Bed Bobbing - Anyone?

With the actual cost of the body work and the reduction in value of the vehicle (except for a very very niche market) you could build something like this. Never bump your hitch again......

 

Some people don't have $$ as a motivating factor.

 

As far as I can tell that's the Old Mill office park just off of 2-15 and 6200 S in Cottonwood Heights. I'm not 100% on that, though.

 

I like it, when the Bro-Coma gets SAS'd I plan on taking 8-10" off the rear. Way better departure bro.

 

Yep!

Good eye! Very close!

 

I'm all for reducing value on cars. I fact I recently chopped up a BRZ and sold it for a nice loss too. Whatever loss I incur I make up with enjoyment of driving a unique/built vehicle. So it doesn't really bother me. As long as I can break even at the end I don't care.

Worst case I'll paint a black stripe like everyone else that bobs toyotas.

 

Why not stretch the wheel base? Trim the rear fender well back. Relocate rear axle a few inches back.

I also had an old 85 4Runner. I had ideas about bobbing it but after really taking into account how useful that space was I decided to move the rear back 3.5" and it helped departure quite a bit.

If you really don't need the bed space then bobbing it would keep your turning radius smaller

Edit: mine was purely for Offroad purposes. But I did use it as DD because I could

 

I have a DCLB. Breakover angle isn't great and the turning radius is a pain on some tight trails. I would not recommend stretching.

 

Any progress on this? I just bobbed the bed on my first gen Tacoma and came across this. If you don't do it I might have to

 

My favorite from that thread....

 

lol I forgot all about this

 

Do it. You won't be the first or the last.

 

You ever saw 2 girls 1 cup? This is fucked up like that.

Okay, okay. It's not even close. But, if you like that style, do it.

 

TRD Segway edition?

With limp control?

 

I bobbed my old '89 16.5" and cut 4" out of the fenders. I'd love to see a newer one bobbed.

 

Is this in reference to lorenna bobbet?

I have no idea if this would work, but would a 5' bed fit?

 

Dumb

Looks hideous

 

I really see an opportunity here for mobtown to expand... bobtown offroad.
