If you’ve spent any time on the washboard FSRs around Stave Lake you know that a Toyota Tacoma is built for adventure. However, there’s a known issue for the 2nd and 3rd Gen Tacomas: the composite bed. When you start adding the weight of a heavy bed rack, a rooftop tent, or even a full load of firewood, the rear bed sides can begin to splay or pull apart over time. This leads to misaligned tailgates, rattles, and eventually, structural cracking that is nearly impossible to repair on a composite bed.

The Cali Raised LED Bed Channel Supports (aka bed stiffeners) are the definitive solution to this problem. By tying the bed floor to the vertical bed sides at the most vulnerable point at the rear tailgate pillars, these brackets reinforce your truck's structure, ensuring your bed stays square no matter how much gear you stack on top.

Key Features

• Structural Rigidity: Prevents the common bed splay caused by heavy camper shells, rooftop tents, and high-speed off-road vibrations.
• Integrated Tie-Down Points: Each bracket features additional holes to provide multiple secure anchor points for ratchets or bungee cords, making gear management easier.
• Maximum Bed Utility: The minimalist, low-profile design ensures you can still slide a standard 48" pallet or sheets of plywood into the bed without interference.
• Corrosion Resistance: Finished in a durable, black semi-gloss mini-texture powder coat to withstand rain and road salt.
• Compatible with Accessories: Engineered to work seamlessly with DECKED drawer systems, most tonneau covers, and camper shells.

What’s Included

• (1) Driver Side Bed Channel Support
• (1) Passenger Side Bed Channel Support
• All necessary zinc-coated mounting hardware
• The peace of mind that your bed isn’t slowly pulling itself apart

Pro Tip: While these are designed for structural support, they are also the perfect mounting spot for small accessories. Off roaders often use the pre-drilled holes on these stiffeners to mount whip flags, CB antennas, or even small LED pods for rear chase lighting.
