    Heavy Lean with New Rear Shocks

    2017 DBL Cab TRD Off Road - not lifted New Rear Bilsteins BS-4600 (24-265973) installed. I now have a 2 1/2” (2.5”) lean on driver’s side. Truck is stockish, and only had the 1/2” typical “Taco Lean” before. Searched forums, nothing for solving this. Don’t understand why it’s so pronounced...

    Tow Hitch Pin Lock

    Measured...maybe it’s a different version. The outside measurements indicate a 3” distance between lock parts. That isn’t common from what I’ve seen. Most are 2 5/8”

    What is the best set-up to improve headlights and foglights?

    I’ve got a ‘17TRD OFF ROAD Double Cab, love the truck. But I so want more LEGAL light. Tired of these rice sliders with projector beams. Short of slapping on the Baja Designs lightbars from my buggy, what is the best and brightest way to go? Yes, I did a search, wasn’t helpful
