    F150 style LED cargo bed light mod. Got them installed yesterday. Yes they do light up the whole cargo bed. Something different from everyone else.

    Passenger side.

    Driver side w/switch.

    Light output. Yes I know you can get a better light out put, and it's cheaper with led strips. But I ain't a fan of it. I ain't looking to lighting up a whole neighborhood.

    Agreed! My wife just bought me these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005W35V0E?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

    Not the best sliders, but definitely will help those dings and give the kids a step to get in without impacting clearance. Should be here today!

    Correct. They just bold directly to the rockers. Probably should be called sapling or tall grass sliders. but hey, they're functional and look good, IMO.

    I went in one hole particular that was prolly close to 3/4 1/2 covering my wheel deep. I was extremely surprised on how well the taco did compared to my friends who have lifted jeeps on 33's. my one friend in particular went in and got stuck in the middle so he had to back out. i later walked right through the hole with a trac and didnt even have to engage the locker. so you can imagine after doing that well that i was extremly suprised when the steering issues came

    Expect the unexpected.... But. You've now discovered why I like hills, rocks, and dry dusty trails over mud.

    You never know what kind of problems may have been there before, or the mudding could have caused it.

    This ^ I don't like putting a decent truck into a mud bog!

    I just got the OE style Tacoma/Tundra bed lights for the same reason. As soon as I can use my left arm again, I'll be putting them in. I do like the F150's switch more than the switch I picked though...

    Those aren't sliders at all. Please don't try using them as such, you might be disappointed with the results.
