Hey Jon, I'm an engine cooling engineer at Toyota. Just want you to keep in mind that you're blocking off close to half of your grille with this light bar, and if driven in hot weather or under very strenuous conditions you might run into problems. I'm not saying this as a PR person of anything, just a concerned engineer 😂 the grille is open a certain amount for a reason!

I mentioned this in the video a few times. But the truck has a grille shutter that will shut anyways a highways speeds to my understanding

@TRDJon sorry, I missed that you mentioned it somehow. Yes, the grille shutter does shut at higher speeds, but after low speed activity that would heat the engine like off-roading, the idling condition might be worse where the grille shutter is open.

We shall see. I see no real difference in this or the TRD Pro on that toyota uses that blocks pretty close to the same amount.

Great vid man, ordered the hood struts and Cali raised low pro ditch mounts. I think I will still go the "TRD Pro Grill" direction though. Saving a couple bucks isn't a priority for me. I like that OEM look I suppose.

I took a gamble and tried Triple R lights.. and I don't regret it one bit. They focus more on Rally lights but I put in their 24" Linear Elite on my roof rack and I don't regret it. Not quite as bright as BD or Rigid but they're also not as expensive.

Hi Jon, Thanks for the great video and the lead to Redline Tuning for the hood struts! You are 100% correct, Toyota ought to had hood struts as factory installed. My 2024 TRD OFF-ROAD is missing memory function for electrically adjustable seats, worse omission than the struts as it is like a five to ten dollar switch. Beyond these two more or less minor short comings, the truck is a beast and I am very happy with the power, performance and capability! Keep up the great videos🎉

Well considering this mod is for a 4th Gen Tacoma, that suggests they already bought it and are maybe looking to modify it.
