Pros

Great accessory for my truck. Easy to get in the bed with the tailgate down. I am a mature person and find this to be very helpful in accessing things in the truck bed.

To install you'll need to loosen two 17mm hex bolts on the bumper, which are tightened at the factory by certified strongman with a grudge. Easy to install and a great addition to my truck.

The step has two one which makes the step more easily accessible by a foot, at the cost of sticking out more, and the recommended oem setting which tucks the step closer to the mid-line. Additional care must be taken when assembling the hinge to the f...  Read More



Cons

Returned enclosed both items and did not get refund for both items. Should provide return fee upfront when print return label instead of deducted after the fact. With expensive item and return quantity of 2 and refund one is unjustified.

    Insist on genuine toyota parts with this kinda stuff


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Due to the shape of the aluminum arm that bolts to the frame a universal joint and an extender is required to torque down the bolts


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Additionally the angle is awkward and you will have to rely on touch to find and tighten the bolts


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When mounting to the frame rotate the arm slightly clockwise to get lower bolt started first then rotate back to installation position for the upper bolt


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Like anything if you attempt to install it without the right tools you will not like it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I am older so it was difficult getting on to the truck bed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Too old to climb in and out of the truck bed
