    Workin' on it....

    :puke:I know that pit of your stomach feeling. Man I feel for ya.....

    Similar thing happened to me when I was drilling a hole for my bed braces. I had to borrow a drill from a buddy, and his corless drill sucked -- basically the drill bit wasn't turning fast enough to drill through the steel and just kinda grabbed and mangled the hole. Luckily in my case, the hole ended up only being an 1/8" off where I needed it to be and it's buried behind the brace now.

    Goddam, next time put drill on low speed.

    You should still be good though, do you have this tool? This tool is necessary for those to work.

    Might also have the option of price shopping tacoma and Tundra racks with the extra width and two mounts for roof rack.
