  1. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    Found this picture on my phone depicting the three red markers to the rear. Again, none of these lights work unless truck is being used as a toad, all lights connected to the wiring going to the taillights and nothing hooked up to the truck. Originally, I wanted to tap on the mirror lights so...

    Here is the list of the markers I ordered from etrailer. All of them have a clear lens, except the three markers that face the rear. Those are red and placed on the center of the truck, also the most rear markers on the rear fenders produce a red light instead of amber. Picture you’re towing a...

    Oooh nice, some of those CBI bumpers are really nice… i just love the stock look some of them have. Ah, gotcha, I think I'm tracking now.. I don’t remember exactly the difference in width, but it's definitely not over ¼ inch (1/2 vs ¾ or 7/8). I added one of the washers that came with the...

    Automatic transmission, and I leave it in Park. Got about 4k miles of flat towing, so far so good with the setup.
  7. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    Hey sorry for the delay… yes, I encountered the same issue when they way you have it that’s pretty much as good as it gets. I marked the sides with red paint where the ubolt sits to see if it moved after driving it, but it didn’t. Towed it to Tahoe and back like that. when I got back, I added a...
  8. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    That’s awesome! They didn’t have the baseplate available when I did my set up, post a pic once installed if you don’t mind. Curious to see how it comes out. I had a few folks reaching out on this forum and Dynamax group, glad this thread is helping others. Hey not sure if I mentioned it, but...

    Oh snap! Small world, I’ll look for it and send you a PM. Not a big deal. Sucks that theres not a lot of info on tacomas. I’ve struggled with this since the last gen. I’m in LA for the week, I’ll be back next week and send you those measurements.
  11. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    I did! It works flawlessly despite of what you read online. Key is taking your time installing the mechanism on the shaft/diff. It is not complicated at all. I placed it by the front right seat mount. I screwed up the first try, but second try came out good. All sturdy and functional. I’ll try...

    I ended up with steel shaft, I talked in length with Bill and discussed the differences. He assured steel was as good as aluminum. I have not read negative reviews on them, but I might be the first. I had issues with them balancing my shaft, when they sent it to me, it was not balanced well and...

  14. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    Sure thing. I have a blue Ox tow bar (7500 lbs) and used a Gen Y Hitch to achieve the appropriate height level between the truck and RV. I also added anti-rattle brackets at both places. It's a little overkill everywhere, but that’s me. I used the front D-Ring shackle kit from Rough Country as...
  15. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    That was funny and true! It provides power to the taillights and, in my particular case, to the battery charger. See it as the electrical cable that anything you would normally tow has..

  17. Flat Tow Setup on 4th Gen Tacoma Done

    Just wanted to share that 4g tacomas can be flat towed with a driveline disconnect. There is NO steering wheel lock on this gen, so there is no need to bypass that at the fuse box. I tested this by leaving the truck off, locked, and on the air overnight, but the steering wheel did not lock. I...
  18. Steering Wheel Not Locking

    Hello all, Asking for some help here.. So, I am setting my 24 TRD sport for towing behind our RV on all 4 tires. I have everything wired and installed, but I just ran into a small problem bypassing the steering wheel lock. The way to unlock the steering wheel and keep the truck turned off...
  19. Does the Toyota app not have scheduled start?

    That Is actually a neat future I wished Toyota had. Wife’s Tesla is set up by the day. Nice to get in a warm car, and entirely defrosted in cold weather by the time you leave the door.
