We are working on some bed stiffeners for the rear of the bed by the tailgate. We have way too many prototypes going right now and have been absolutely slammed with work but bed stiffeners are one we have started and have progress on.
sweet thank you!Heres a pic of the part numbers on my factory brackets. Just had them available.
good to hear! I know we've talked about it in PM but my bed flexing and my bed rack and rtt shaking got me worried. Do you have a set date for when these will be available? Maybe I can hold off till then!We are working on some bed stiffeners for the rear of the bed by the tailgate.

I’m hoping to have them ready around the end of Februarygood to hear! I know we've talked about it in PM but my bed flexing and my bed rack and rtt shaking got me worried. Do you have a set date for when these will be available? Maybe I can hold off till then!
sounds good! keep me posted! I think I only have one or two events until then so I got some breathing space to work with!I’m hoping to have them ready around the end of February
Perfectsounds good! keep me posted! I think I only have one or two events until then so I got some breathing space to work with!
Not to bring up an old thread, but did we ever get a solution for the stiffeners? I'm currently looking for something as well.Perfect
not that i know of.Not to bring up an old thread, but did we ever get a solution for the stiffeners? I'm currently looking for something as well.
We have built some custom sets. There is flex in the bed especially if you start mounting stuff to the bed sides or offloading hard. The sets that we did all had chips in the paint where the bedside was hitting the tailgate from flex prior to the stiffeners. If there is enough of a need/ desire we would consider doing a production run of these and offering them.not that i know of.
HOWEVER, after looking at the bed in more detail, I THINK our beds don't need those. At the tailgate end of the bed, you can see the curved joints that hold the side and the bottom together instead of the straight type that other trucks have. I THINK those are basically stiffeners or at least designs that prevent the bed from splitting.
on the other hand, SDHQ does have one for TRX but after taking measurements and compared to their design, they wouldn't work with non-TRX models (or, they would require a lot of modification to fit on non-TRX) SDHQ was down to make a set, BUT I'd need to bring the truck to them and it'd be one-off custom and the custom fabrication shop rate applies (which will cost me at least $1k to get it done)
do they clear Decked drawer systems?We have built some custom sets. There is flex in the bed especially if you start mounting stuff to the bed sides or offloading hard.

The ones I made probably would not. I am sure we could do a set that would though. It would probably be tight though.do they clear Decked drawer systems?
hmm i think we shall see how it goes...The ones I made probably would not. I am sure we could do a set that would though. It would probably be tight though.
