    Lots baby!
    I am still waiting on the powder coater for the last batch. Hopefully they will be done today.

    I will have a few extra. After I get all of the group buy participants shipped, I will post what I have left.

    Got it installed. Perfect fit and didn't skimp on the hardware. Holds the battery in like glue. When I bought my truck, the previous owner didn't maintain the battery and you can see what had happened. I'm so glad I saw this thread. Thanks a ton and great job. Hit me up if you have future 1st gen projects.

    All done! Looks great. I held onto the battery and could move the truck back n forth because it holds the battery so tight! Thanks again @Coupe

    I encountered a similiar issue. So I ended up using the bolt that came with my OEM hold down. It's longer than the bolt @Coupe sent. And it fixed the my problem. Not saying that will help you. But you never know. :notsure:

    The bolt length was not a problem. I think my issue was caused by the height of the battery and my unwillingness to bend the front half of the bar all the way down to the chassis.

    The cables are 0 awg made by Ct sounds they're oxygen free copper, and the battery terminals are made by JL audio, been using these on high power installs for about seven years they last and look good. Thanks for the compliment.

    That’s a 2017 Tacoma. I think he already had those made.

    That's very true! He's posting on the wrong thread. @Coupe has other Battery tie down threads that he has made for the other gens. You can see how it doesn't reach over to the radiator core support and the fuse box is huge!!! Good eye! @SwampYota

    Lots baby!
    Just a little update.

    I have some issues getting the gloss black powder. It has finally arrived. I hoped to get these last few powder coated tomorrow.

    I will follow up with an update on Wednesday.

    After I get the last batch shipped, I will post up what is left over.

    I will ship to Canada.

    Sorry for the delay.
