Just curious as to how many people have cut the back lower part of there bed. Im looking to get a little better departure angle but dont wanna bob it since my quad fits in the bed perfectly as it is. I tried searching but couldnt find anything. Post some pics if you got any.

Heres some pics I found of Scuba's Tacoma where he cut his.

It's called "bobbing" a bed.


Wabbit's got a pretty comprehensive guide to bobbing a bed:

Hope that helps!

He said he didn't want to bob the bed.

No hes talking about just the lower portion not sectioning the length of the bed.

My bed was chopped off on the bottom rear quarter panel too.

In the link above.

Yeah I was actually just looking at that thread from wabbit last night. Its a pretty good write up but I just cant bob my bed at all due to I gotta transport my ATV around

since you posted a pic of Scuba's Taco I guess a 1st Gen Will fly-
took out about 5" on mine:



garage is a mess but you can get the idea..
biggest thing is getting a low profile tube bummer or something back there..a stock bumper or hitch hanger down negates any benefit of trimmer...my Marlin bumper is off for now while I was doing some fiberglass work...

but with the quad in the back is that in the bed only or with tailgate down? if its bead only u could shorten it up a little and just drop the tail gate and get one of those bed extenders gates for when the quad is in the bed. just an idea.

drmix

Yeah thats with the tailgate up and closed. I was thinking about getting a bed extender but would rather just have the tailgate closed

That truck is a piece of crap!

did mine couple months after i bought it.

drmix

How much of a difference did it make?

yotarover

well backing up on the rail is fun now. going up and down hills no crunch noise best part about it everybody else that has a stock bed has gotten the crap beat out of them and wonder why i dont

drmix

Do you have any more pics of how your rear bumper is mounted?

yotarover

same way the factory one is. it's just a huge heavy rec tube with channel welded onto it. and pushed into the frame. bolted and tacked. i towed a 35k lb camper around the yard with it

yoterr

i have to tow my 4wheeler with the tailgate down n my shortbed dodge...cuz its got a toolbox..but it isnt that bad just throw a strap on it and its good..

yotarover

it's nothing special but it's done more than it's share of getting beat *i ran it just like this with no bed, no lift and 33x12.50's and no flex completely stock
