    there’s a metal sleeve in the bed so it doesn’t crush the composite. I had my bed come loose even though the bolts were tight. With the off-roading vibrations the metal frame grinds down the composite and it becomes loose. That metal shim doesn’t allow for the bolt to be tightened anymore… Toyota Ground down the shim and wayyy over tightened the bolts.
