    ^That's the P/N for 02/2016 and newer trucks. 08/2015-02/2016 needs 66143-04020: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2016-tacoma-tailgate-replacment-bushing-66143-04020.452351/

    66143-04021 is shown in Toyota's part catalog as superseding 66143-04020, even though it isn't a direct fit. The parts counter guy wouldn't know any better.

    There's a Napa part for GMs that's reported to fit: https://www.tacomaworld.com/posts/27177746/

    How difficult is it to swap the new bushing out?

    Super EZ - just pull the gate out a bit and the bushing is plug and play!
