Difference was likely shipping weight. I got a quote from them before I built mine and IIRC they quoted shipping weight rather than installed weight. Was that 97lbs per drawer or for the full system, with flaps etc...?

Ah, that could make sense. It was 97lbs for the full system, but not including the optional drawer dividers (maybe 1-2lbs at most depending on personal configuration). I also did not include the weight on the tie down straps or the metal tie down rods which could be another 2lbs?

Hooked up my trailer to my new rig.
You edited it but when i first saw your message you had a message about a converter, just wanted to give you a heads up that if your trailer has brakes they won't work in case you didn't already know that (i assume you do, but for safety i'm calling it out just in case)

That truck is slick looking, and so is your trailer! Time for a new screen name? vegas4runnerguy? vegasjeepand4runnerguy?

No brakes...no worries. And I’ve been vegasjeepguy since /000 so I don’t see that changing. I’ll let my wife think the 4Runner is hers.

How much modifications did you need to do?
I had to trim the upper lip to the shape of my bed/camper, get new plywood to extend the middle platform and because the Tacoma bed is shorter I still have to make covers to plug up holes in the front of the bed. It’s all very minor. For $100 plus $30 for a new sheet of 1/2 inch plywood, I think I made out pretty good. IMG_8301.JPG
