Hello All from normally warm, sunny Florida.
My Taco is a 2009 2WD, dbl. cab., Pre Runner. We're in process of setting it up to flat tow. So far I've built the base plate and have it installed. The driveshaft disconnect will be installed next week along with the rear light(s) wiring. Then the auxiliary brakes. Still have to figure out how to keep the steering wheel unlocked while towing. Any thoughts on the steering will be appreciated.
