Bed hitting cab on Tacoma?

VolcomTacoma · 08-13-2004, 08:30 PM

Has anyone had problems with the out side edges of the bed hitting the cab from carrying something in the bed, or just from normal use? I know people have had it happen while offroading though.

What years are you talking about?
My 02 has had no such problem.

oh, nevermind... checked out your profile - 98

my truck does, it isnt much, but enough for a rattle at idle., or at stop lights, etc.... it developed or was noticed right after my bidy lift, so the cause is directed to misalignment of the bed to cab or shifting of the alignment of bed to cab

i think its mostly an ext. cab taco thing, Ive jumped my taco and wheeled it pretty hard off-road, and no contact so far

Greetings,
I have a 2001 Ex Cab and it does not rattle from contact between the bed and Cab.

My buddy's '92 ext. cab pickup did that. (although he had 5" suspension lift and used to lift the inside rear tire going around corners all the time.)

To fix it get some rock-sliders. That'll stiffen up the frame a bit.
