    can anyone help me with the name of the star shaped tool Toyota uses all over the bed of the truck?
    Size too if you know.

    I am trying to add the bedrail to front of bed but out of the 1000 different socket attachments this is the one I don’t have.

    Thank you.

    I am pretty sure it is a Torx T25 or T30.

    Edit: Just looked, It's a T30.

    You mean Torx? The large ones in the back holding the bed to the frame are T55

    Torx.

    T30 for rail bolts
    T40 for tie down bolts
    T55 for bed bolts.

    I just installed bed stiffeners and the header rail so fresh in my mind.
