    Derp on me I totally forgot to update.
    I bought the ones from ruff stuff. Worked great easy to replace and the new ones come with a lock to leave it twisted up. I feel like that’s more dangerous. I rather break another pin over let the gate slam against the gas spring? Or worse?

    any way I got 2 pins and leave one in the cubby of my truck bed in case I break another one in the wild

    I believe cutouts are for different lighting options. I didn't end up using them and was able to install my Baja design lights without them. I didn't use them because when I sent all of my pieces to get powder coated those pieces weren't powder coated so I left them off.

    As for the support brackets, there is really only one orientation that they fit/lineup in. I just took both support brackets and tried them in different orientations until they lined up accordingly. I'd go take pictures but don't want to deal with snow on the ground.

    The offset mounting holes are bolted to the bumper near the spot where you'd find the other support brackets. You'll line them up against the frame, then mark the frame to drill. I can take a photo if needed.

    Does anyone know if any of these lights will work with the reverse light cutouts? What are the dimensions of the cutouts by the way? Thanks.

    I would check the schematic drawings of the S2 flush mounts they usually offer on the product page on baja designs website, and for the rigids as well, and compare that to whatever those lights might offer. The issue I see is that C4 gives you a custom backing plate for either the BD or the Rigid lights to bolt into (2 varieties total). So if the bolt holes dont line up with the holes in the backing plate, then you're left to come up with your own solution.

    Does this bumper have side wing gussets located so there's an easy marker to cut for 35's and still have a capped end without welding?

    Curious if anyone on this thread that has the rear bumper installed with a swingout run into any problems with the factor cross traffic sensors going on and off while in reverse. I have a 16 Tacoma premium package with the 4 sensors in the rear bumper. The two on the lateral sides (outer bumper) do not go off but specifically the two in the middle near the license plate.
