Bed Bending Issue

I have a snug top on my tacoma and it is starting to bow out and i want to put some brackets like total chaos make to reinforce the bed but i would also like to put in a decked system and i would like to know if anyone knows if there will be any issues with having both of them installed?

 

@McRib
I think he has some of these items installed.... bed stiffner and decked system.
Not sure if @NYCTaco52 might also.

 

thanks, i figured while im here i might as well ask if a bed compressor would work in this or if i would need to mount it somewhere else and if anyone knows a better place or any recommendations for compressors

 

Under the hood, in the cubbies behind rear seat or the bed are the most used options.

 

yea, its looking like the hood is gonna be the move bc i want a sub behind the seats and the bed is still up in the air

 

I do have both

 

No issues. The decked system leaves like a 6 inch space between the tailgate and the start of the decked system. So you'll have plenty of room. You could even install the bed stiffeners after the decked is already in

 

The compressor won't work with the decked. It covers a large portion of the bed cubby so you wouldn't be able to get the air hose attached

 

Thanks for the help, yea i see that upon a quick search, i just dont think i ever realized how close to the tailgate the bed stiffners are, and the compressor isnt a big deal ill just go for the engine bay but i wanna put in an sdhq switch pannel first and ill try and run someting around that

 

How much weight do you have on your shell? I just bought a shell for a 19, and am wondering if I should look into reinforcements too.

 

nothing but a bike rack, i thougt i would be fine but i also go really hard so im not sure if they are nessecary but im seeing a bit of bend and im sure that a decked wont help and im hoping to upgrade to a gfc one day so i would like to have everything set for that
