Description
Reinforce the bed of your truck with these Cali Raised LED bed channel supports for all 2005 to 2023 Tacoma. Composite beds are tough, but if you frequently take your truck off-road or load up the bed rack with heavy equipment, it may crack or fracture over time. Bed channel supports are great for preventing damage. Quality is the name of the game here at Cali Raised LED, which is why we design in-house and laser-cut all our channel supports. As always, it is professionally powder-coated in a durable black semi-gloss mini texture to defend against corrosion. The minimalist design allows for maximum protection without sacrificing valuable bed space. You can still load up a standard pallet or standard plywood sheets! Includes all zinc-coated hardware for installation.

These are very well made and were a breeze to install (check out the installation video courtesy of the manufacturer). They do their job and add functionality with extra tie down points. I’m only giving them four stars however, for two reasons:1. The fasteners provided for attachment are inch / imperial, meaning you have to cross the streams (use both metric and inch tools). They should have sourced / included metric hardware.2. Several of the edges of each part had very sharp edges – if you work in and out of the back of your truck like I do, this can be a concern. I don’t want to have to use a tourniquet after a trip to the hardware store. Cali Raised LED needs to add de-burring to their manufacturing process before sending these to powder coat.Overall I think these are an outstanding product, and a better value (and possibly better design) than bed stiffeners offered by other brands.

Easy install, longest part was waiting for paint to dry on drilled holes. Product is well made and comes with all hardware and install instructions. Makes me feel more secure with the added weight of a roof top tent. Extra tie down points and a place to mount my cb antenna make this product a win, especially for the price

I think there are a great accessory to your Tacoma to the 3rd gen or the second gen especially if you do a lot of off-roading go down to you camp and the future I plan on adding a rack some people add tents that added weight you need your bed to be strong these bed stiff will add strength these keep the sides from flexing out over. Time these beds will start to do that if you put anything heavy on them or in them the composite plastic once it cracks there’s no saving it you’ll have to invest in a new bed which is not cheap can’t say enough good things about this company and these bed stiffeners you also have a lot of tie-down places besides the ones that are already in the bed of your Tacoma.

I have an overland Tacoma setup. These work perfect! Brings me peace of mind that my bed won’t flex or get out of alignment. Really simple instructions only thing is to buy yourself a TORX set of t40 t55 before you install.

These things are phenominally built. rolled steel instead of welded. Clean looking and install is a breeze (yes you need to drill in to your “beloved”, yes you need to remove your brake lights, yes 2 bolts per side are a pain in the butt…) but they installed in about an hour and are rock solid. If you off-road and/or have a roof top tent or weight on your bed rails these are a must! I do not regret buying them.

Great product, I ordered and was sent out by cali raised right away and nicely packaged. Strong build and cheaper and most on the market. I ended up not installing and returning due to the track width of my bed shortening about a foot or more. I’m constantly pushing and pulling things out of the bed and these were a little too obtrusive. How ever I would recommend for those who don’t mind. I ended up paying double for one a little more low profile.

I have to said this is a must have if you add a lot of weight in your tacoma, ill do construction and soon I will add a lumber rack, after looking around i went with this guy’s for the reputation and it’s better to spend few more bucks but you are getting quality in return, product easy to install took me 30 minutes with few tools (you have to drill few holes ) but overall super happy

I have a 2013 tacoma and one day I noticed the bed was separating from the top of the tailgate. I don’t tow anything, I occasionally haul a couple hundred pounds of stuff camping or traveling but nothing crazy.So I never thought I would need this but after I noticed the separation I decided to get these to close the gap… that is not what happened the stiffeners barely closed the gap of at all. But what they did do is stiffen up the feel of the rear end which was actually really surprising. It used to feel almost like there was something slidding around in the bed but now it feels tight.So if you have a gap this won’t fix it if you don’t have a gap this will prevent it but in both cases it’ll keep the bed from feeling like a wet noodle on turns.

Just make sure you get all the tools assembled. Spray WD40 on the bolts before trying to take them off. Take your time, dont strip or break the bolt heads at all costs. I used impact driver and breaker bar, took about 1hr to finish everything. Also seal the fresh drill holes with silicone.

Great product, help solidify both ends of box. You’ll have to drill 4 extra holes (circled in red on pictures), on each side of the rear corners by the taillights. Easy to do after removing taillights assembly.Greatly recommend the product.

I didn’t end up installing these, but here are my observations.1. Doesn’t work with the new Decked system unless you trim the Decked “wingers.”2. The D-ring bolt doesn’t seem long enough. Other bed stiffeners come with a new D-ring bolt.3. I’m not 100% convinced these are necessary.They are quality made pieces though.
