1995-2004 Tacomas have c-channel frames that are notorious for bending and cracking. The c-channel frame also contributes to axle wrap and wheel hoop at the rear axle. Toyota?s answer to this issue was to box in and reinforce the frame on the newer 05-09 Tacoma?s and FJ Cruisers. Our solution is our Taco Rear Frame Reinforcement Plates.
Q: Hello, A couple quick questions about these plates for my 98 4x4 Tacoma... Do these plates mount to both inner and outer aspects of frame? Will the inner frame drivers side plate extend the length of the gas tank? This is where I am developing a hole due to rust despite previous coatings with POR-15. Thanks, Rob Answer this question
