mounting to truck bed

[dudmleh522]

Hey guys, i am planning to mount a fridge slide out on the bed of the truck.
I was thinking about using a rivnut but I heard these trucks have super thin aluminum so would need to be reinforced from the bottom. What do you guys think?

Yeah. I wouldnt mount anything to the sheet metal on these. You can literally stab through the metal with a screwdriver. Dont ask me how I know that.

There are so decent mounting points you may be able to make brackets for both in the bed and the OEM tie down areas.

I would definitely consider a backing plate if you are just mounting to the bed floor. If you can use the bed bolt locations that would help too.
