The Curt Receiver Hitch, part # C13264 is confirmed as a fit for your 2016 Toyota Tacoma.

This is a Class lll hitch and it has a 2 inch receiver opening. I have attached the installation instructions for asked about. No drilling is required to install this hitch, but you will need a torque wrench like part # ALL944001.

If you plan on doing some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.

If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.

If you do not have a trailer wiring harness on your Tacoma I recommend the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector, part # C59236.

When working with electrical connectors I recommend using dielectric grease like part # 11755. This keeps dirt and moisture out of the electrical connections and helps prevent corrosion.
