Mods feel free to move this if not in the right place

Was thinking of caging just the bed i.e. Something under rails/bedsides that ties into the bed bolts. The rap is my daily driver and I need to preserve bed space. When I off-road I run pretty hard, large jumps etc and am noticing some bed spread.
I have Tmx stabilizers sitting in the garage but wonder if caging the bed would be better. Or is it even worthwhile to do this just to the bed?

Thoughts?

It is possible to cage just the bed. But I will say the stabilizers help a lot! It keeps them straight. The bedsides only move at the rear where the tail gate is I'd try the stabilezers first then go from there

On big jumps/landings isn't that quite a bit of force on the Tmx setup? Specifically where they attach on the sides. Did you use a backing plate pat?
