    Creative Front End Light Mounting

    Where can I find this bar??? I've been looking. N-Fab seems to be on lots of online catalogs but also completely out of stock.

    Seeking suggestions: Mounting bar for lights!

    Really hoping to mount some LP4 or LP6 lights in front bumper area on my 3rd Gen.... and I'm finding nothing on the market for a mounting solution. Baja Designs has one option that comes with like five lights.... but I have to believe there's a solution out there that will allow me to mount two...

    Newly-Purchased Leer Camper: Junk?

    Hi, six-time Tacoma owner, and nine of my ten trucks have been Toyota-- all but one or two with fiberglass camper shells. Just bought a new Leer 100XR, and wow things have gone downhill for that brand. This is the third or fourth Leer product I've owned. For sure the front removeable slider is...

    E-brake adjustment after rear brake replacement?

    Just had the honor of going through axle seal replacement, had a good shop do it as that job is beyond my resources. Included full rear brake replacement with OEM parts. The e-brake handle now pulls up to my ear and doesn't feel firm at all. Shop says it'll get better as auto-adjuster gets going...

    Group 31 battery upgrade

    Hi all Seemed like a good idea to upgrade battery size since I'm also installing a few more accessories. After installing the setup shown in the photo (including cleaning up terminal plate connections of paint) the battery couldn't turn over the truck. A quick jumper cable connection fired...

    Ride-Rite Air Springs...Y or N?

    Current setup: TRD OR long bed with ICON Stage One and ICON Add-A-Leaf. Lifted a couple inches, which is all I need. This setup works great as a daily, or for the off-road camping I do. But when I add a rear rack and my 280-lb dirt bike, it's not enough. So, the age-old question: Upgrade rear...

    Stainless Steel Brake Lines?

    I think we all have an understanding of the nature of stock Tacoma brakes- mediocre. Bad even, when Tacomas are a bit heavy like mine when carrying moto on back, camping gear, whatnot. For this and my last Tacoma, I switched to these rotors which at least avoid warping like the stock rotors. I...

    What have you done to, or with, your Tacoma today?

    Count me as a Pedal Commander fan--installed it today and the little gadget works great, makes the pedal response way more immediate and has a ton of adjustability. Had considered the OVTune option, which I realize is a completely different thing...but PC is a great choice. Wish I did it sooner.

    Cool, thanks. Just to be clear, is that a spacer for both front and rear?

    Unequal ride height left vs right

    Hi and apologies if this is addressed elsewhere (plz direct me if so) Just installed Icon stage 1 suspension with Icon AAL in my '16 TRD OR LB and the truck rides GREAT. No changes to front spring height; went on straight out of box and put truck about where I wanted it. All good, but I see the...

    On-Board Air-- Add Reservoir Tank?

    I'm looking at adding an on-board air system, wired in via accessory fuse block and done up proper. I can also see the benefit of having compressed air available for a bunch of reasons. Anyone add a air tank to their system? Location? Problems?

    Low ATF from factory in 2016 TRD OR

    I would have hoped it would have been checked earlier, like when I had TSB update, but I suppose it's a significant process since there's no dipstick. But given it was a known issue, I would have thought one of many techs providing services along the way would have been proactive.

    Low ATF from factory in 2016 TRD OR

    In Sept 2019 I bought an apparently well cared-for 2016 TRD OR 4x4 (long bed, if that matters) that benefited from regular maintenance under Toyotacare. One of the first things I did was go through the hoops to have local dealer update the trans per TSB 77-16. Only today, upon having the 60k...

    Low ATF from factory in 2016 TRD OR

    Sept 2019 I purchased a seemingly well cared-for 2016 TRD OR 4WD (long bed, if that matters) that had regular maintenance and benefited from extended warranty. One of the first things I did was have a local dealer update the transmission (via TSB 77-16.) Despite all that attention, no one ever...
