You may want to get some nylon or teflon washers. The least brittle of the two.

I was thinking of getting a cutting board and making pucks out of it with a hole saw.
I repurposed some old pallets and made a table top that actually came out well! I also had the remnents of an old ez up the i cut up and welded to make a couple brackets to hang off the side of the flatbed.
Great idea on the brackets. I always like the simple and obvious solution.
you might give this some thought @Dave
Thanks to my good friends at ARB the Tacoma will be rocking a set of the new BP-51's. The adjustability of these badboys should help out a lot with keeping all the added weight under control!
Thanks! The long wait will soon be over. We are driving up to Denver this weekend to get the camper installed next Monday.
first impressions of the BP-51's are great! But the real test will be next week.
The stone guards are nice, however I am going to have to figure out a way to keep them in place. When I went through deep water they popped off. Since they there such a pain to put on i was not expecting them to come off so easily.
Here are the specs for the Hilux leafs EL091R that I ordered for the Tacoma.

A few photos of the leafs installed. These are much more robust than the tacoma dakars they replaced. The long wait will soon be over. We hit the road today and will be at rocky mountain four wheel camper in Denver by Monday for the installation of our Swift.
Well the big day is almost here and it only took us 1,800 miles! There have been a few hiccups with the dealer but hopefully it's all smoothed out. We got to Arvada wich is just out side of Denver Colorado rhis afternoon. So now it's time to catch up on sleep in the hotel before our 0800 instal tomorrow.
Not really any change, it's about the same weight as the stock bed it replaced. I will get some more pics today when the FWC is put on. So you have a build page for your Tacoma and FWC?
@Topher ,, those leaf packs look great,, how much change in ride height with the empty flatbed?,,
More pics ,,,,,,,,

Did you order the Hi Lux springs through ARB USA?
I ordered them through main line overland. They are an outstanding company with great customer service!
