2009 Tacoma Broken Bed

I've got a 2009 Taco a and the bed is loose. Not the D-Ring bolt, but up front toward the cab.

I've attached a picture of it.

I'm looking for the correct size socket and a replacement bolt size (I'm gonna try and tighten it first - god willing).

Thanks

 

So it's not a broken bed. Just a loose bolt?

T55 and also check underneath to make sure nothing is actually broken.

 

I'm hoping its just the bolt that I can remove/tighten. I can actually lift front of passenger bed by about 1/4" and it rattles pretty bad when driving over bumps. Thought it was something behind seat until I checked bed. Hopefully it's an easy fix.

Oh, are those bed bolts called something special if I have to order them?

Thanks.

 

Yes, you can take them off. I did so I could put another set of D Rings up there.

Part number & name may or may not be(double check): 64189-0C011 BOLT, REAR BODY MOUNTING

Just spray the threads up with WD40 or something before attacking and it should come out.

 

Some guys use a spacer to take up looseness.. have heard many times of the beds becoming "loose" but the bolts are fully tightened.
