Bed Bounce Fix?

What have you guys replaced for the bed bounce at highway speeds issue?

 

I've never heard of this. What exactly does it do?

 

Nothing is really going to get rid of it completely. It’s mostly just sections of Highway that cause it. The easiest solution is putting weight in the bed. I saw someone made a bracket that’s supposed to help that bolts into the surface of the bed. Some claim that getting different springs in the rear help along with shocks. Some say it’s better with the swaybar some say it isn’t. I think I even saw some claim that getting different shackles can help. There is no real answer other than a combination of things changed on the truck hoping it does something. For me I don’t drive on sections of road that cause it often enough to bother me. I would just put a couple hundred pounds of weight over the rear axle. Try some sandbags.

 

I've heard some simply replaced the bushings and some it went away. Others will surely chime in on this.

I plan on a combination of shackles, shocks, bushings and maybe K37 springs.

I put on new shocks and a sway bar...I can’t say it’s gone but it’s not only much less noticeable I got the advantage of a lot better ride 100% of the time

 

Right now I have a 200lbs of sand bags in the bed. It will help but not get rid of it. I've researched a bit and it seems upgrading the suspension system is the answer.
I've also read that it is caused by binding in the bushings at all the suspension connection points. Could this be part of it also, yes it could be. If your going to change the bushings you may as well change the shocks/coils/springs also IMO. In the end the suspension will be getting changed anyway.

 

So I'm not experiencing that problem because I have about 400-500 lbs of combined weight from the Snugtop + Decked storage. I also have the TRD Swaybar installed.

 

I have updated bed mounts from 2013 models I also have new Billstein shocks and TRD sway bar but in some sections of some highways it can get pretty bad

 

That should do it.

 

Slump busting!!

 

I still get the occasional bed bounce although not as bad. There is a new stretch of concrete on the I-225 near me. At 55 mph it flat out sucks. Now way to really eliminate it completely. Simply changing out rear leaf OEM bushings can help.

 

Drive to a semi truck scale.................

 

"Testing in process of the new Tundra Duelly"

 

I think this mod should help.

 

Would definitely turn heads, especially if it had a diesel..

 

A Tundra duelly diesel? I think I just got a woody

 

Hey now, fellas. This is 2018, were supposed to embrace and celebrate "curvy" ladies now.

 

Does anyone know if 3rd generation is different on those mounts to the 2nd generation

 

Curvy ladies yes. But hail damage and cottage cheese isn't for me.

 

LOL, hail damage. Don't think I've heard that one yet!

 

More like meteorite damage.

 

I've had the same issue with my 2011 RW double cab. Threw a A.R.E. cap on it last spring and it went away. Now it's back and worse. I plan to swap out the front/rear shocks and bushings we'll see if that helps.

 

I think that I read some where that there is a tsb to replace the rear cab mount bushings. I have the bounce too and it really sucks on certain roads/speeds.
