I don't know how to answer, I don't have bed bounce and I have a tow package.

Then you dont apply. I am trying to see if the majority of people who have seen the bed bounce also have the tow package.

I have a feeling the people who are experiencing this have the tow package (stiffer rear springs). I don't think the TRD package is a factor.

From everything I have seen published, there are NO suspension changes on Tundra's with or without tow pkg. The only thing I would even think the tow pkg might alter is the fact that the hitch ties the last 30" or so of the frame rails together.

in fact this is a good question because if you look at the bouncy video you will see that the bed has a certain flex in it, left, right, left, right. If you have a tow package the bed will be stiffer and don't flex that much. So a tow package stiffens the bed and the truck will be more bouncy bud wil have less flex.

Yes, but to see results of the poll you have to vote! This will make your data worthless.

yes it's a kingsize posture-pedic

Indeed, everyone needs to know that the tow packae has nothing to do with the rear spring rate. All Tundras have the same rear springs. The tow package provides 4.30 gears, trailer lighting harness and frame mounted Class II hitch.
TRD package adds stiffer Shocks.... possible culprit.
Mine is a non TRD with all the tow stuff..... No bed bounce experienced yet but I am still under 500 miles.

apparently you missed the 'view poll results' link on the right side of the box containing the poll?

i think its going to be misleading because im willing to bet the vast majority of the tundras out there have the tow package...so of course the owners who think they have bed bounce will be tow package owners as well.
