    happy with the light output. Will return with a lux meter measurement soon.
    Complaining below:
    kit comes with a cheap dime size rocker switch. Bought oem style to replace. Pretty disappointed this year/make/model specific kit didn’t come with a legit oem style switch. Light bar isn’t centered (vertically) in lower grill. Non adjustable. High by 5/8in

    Put a little bit of dirt on my taco today. Also had a fun tailgate party with my 2 year old. Conflicted because I want new wheels and tires but have so much tread left of the stock tires!!! What to do?!

    I am running exactly that setup & like it. Definitely firmed up the ride, not too stiff, not as plush as stock. It added some positive camber, just enough that I can see it, but aligned up ok. 1.5 inch AAL plus air spring overloads in rear to handle the weight. Just hit 10k mi with no issues. Stock tires & wheels.

    Good looking truck. I’m in the same boat on the wheels. I think I will stay with 16” and just keep the factory tires for a bit.
    Just a side note does your truck have TSS? And does the bumper interfere with it?

    I bought the Pro first and returned it next day and swapped for the Sport. Pro was bright AF, and I didn't want to blind the crap out of people.
    I only needed/used the bracket provided, and initially my alignment was wayy off. But I was easily able to adjust them after installation by pressing on it up or down from the front/outside to align it properly looking down.
    I bought the driving light, so the throw of the light is already quite far.

    used some 1/4” aluminum stock on the inside of the tailgate panel to make it nice and rigid along with lock washers and loctite.

    Perfect! I like that one u sent the link of. It’s very similar to the one I put on. The brand I have is from the brand Body Armor. I bought it from the 4 wheel store but I see a cheaper price here:

    https://bumpersuperstore.com/i-2396...front-bumper-for-toyota-tacoma-2016-2020.html

    I’ve been extremely happy with my front bumper. Not too big but still looks aggressive. I got a really nice warn winch and a bright light bar and it all works perfect!

    Will do. You definitely desensitize to it over time. This was a brand new 18 when I started.

    Yessir! It really is perfect for the hydroflask (or the damn 5 gallon bucket of water my wife carries around everywhere) but I catch myself tossing socket wrenches and tools in it all the time. It's so much more handy than I thought it would be when I ordered. And the customer service couldn't be better. I told her I needed one for the passenger side to fit my wife's Rtic 1 gallon jug and she got so excited to custom build a chalk bag that size haha. Very cool to talk to and she was super grateful. A+ to whoever discovered/shared this mod.
