What is your set up for keeping weight over the rear axle? I'm trying to come up with a way to keep weight over the rear axle and keep the bed usable. Something low profile and secure in case I'm in an accident. I just took out my sand bags (which weren't tied down, I had a 2x4 frame that kept it in place...) and I forgot how bad it bounces around with no weight.
 
there is a thing u can buy online and u fill it with sand and it is mostly flat but it is built to last so u can stack stuff on top of it u can slide heavy fruniture over it so it is trally durable
 
I like the idea of a filled liner...I have used several things but one of the best things is 25 lb weights...they can be easily secured with rope or even a barbell...didn't use anything this year other than snow...and I load stuff in the bed all the time...just shovel out what you don't need to make room...shovel it back in if you need some traction...

Can you direct me to a brand or a place that sells this?
 
yup that is one of them^^^^ those work great to idk where i saw the ones with sand but they are pretty much the same
 
Looks great! I think I'm going to go with the 300lb model.
 
I used 100 lb suit case weights from one our tractors in my old 2wd regular cab. The super cab seems to handle perfect with no weights though.
