bracket down just a hair for proper alignment...) Pic Thanks to @tonered

    Slide Pillar Panel Back in...You can Put handle onto Pillar Panel first before bolting in!
    Oh,Yea! Don't Forget to Put Bolt Cover Safety straps on before bolting to Pillar cover! They still go on after, just a little harder. LOL
    Then install these 2 bolts as such...Don't push lower bolt very hard! Clip Nut will bend!



    Top and Bottom Covers are Different! I ENDED UP GETTING 2 TOP COVERS:annoyed:Looks like She is aware of this issue with mismatched covers and you need to e-mail her at: exchange@ktjo4x4.com

    Looks Great! Just like OEM.. Couldn't Be ANY Happier!!!...well, except I'm missing the lower cover:101010:

    Distribution is a complete mystery. Some of us have no info on shipment after preordering a year ago, while others ordered recently and have shipping info. But they exist so it shouldn’t be more than a few weeks wait, at worst, and seemingly more likely new orders ship first.

    New orders ship immediately. Anything before November, your information is written on a ping pong ball and put into a lottery ball machine and several are selected daily to be shipped.

    Feeling guilty. Ordered 12/17/20, estimated delivery by 12/31/20 across the US.

    Can’t say I’m anything but a happy customer at this point, but hoping KTJO makes it right for those of you who invested early and financed this for people like me.
