I'd check out Tacomaworld. these guys do alot of modding on their trucks. Here's one link: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2nd-gen-brake-upgrade-recommendations.485682/ My Tacoma with a fleet flatbed is at 7,000 lbs with a full tank of gas but otherwise empty. my only mod will be to...

Yes flatbeds definitely are. I took your advice and weighed my piggy. The front axle is 2,860 and the rear is 3,980 lbs with a full tank of gas and recovery gear but no people, propane, water, or food, etc. So to use the Toyo PDF do you divide these weights by two to determine the per tire load?

Great thoughts! Thanks. I also like how you used Velcro to keep the PV stable while leveling the brackets. Only wish the professional installer had done this in the first case.

Cbadbox, Thank you putting out your design. I recently picked up new Fleet camper and had our camper installer put on 2 semiflexible solar panels on the Yakima tracks and are only supported on the sides. With only 500 miles on the camper the panels have deflected 1/2” already. Needless to say...

I second the Steens though being up to 9,000’ be prepared for snow. Alvord lake lies east of the Steens is cool. The hamlet of Frenchglen is cute in a eastern desert sort-of-way

We just purchased a flatbed fleet which is on a 2019 Tacoma and am in the process of adding wider mirrors. Definitely had blind spots. Also have a problem with the main camper power not working...after i drove it home from the dealer 450 miles away.
