Where is the suggested mounting position on a 2015 tacoma? I have read that care must be taken so that it does not interfere with the airbags.

As for where to mount it. I'm not exactly sure but if I was to guss I'd put it above the parking brake on the lower panel jut be sure to keep it level.

I put it in my 2007 Tacoma. I went to http://www.crutchfield.com/ to get the proper face plate and mounting hardware for the radio. Went in easy with the instructions and fit very well. Crutchfeild is very good about telling you weter things will it or not.

i dont know for sure. my tacoma was a sr5 extended cab. direct fit no drilling of the frame. had to take off the eyelet rings on front of frame. was able to leave the tow hook on. my guess is it should . also had skid plate on , didnt effect the application

On top of the cab overlooking the bed would be an easy spot with self tapping screwed. Or on the tailgate again with screwes and a quick disconnect if you wanted to take the tailgate off.. I dont think you would want to mount it any lower as it may not give the view you would want. You could if you wanted mount under the bumper you would need to put a strong and very large like 4 or 5 inch wide and deep U channel around it to protect it

Well, if you're mounting it to your pickup, I would mount it behind the cab, to the front of a toolbox if you have one. If you use a 90° bracket, you'll have plenty of room.

Mounting location is important in picking up all your air stations. I mounted mine at the top of a front window white side out. There should be nothing else to purchase.

Does not allow hood to close properly on 2015 Tacoma PreRunner Sports. See my review with pics. Check out Tacoma World as well for similar feedback. There must have been a slight change to the body for 2015.

Maybe on the edges of the bumper. Next the tubes. But it's not meant for it. Be better off with a light bar above windscreen

The rear of my '97 now appears a little higher than the front, though I wouldn't say 4 inches. With the airbag suspension the rear would "kneel" when you park for ease of loading, but with the kit it is up where it can take a cargo load on the road. The tops of my bumpers measure close to the same height from the ground now. Did you get the front shocks installed at the time the rear springs were installed? Even if the existing shocks were still good, that is a good idea and will affect the stance. Did you put a 4x2 kit on a 4x4 truck? That would definitely mess up the stance. Possibly you got so used to seeing it sitting down on it's haunches that the rear just looks too high now? Folks on the Ford forums might have more info, some of them are techs with a lot of experience. Just a note, I got mine last April and still like them even if my truck rides like a truck now instead of a car.

Are you mounting it to the stock bumper or the bestop bumper? If you are mounting to the bestop bumper it is simple bolt on but be carful the bolts are not very reinforced and the tube can be easily bent

I replaced mine and saw no sign of airbags within bumper, maybe they are higher on body, if you hit something with this bumper, damage will be on other vehicle,lol, great bumper

First four answers are incorrect. These are definitely for the FRONT. You can tell by the top - it's threaded to insert into the upper arm. The rear shock has a hole mount on top and bottom as Roy points out below. Bilstein makes a 5100 for the rear as well. I recently put them all around on my 2007 Tacoma. Rear is easy, front requires a spring compressor or if you have a local shop that will install customer provided parts the price should be around $125

First always park in good spot, not backed in at the end. My rack has a 6" side rail. I can loop a small plastic coated cable (ready made or pieced together at Lowe's) enough to discourage the average lowlife.

The bar across the top has two mounting tabs on the backside that you cannot see in the attached photo. I put the two front floods from the existing TJ bumper in this spot.

Where it is mounted does not matter; it does need to be protected from damage,. Can you still have it reasonably protected where you will mounted? (protected from rock/debris strikes & vandalism) If so, attaching to the bumper should be fine.

It does fit all 2005-2015 Tacoma models and installs in the factory rails. It will not fit under a tonneau cover.

I just put this on a 2010 F350 (same suspension) and it fit great with no clearance issues. The "death wobble" seems to have been eliminated as of now. This is what I put on to try and fix it.
