Has anyone installed one of these Overhead Hex racks ?

Yes, MESO makes them

well, I have the version before the hex rack*

 

I ordered and received a bedrug tailgate mat. I thought I did a good search before buying. Am quite disappointed as the mat does not cover all the tailgate. It covers 9" of the inside portion but there are holes that you attach it using the existing gate screws. Leaves about 3" of uncovered plastic. Sent a note to bedrug and they said that's the only option. If I'd known I would have bought something else.

 

clay bar?

 

^ This. Have used

$15 Mothers 07240 California Gold Clay Bar System

Mother's Clay Bar kit to remove overspray on several vehicles. Leaves the surface as smooth as a babe's behind. Follow up with a good coat of Carnauba wax and you'll be good. Warning though... once you feel the glassy-smooth surface, you'll want to do the entire truck. Just sayin'.

 

Crooks can swipe the code anywhere.

 

Got my order in for the wireless charger TSB. Will post back results to see if anything else gets damaged lol

 

Well that’s good to know. Do you have a pic?

 

I have the version designed to fit models with sunroofs and absolutely love it!! Difficult to go wrong with Meso products.

 

although I am a huge meso purchaser - bought the version for the double cab and sent it back. I rarely sand shit back.

the jam / compression nuts are junk and spun so impossible to tighten. Others with same complaint out there, but maybe I am part of an unlucky few. Who knows but I am very mechanically inclined and rarely have an issue these sorts of things.

that said meso took it back and refunded no questions asked and were very cool about that.

 

I'm currently 100% stock and those are 24.8 highway miles doing probably 70mph. MPGs seemed to have gotten better over the summer too.

 

That sucks! Thankfully, I did not encounter any issues inserting the compression nuts or installing the part.

 

what is this TSB? I haven’t heard anything for the tacomas and the wireless charger in my 22 Tacoma is hot garbage.

 

Raptor lights. Quick and easy

 

Agreed. I'm not using that wireless charging station anymore in my 2023. My phone comes out of there so hot I think it's going to damage it.

 

After 10 weeks lead instead of the anticipated 8, my RCI armored rear bumper finally arrived!

Too bad it's 105°f in the garage.

 

Nice!! What skids did you get?

 

Oh sorry, haha just re-read it! Someday I’ll get some bumpers too!

 

Thank you. Wow that’s a strong blink. Beautiful
