I'm running the Victory 4x4 bed stiffeners on my 2d Gen Tacoma. Those of you asking if you should install them with the bed rack and stuff on (fully loaded) I don't believe it matters as the stiffeners are just 90 degree corner braces in the simplest form. As long as your bed walls are square to the bed floor it shouldn't matter.

You provided a link to R4T for the stiffeners - what that site shows is different than what we see you installing in this video - what happened since 5/13/20? I liked that fact that what I see you installing goes full height - R4T's current version does not.

If this truck had Total Chaos bed stiffners, why change and add more holes to the bed?
@GhettoFabulous6704 жыл бұрын
You need it, don't need it, whatever. All tho it is a nice piece to add, it does get in the way a lil bit especially when you need your truck for work, and need it to be flat and flush as much as possible. Though, you'd only need this if your bed is rusted to shit, and is flexing, as long as you got your tail gate It'll be total fine especially for a 16-20 taco... as thats where it gets most of its support. Though I'd definitely pick one up, if there is one a lot more slicker.

Show some proof that beds will bow over time. I've only ever seen one example on a 2nd gen. Be better than just spreading fear to sell your products. There's still use for these as additional tie downs, and MAYBE they MAY help your bed from bowing but there's absolutely no proof that will happen with the weight of a topper or tent. Toyota engineers didn't cheap out of not putting on one 90 degree piece of metal that means the difference of a bowing and non-bowing bed.

@nooblessnoobster4 жыл бұрын
If you want to use a bed extender, there are some things you have to do to make it work. The bed extenders are originally designed to be placed directly onto the bedside. What you can do is fab up a piece that bolts to the bed stiffeners and have the bed extender bolt to that new item. I've done that with the ATH stiffeners and the OEM extender. From the looks of it here, you could still find a way to bolt a bracket to these to achieve the same result.
