    I've look around at all the hardware stores here around the area and can't find anywhere with Tnuts or any bolts to go in my bed rack. Looks like i'm going to have to resort to buying them somewhere online.. I've made my own to hold my bed rack on, but i'm wanting something to hold some fishing rod holders i'm working on. Anyone know where i can pick something up that works in the Tacoma bed rails?


    Edit: Found the answer to my question using google search instead of TacomaWorld search. If anyone is interested, visit this page.

    I used some washers and a lock nut on the inside of the rail when I made my rod holders. Worked for me. I didn't even think about using some t-bolts.
