Heres another viable option. Maybe fit the bed bolt better as well? $26 for 6

I just ordered a set of these on EBay to put on my 2013. Looks like yours is a Gen1 as well. Still happy with these?

Yup thats a 2012, and I'm still very happy with the Toyota ones.
The only complaint is they are tight and i have to use a screw driver or something to pop them up when they are flat. Kinda a good problem lol better than loose and rattling

Got the Toyota D rings installed and they work great. I have the factory spray in bed liner so I had to cut around the bolt head and made some relief cuts over the factory washer so it would come out without issue. Turns out the factory washer is captive so we ground of the tabs on the bolt to allow for the D ring to go in the middle. We used the provided hardware to install the 3rd D ring in the middle of the bed.

I couldnt really find the tq specs for the bed bolts other than a random website that said 56ft-lbs so thats what I used.

Looks like the shop manual says 59 lbs for those looking to try this mod in the future.

Mind including a link for where you picked up your D-rings? The post from the OP is dead. and the last set I bought ended up being way too small, why dont sellers include detailed dimensions, lol?
