    Yep! Well I had to order and pay for them. He said he'd swap me out for free but I figured just in case I'll keep both.

    An inch I think. So it'll be taller than a stock Tacoma finally!

    And I found some almost 37's for a 16 wheel. If those are really available I'm doing it. If not then I keep the 35's.

    Check out the allpro 3rd gen. They're running 37s. You'll make it work.

    Well that sucks. Installed the shackles. Gave about the lift I wanted. But now my pinion angle suuuuuuucks. Basically went from the good 3* down to 3* up. And also vibrates a bit.

    Alright man I decided to pull the trigger on some bedsides today from McNeil! Let's hope they live up to the hype!

    Woohoo! I hope yours fit like mine did. Also don't forget to get me a pic and I'll show you how I did mine. Unless you want to figure it out yourself. Yours might be different anyway.

    I def will send you some pics. Do you mean where you let the tail lights be the guiding factor? I wouldn't mind seeing what you did to reinforce the bottom of the front and rear of the bedsides though.

    When you take off your tail lights there is a big bracket that's part of the bedside. The fiberglass has something similar but wasn't quite drilled right. I think because of my self lowering or whatever it's called tailgate. So I ended up cutting some of the fiberglass but then cut that whole piece off the stock bedside (ah! Because it has some welded on nuts you need) and used it as a big washer to strengthen that whole area.


    For the whee openings. Make sure you get 4-6 of their special fender washer things. You need those too. Then making a bracket for those I just used some aluminum strap from Home Depot going from the fender washer things up to the stock bedside mounts.

    Funny you say that about the washers. They told me those washers wouldn't really work for that application. I can def look at seeing how yours works though.

    They wouldn't work? You drink a hole in the bedside and mount a bracket wherever you want. How does that not work with your setup. What a weird comment. Haha
