Who was the gentleman here whom shared their flatbed build on a Tacoma a few years ago?

Ramball36 builds them and I’m pretty sure he’s shared more than one around here.

Wow! Nice work!

Did this bed require air bags due to the extra weight?

He had an adjustable sumo spring he added on there. It worked really well

What did you coat the bed with ? Is it an industrial finish so it won’t flake?

That looks awesome! Much better than all the garage rigs done for welding trucks running around. That’s got a much better look. Great work
