Friends, I was talking with my brother-in-law, who owns an F-150 Raptor, the other day, and he was mentioning that a bunch of the Raptor and Tacoma guys run a bed support brace (see photo). Apparently a three-point brace at the back of the bed is desired because higher speed offroading causes flexing issues with the bed sides and floor. A Google search doesn't turn up anything specific for the Gladiator, so I'm wondering if this is something we should be using. I figure since most Jeeps are used for crawling or maybe because the Gladiator is only a few years old we haven't had these issues yet, but the Mojave is set up as a desert runner so I cannot imagine why this issue wouldn't come up.
