$301 shipped, 16400-50360

I'm going back to OE, can get it shipped for $283 today with the 25% off toyota sale.
Happy to...
Does the truck have the running boards on it? Behind the back of those is where youll want to look. And lay under with a flashlight and check upward from rear wheel well. Easier to see rust at night.
