Has anyone Bobbed the bed off a second gen tacoma

I have an 05 tacoma SR5 2.7 4X4 xtra cab, I am wondering if anyone or if you know of anyone who bobbed 8-13 inches off their second gen tacoma. Thanks.

 

How would that work with the plastic bed?

 

You could just throw a 5ft bed on from a dubcab

 

that is effin sick (in a good way)

 

yeah they will

 

that might be really cool.....NOT!!!!

 

Don't get me wrong .... (pause) .... I am not busrting your chops but why would you do this?

 

Cant you just rework the shackles if you bob a tacoma?

 

Bob and coilover conversion? lol

 

Or what about bobbing and chopping off the shackles off the tacoma and having no shackles since there will be basically no overhang past the rear axles?

 

Bob it and link the rear end. They you have no shackles to worry about.

 

probably have to do some welding then, do you have a bobbed tacoma?

 

No way, Im not brave enough to do that lol. There are quite a few over on TTORA if you want to go check them out. They are all first gens though.

 

Can a taco do the die trying trail in Montrose,CO?

 

It's easier to maneuver a shorter length truck when you wheel.

 

^same wheel base just shorter bed and better approach angles right?

 

Yea. If it was linked you wouldn't have to worry about it. Looks nice photochopped. I dig it.

 

Got ya ...... thanks.

 

Yeah, What's what I meant More easier maneuvering a shorter truck

 

It would be interesting to see a regular cab with a dcSB. You'd have to chop the frame, exhaust, etc... and get a shorter drive shaft. But it'd look pretty decent and would have a pretty short wheel base while maintaining a factory look.

In fact, I think I might PhotoShop it in a little while to see what it might look like.
