    Hi, I am new to the site and I was wanting to know how do I fit a light bar in the bumper slot, I don't want to trim if I can help it. I also would like to know how big of a tire I can fit with a 2.5 daystar leveling kit and 1.25 shackles in the rear.

    Hi Evan, welcome in!

    Try this link to things started: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/1st-gen-led-light-bar-ideas.346488/page-13

    2. Try the Lighting Section in this Forum (click on Forums above and pull down the Lighting tab). Ton of ideas there.

    3. Search function above. Type in what you need however I have found it more efficient to bounce back to your IE browser, type in "Gen 1 Tacoma light bar valence" (for example) then the search engine kicks in with better results for Tacoma World..typically. YMMV.

    Hope this helps. Pics!

    Not sure, search around there are a couple threads around with lots of info. I haven't put a lightbar down there myself but have seen it done many times
