Thanks. It looks like it just slides in the stake holes?
Just fishing for ideas for my Tundra

Yeah. Just welded a nut to the side of the posts. Dropped them in the stake holes and bolted through the existing holes in the side of the bed. It is a pretty sturdy set up. Like in the pictures, I went offroading with it loaded.

Me, too. I'm guessing by access cab, you meant double cab. I just got a flier from Toyota yesterday advertising a new '08 DC 4x4 w/5.7L for $23k. I think it was the stripped down version, but still, that's a good deal. So tempting.......

Do it. ha ha. You will love it.

Hey everyone, this is my first post and I actually have been checking out the site for a few months in preparation for the trip my wife and I took cross country. We traveled 5,300 miles. Went from Durham, NC as far west as Grand Canyon, AZ. We did some offroad driving and mountain biking. Anyone that is considering the new Tundra for an expedition vehicle, I highly recommend it. It was probably the most comfortable vehicle I have driven/ridden in (as far as long long drives).

Just some background on the truck:
-4x4 5.7 liter
-Kennesaw Mountain Accessories, Winch Bumper
-XRC10 Winch
-3 Hella Rallye 4000s
-Old Man Emu 2.5" HD suspension
-Viair Onboard Air
-Custom made rock sliders (actually needed these a few times)
-Custom made over the bed rack
-Yakima bike holders and Mega Warrior

Enjoy the pics! Let me know what you think.
Here are some links to the rest of the pics:

That's exactly what I did with mine. I used eyebolts which are large enough to make the rack install a tool free affair. Definitely sturdy, this'll be our third year with this setup carrying our overloaded kit to the woods and beach...

Very nice Tundra you have there! How do you like the Kennesaw front bumper? Great job on the truck!

Thanks. Your setup is actually one I was looking at when I made mine. I actually like yours a lot. The bumper is great. It was a prototype, so I got mine for free, which made it even better.

I am thinking of getting a sticker of this and putting it on my Tundra. What do you think? ha ha
