Bed alignment bracket questions

">

Simple and cheap fix. Not to overthink it but this has worked well for me with no issues with the side wall at all. Used it for years with a rubber mat. While I agree with a more permanent fix, If you want to call it that, I would like to see my money go to other projects....a custom aluminum alignment bracket can't be cheap and my other concern would be that the front and rear would be slightly elevated without support down the sidewalls of the TC. Even a slight gap could put undue pressure in the middle...it should sit completely flat on a rubber mat IMHO I think it might end up bangging around even worse if your not using a rubber mat over the top of these aluminum brackets. If you were to add two more lengths of material between the front and rear one, that would work with a mat over the top of the now new bolted down frame. Placement of how to affix it to the frame without bolt heads interfering is also a consideration. Try the wood fix first just to see how far your money goes. ..curious what it would cost though...Keep us in the loop.
