    Hey Silas, if you got a moment, can you measure your Hi-Lift from the bottom of the base to the tippy top and post it here?

    I think I know how I'm mounting the hi-lift but might require going to the 60" one.

    I might be going with a 60" one too... Hmm I figure it'll be about ~62"-63" judging from the 48" ones I have for my work truck. The top plate adds ~2" more to the top and the base plate adds an additional 1/4"

    May not work, hmmm. :(

    Was going to tuck it in between the spare and the tailgate with some fabbed brackets up against the bed walls. Brackets would hold the base plate and the tip. Would allow me to take everything out and have the bed pretty open if I ever needed to haul something.

    Looking like the bed narrows down too much right in front of the tailgate to fit the 60". The 48" is too short.

    No problem at all. I unfortunately spend way too much time looking at Craigslist. I'm looking for my next old scooter or motorcycle project.

    Kenny - if you check it out soon let me know what the mirrors look like and maybe the fender flares.

    In case he deletes this thread later I'll put up the numbers.

    toyota 4 door $1400 - $1400 (albuquerque)
