    I've got a plain Jane 2015 Tacoma 4x4 with no tow package. It has three holes in the rear bumper to install a tow ball. What size shaft on the ball do I need for the middle hole? It is plugged with a cap right now.

    I am not sure but you want 1/16" play max. I had a buddy that installed a ball with 1/8" slop and halfway from Tx to Mi. it came lose.
