2012 Tacoma, just crossed the 90k mark and changed the oil/rotated the tires today. As I was backing out of the garage I heard something fall out. I stopped immediately and it was under the back end on the Passenger side near the tire & spare tire. Anyone have any idea what this is?

Thanks

Yup, weight off the drums in the rear, you could probably jb weld it back on. You may need it as its to balance the drum.

Or just take it to a shop and have them tack weld it back on correctly.
