In Afghanistan help me out with measurements?

Hey Taco people,

I need some help. I’m designing a bed rack but I need some dimensions. Preferably a LONG bed but they should be the same width but +/- a foot in length as a short bed I think.

1. The distance between the front bed bolts (center to center of the bolts) within a ¼” is fine

2. Same measurement for the rear.

3. The distance from the front bolts to the rear bolts down the middle of the bed, not directly from a front bolt to rear bolt because that would be on an angle.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

 

Looking to build a technical?

 

Exactly.

 

Make a drawing and I can do it for you?

 

Damn, they must be upgrading! Last time I was there they were using Mitsubishi Pajeros and Land Cruisers!

Are the bolts the same between 2nd and 3rd gens? I assume they are because I'm pretty sure that Toyota used the same composite bed in both gens.

Stay frosty, Marine!

S/f!

 

I’m building a bed rack for a overland setup with a hard shell RTT and some other accessories. I have all the design skills and fabrication knowledge, I just have to kill a few months overseas before I can get back in the shop and make some sparks again. Need the dimensions so I can put some ideas down in Bend Tech. I’ll get actual measurements off my truck when I get home, just wanted something close enough to work with for now.

 

I can get some measurements for you when I'm home later today.

 

Much appreciated.

 

I’m a visual person..hope this helps. Really interested in seeing the finished product.
