    There’s notches in our beds that fit a 2x6 or 2x8 with a little sanding. His look like they’re just resting in it.

    Sorry for the late reply! These are Level 8 mk6 wheels 17x9 -12 offset originally purchased in bronze but decided to have them powdercoated white. They don't make this wheel anymore so there is a limited supply, I got mine from Amazon.

    That would be crazy to drive around and not have that board attached to the bed. :eek:

    Yeah, what eatsleeptacos said. There is a notch in the bed for a 2x8 to fit in. It's a little tight so I chiseled out two of the corners on the 2by.

    Nope...Not that crazy. It fits snug and there really isn't enough air flow to pull it up. I used one like this on my 2010 Taco and it never came out. The nice thing about it is I can just take it out whenever I'm not hauling my bikes.

    Looks like an interesting utility cap you have, who's the manufacturer?

    yeah. probably the most room of any camper out right now. It does have its drawbacks but it works for me.
    (considering taking offers on my flip pac...)

    I pulled both side windows out, cleaned the sealing surfaces, cleaned the gaskets, reinstalled them, and torqued down all the hardware.

    Gonna hit it with the hose tomorrow and see what happens

    I wish I knew!! I stopped going to the dealership because last time it literally took them 2.5 hours and I had a scheduled appointment!! Apparently they have a five year old doing it!!!

    It takes one person 15 minutes to drive it in then the next 1.5 hours number of peeps to look at it than one to fix it. And takes another 15 minutes to drive it out. Or like I saw in the past fix it in 5 minutes if at all loose the truck for 4 to five hours than find it. And bring it to you.

    I bought my truck and it was dragging a$$. It has a coil lift spacer in the front, but nothing in the rear. I think they did the leaf spring recall and did not put back whatever was in there. The u bolts looked new and were easy to take off. I put in a 3 inch block to see how it would sit. Here it is.
