    Your pop n lock looks different then mine. Wonder if they changed the design? Looks like your mechanism hits the lock arm in a spot where it take less pressure to lock/unlock.

    Mine doesn’t unlock 75% of the time. You can hear it try but it just doesn’t have enough torque to move the arm. It does locks every time.

    Good luck with it.

    Need some assistance tying into fuse block under dash on driver's side please? I added a 6x multi-relay box with soft touch control but cant find anywhere to tap into ACC power under dash.

    Is there a fuse tap available for the Toyota? I noticed the fuses are very small.

    Bought this from another TW brother where he modified the Pop&Lock bracket and had it jb welded to have more leverage in engaging/disengaging the lock.

    It's getting there.
    They're a very high quality strobe light that are normally installed on police cars, fire trucks or ambulances. I'm using them because as a volunteer firefighter we can run 'blue lights' for when we are responding to calls.

    This is what I have and it seemed to be bigger than what is in the 2017 Tacoma.

    Finally had time to get out today! Just got up and hit the road, ended up at Elephant Butte Res. Got to try it on a few hills, sand, and actually did a little fishing! Didn’t get boat out yet, but soon! This is at North end close to inlet, water was flowing and muddy! Went for a hike and came within about 1 ft of stepping on a rattler!

    Later made it down to the Dam site, finally wind quit! Great drive home, ready for 5k checkup tomorrow and installation of front camera!

    Put it to work again. And to think I was worried a 5 foot bed wouldn't be as useful. 10' long boards? No problem.

    These rims look good. I’m surprised how cheap they are too. $80 bucks a rim on eBay.

    It's already up another foot but I'm high enough above it and will stay dry as long as it doesn't get too high and erode the bank. Thanks :hattip:
