    Rattle sound on 2019 TRD off-road

    DIY Limb Risers AKA Brush Deflectors AKA Bush Wires AKA Bird Rests AKA "What the hell are those things for?"

    I would highly recommend not doing that... Your bed and cab flex differently from each other and can put different strains on the lines. If you used something more flexible like paracord you could do it, but not with a steel line.
