Thanks. I did a search. There are quite a few posts. Quite doable.

Great idea. Thank you

Thank you all. I will take out the bedboard. Push up and take it out from below. Then push up new bedboard from below and then lay it on top of the C channel. A one piece bedboard will not fit through the door. Millions of screws!

Thank you. So there is no need to remove the screws for the canvas/fabric? Just remove the screws from the bedboard itself? And slide the new bedboard in from below as I think it won't fit through the door?

There is an Eagle nearby that has a bedboard with a crack in it. Needs replacing. I could purchase for a good price. It looks like a lot of screw removal, take out bedboard, apply sealant (3m 4200?) and then re-install. It does not look like it would be too complicated. Thoughts? What should...

Thank you!

I had my 2020 Fleet mounted on a 2009 Tacoma. Despite telling the dealer that it would be on the 2009 (2nd Gen) for a short period of time and it would be mounted on a 3rd Gen Tacoma, the 2020 Fleet needed 3/4" plywood risers to fit on the 3rd Gen. Just add them to the original risers that are...

I have the same latch. Any idea who makes it? I would like a spare before it breaks.

Thank you! It looks like my plan will work out fine.

Anything wrong with this plan: Small (less than 2 cubic feet) freezer. Run Honda 1000 a few hours/day or when necessary to keep the freezer cold AND to make ice for a cooler. Keep meat in the freezer and take out the next days meals the day before and put in the cooler. Reasoning: The Honda...

But the Fleet on the 2nd Gen Tacoma will need some additional height on the floor stringers. About 1 inch? To clear the higher bed walls on the 3rd Gen Tacoma Is that about the right amount to add Stan? One inch?

I have a Fleet shell. It will now be going on a 2021 Tacoma DCLB. The Fleet will be on for 3 months of the year. For the rest of the year I would like a stock ride.

I am thinking about Timbren's and stock suspension - similar to sumo. This will be for a new Tacoma - DCLB. Not much off-road travel if any. Just state and National Parks. Are Timbrens good enough?

What is the most popular or produced FWC model. My observations indicate it would be a Fleet?

I have a new FWC on order. Mid May is delivery date. Any thoughts on what to look for when I pick it up? To save any warranty repairs and a 9 hour drive back to the dealer.

Good to know. Thank you

Did any of you get a NAFTA certificate to indicate that the FWC is built in the USA?

I ordered BFG T/A K02. Thank you

Hi: Thanks for the ideas. That is a great build website. The photos with your rig in the desert are beautiful. Really nice photos. I will eventually end up with a 4wd 6 Cylinder Tacoma when this truck wears out. But it does not seem to be wearing out; still solid. I should say that this is a...

No off-road use. I have searched the forum and very few people post about a FWC on a 2wd Tacoma. Fleet shell, few options - about 850 pounds. Tacoma: payload rating of 1290 pounds. I will add Timbrens or Firestone Air Bags. Current size tires are 215/70/R15 load range 98 or 1653 pounds...

Thanks for your replies. This will be a lot easier than I thought. I will be joining the FWC owner's club very soon.

Reviving this thread with a few questions: Anyone imported a FWC recently? In the last year or so? If I purchase a new FWC in the USA, it looks like the Transport Canada does not get involved because the FWC is not a vehicle? Transport Canada calls the FWC a "Slide in Camper" Is that assumption...
