    Hello for Ontario Canada,
    Thanks for adding me.
    So I am trying to get to the bottom of this topic as I have seen many links about misaligned beds and opinions are mixed.
    As most know the Tacoma box is not always aligned with the cab or frame.
    Some are out a little or others are out more.
    I have read many threads here and beyond and some people say yes that misaligned beds can be and other threads say NO. So can they be done realigned?.
    Can someone please tell me the correct answer and if you have proof that would be icing on the cake.
    Dealerships say NO but then again they say no for everything...lol.

    So you have seen many links about an "it" with mixed opinions, then describe your truck bed as not being aligned with the cab or frame, then ask if "it" can be done, but you don't say what that "it" is...

    If you're asking if the bed can be repositioned, then yes, that can be done by loosening each of the bolts holding the bed to the frame, pushing the bed into a suitable position, then retighten the bed bolts.
    It may also be possible the cab itself is misaligned, in which case you then loosen the body mount bolts and (similarly) push the cab into a suitable position (being careful not to dent/damage it where you're pushing it).

    Have not seen much, if any disagreement or mixed opinions on this, so if that's not the "it" you're asking, then you need to tell us what "it" it is.
