    Appears that Cali Raised is only one that makes it for long bed access cab 3rd gen Tacomas?? $269 is harsh...found it for $249 at least one questionable reseller.

    Anyone?

    I think the other guy is confused as I am. Your post title says front bed. Which would suggest that the cab side option would suit your need. But, your reply seems to indicate you meant the sides?

    If so, I would highly recommend AOD Fabrication. I purchased the CaliRaised ones awhile ago and it was disappointing to find out that their mounting points lined up exactly with my hard shell clamp points. So "convenient", almost like they meant to do it. I tried grinding theirs down but it was never just right. Ended up recently getting driver side ones from AOD. They put more thought into their product and have a mounting system that can be moved along the rail. If you visit both sites, the pictures show the difference. I got the driver side for 180 ish shipped.

    No, the details from that webpage were for their front bed panel. This is the problem, I'm seeing several manufacturers of front bed molle panels, but they all say fits short bed only. These are not the side panels, they are really the front ones. I think it has to do with where Toyota put the bolt holes in the bottom of the bed. Apparently the long bed bolt holes are in a different place than the short bed ones...?

    I don't want to take a chance and order the wrong one and have to pay a return fee plus shipping, so I can only go by what the retailer's webpages say. So go ahead and click on the rough country link he posted above, and then *scroll down* to read more about them and see that they indeed say, for the front bed panel, that it is only for the short bed Tacomas.

    Cali Raised, Rough Country, and Victory 4x4 all make bed front molle panels. Probably a couple others too.

    Whether a manufacturer chooses to capitalize on the extra side space longbeds have up front seems 50/50.

    I have the caliraised one for my access cab. It’s neat and useful at times but I don’t use it as much as I thought I would. Honestly, if the right buyer came along I would sell it.
