    I just got my n-fabs from 4wheelparts today, they took 15min per side to install. All you need is a torque wrench and a 13mm socket 5 bolts per side right to the cab/body very easy just give the bolts 15lbs ft torque and your set.

    looks good bro. definitely worth cash and makes the tacoma look that much better. looks like you got the 2" tube like mine. i think you meant they bolt to the cab not the frame.
    can't beat the price at 4wheelparts man. i didn't have a torque wrench so i just used a regular rachet and tighten as tight as i could. where did you find the torque spec?

    The torque specs were in the directions that came with them. My mistake you are totally right they bolt to the cab.

    The 3" just looks to bulky IMO. I think they would look better on a tundra, either way they are way better than tubes.

    Kinda be worried about them mountin to the cab... you don't think they're gonna have issues down the road because the metal of the cab is thin? I'd rather have something that bolts to the frame.
