    Its not a bed rack, but I ordered transmission and t case skid on 7/17 and got tracking today. Arrival on Thursday. Seems like they're catching up just a bit.

    I purchased a full skid package (steel powder coated) + gas skid on July 8th.
    It's been 4 weeks and i haven't heard anything.
    Not complaining (yet:))

    Both of our bed racks appear to be in great condition out of the box. No obvious dings or issues to speak of. We did break one of the Toyota c-channel anchors when tightening it down, though. I don't recall cranking that one down very hard, so be careful with those. I reached Tim at RCI by phone, who said that they'd gladly provide some more anchors as they have plenty in stock. The awning mounts and bike mount are also in good shape.

    So, in summary, our two bed racks took 1-2 weeks longer than anticipated. And communication was challenging given that RCI is significantly understaffed, as they've said in this thread. But they were very professional when we picked everything up at their facility, where they took time to double check that everything was as it should be. We'd order the racks from them again, but would definitely give them a few extra weeks to come through, and we'd get some extra c-channel anchors, too.

    Received full skids last week as promised. Took roughly 3 weeks, so no complaints here. Hopefully RCI can work out the issues some folks have been having with them.

    I'm very happy with RCI so far. I have a front and rear bumper and currently saved up for the full skid set.

    I generally develop brand loyalty, RCI = good stuff.
    And the same is true for crappy brands CBI = avoid like the plague. They've pissed me off with their crappy service and products so they get the privileged of never hearing from me (or my money) again.

    update:
    Email RCI about my issues on the rack and within a few days they called me and shipped out a whole new rack to replace the damaged rack. Unfortunately 2 beams out of the three came damaged again. At this point just sending back the beams with the most damage on them and painting the other beams that don't have significant damage on them.

    Going on 6 weeks for skid plates now. Have sent them messages multiple times and still no contact. I don't mind a delay, but contact any time during the process would be good.

    I called RCI yesterday about my skids (5 weeks) and they said they're making another run of front engine skids now, and within a week, mine should be out the door.

    A note for RCI. Toyota uses 12mm and 14mm size fasteners. The nuts you include are 13(?)mm.
    Please include 12mm nuts, I used the nuts I bought from Toyota when I bought the off-road gas tank straps.

    Got half my order yesterday. Other half should be here tomorrow. Just short of 8 weeks for full delivery. When I called, it sounded like they were surprised that the order hadn't gone out. Told me that they would work on it immediately and got the confirmation email that they had shipped 2 days later.

    What’s up guys, I joined this community just to update you guys. I don’t even have a taco, I have a 4runner but this is the only thread I can find with current RCI lead times and have been following it last few weeks.

    Anyway- I placed my order on July 5, just called to get status, first time calling them and talked to a guy who was polite and helpful. He said their CNC machine has been down and won’t be back up for another week or so, at best my stuff would ship out in maybe 2-3 more weeks but I’m not going to hold my breath for that. It sounds like they’re swamped, but they said they would ship parts out as they’re completed. I ordered Powder coated sliders + aluminum skids FYI.

    As for the previous guy asking about a Labor Day sale, I don’t think they are looking for a ton more orders that they’re going to struggle to fulfill so I wouldn’t count on a sale but that’s just my 2 cents. I bought my stuff during the 4th of July sale and this is where I’m at.

    I just got my RCI Order over the weekend. Havent installed it yet but I got just the engine skid coated black this time around to see how I like it and ill likely order more after. Bent up my stock skid pretty good on a stump, it crumbled like a piece of aluminum foil!
