    A 1 piece bedrail will resist movement more than the individual feet.

    Thats what i'm thinking, but even Stefen's bed sides are sad after having his RTT on, thats why i want to build it into the actual bed bolts

    I'm not planning on beating on the truck at all, so I think they may suit my needs well

    I was impressed when I pulled them out of the box. Only thing I didn't like was the location of the flat tabs so I cut those off and changed them to something a little more functional and added some big tabs for the tent mounts since I dont like the U-bolt style mounts.

    I ordered mine with the hilift and quick fist mounts too in the "tall" height

    Okay I do not want the "tall" ones but I did want the tabs and hi lift mount. I've been going out with ZERO tools or Recovery equipment and I need to change that haha

    I think you have to get the tall option in order to fit the hi-lift on the side like how mine is and 8-9" over the bed is pretty optimal and still mostly under cab height. Its nice to have the extra room too. I personally wish mine were like 2-3" taller than they are now to fit Rotopax on the side.

    Thanks, they are great trucks.

    Offroad trip yesterday, Tundra did phenomenal through Box Canyon. Sliders and 35's are next now! Landed on the frame a few times. Great times with @TRON @JTS2014TACO @JerryTaco @SuperiorDetail @cmack @Kyouto42

    Determined it's time for sliders for good measure. Didnt need them with good spotters but is still good re assurance
