I figured I would do a write up on this because I couldn't find any other post on tapering a toyota bed. My plans are to narrow the bed 8" on each side.
You might try using .045 cut off wheels in your grinder to cut the bed with. That's what I used cutting the tail off my runner and they worked great. Nice straight cuts and quick.
you might try just cutting the whole floor out the bringing the taillights togetherwelding in some supports the replacing the floor of the bed with expanding metal that way if you feel the bed with dirt or mud you can just wash it out. I dont know if you have alot of mud but we do here so i thought about doing that to mine. Just an idea
This is why we only tacked the perches. At assembly time, the caster angle/pinion angle, should have been meaured, and the housing rotated. Obviously it was not. But, in all reality, this is the only thing I think the Benders could have possibly improved the execusion of. Seriously though, it was built in one day, in the dirt, this is a very minor issue. Especially considering the perches are 100% on tubes, so a quick cut off, rotate/reweld, easy as doing this on a rear.KC_JoNeS said:It wasnt anyone's fault....so much....it is something that could have been addressed at Brian's level. But, how could he know.
It still is a sick rig no doubt.
