got this truck with a weird bed. its a 88 v6 truck. the at first I though it was a 2wd bed but then I realized it has 4x4 fender flares. then I thought it was a 1st gen bed, but 1st gen flares are more round

any ideas?

 

Is it fiberglass or steal. You can purchase those if its fiberglass however if its steel then I believe they only came from trucks outside of the US border. However it's a factory 84-88 bed.

My favorite style bed

We're u located? Wanna sell it?

 

its a metal bed. it even had fender flares. looks like they were factory by the oval holes punched in the bed.

im in seattle . I might be interested in selling it

 

Washington is tooooo far for me to try to buy it lol. I'm in WV bud. I have seen that same design bed several times here on YT although they were fiberglass. I'm not sure but I believe slacker/ precision4x4 makes them. May be another company out there as well. Like I said tho I believe they only came on trucks that were shipped to other countries. Kinda makes sense. Your in WA. Could be a Canadian yota brought down to US

 

Haha ya a bit far. The trim On the bed matches the body trim makes me think it is the original bed. If it was Canadian wouldn't the speedo be in km? The truck also has almost every option but a sunroof which I haven't seen. I kinda want to figure out where this thing came from

 

If Canadian it would had been however the instrument cluster is a very quick and easy swap. Take down the vin number and try to do a vehicle history report. Some sites do then for free.

 

According to car fax my trucked showed up in the u.s in 95. Another site said it was assembled in Japan. Not sure if that means it was from Japan or if they just built all of them in Japan

 

Thats a canadian bed. Us ordered the trucks with not bed and installed one that was made in california which had no lip on the top. They did this to meet us tarif requirements for na content. No such issue in Canada sp they came with beds from japan.

 

I wonder if the truck is from Canada since I found no records before 95

 

I'd bet it is...... I'd say it crossed borders in 1995 that's when the DMV got wind of it.

 

same bed I got on my 88 2wd. I love the lip. it makes for easier tie downs....now I need to find a blue one since it got backed into the other day....wish me luck

 

Looks like a Toyota Hilux to me.

 

It is a Japanese bed and 84 Toyota is quite right. Those lipped beds were shipped world wide, middle east , Africa, Canada, etc. Only the US trucks got the shaved beds. I prefer the USA look and had a southern bed on my '86 Both bed styles rot like crazy..
