Bedmats, Bedliners for 73-87 SWB
 
What are the current options? I see Brothers has one that is really pricey:

Any plastic drop-in bedliners still made for the SWB trucks?

Do you have a Les Schwab near you ?

They have thick precut rubber mats for our trucks for around $110

The are heavy and don't wrinkle .

I can't live without one and have put one in every truck I own

Yes, I do. Should I just go in there and ask and hope the counter monkey knows the part # :sumo: ?

I always avoid dealing with the locals whenever possible.

They usually know out in the alignment center . Tell them you want the precut ( thick ) horse matt style . I think it's at least a half inch thick

I have them in my 88 crew , 90 crew , 92 dodge Cummins , and my 2016 Silverado

I can get a pic if you like

Well the 73-87 short bed mats have been discontinued for years. Unless it's something that they custom cut while I wait, I don't think they'll have it.

I put a carpet liner in mine, but I don't ever put much back there, I have another pickup for that. I like the Bed Rug, but they don't make them for our trucks, but I found this. It's the next best thing to the BedRug.

I bought the rubber mat from LMC for my LWB. It fits great. I think it was $99 plus oversize freight charge.

I've looked at lots of old trucks w/ plastic bedliners--guess what they all had the bed floor paint ground off. All mine get a rubber mat.

I have been looking at this just haven't pursued it yet. Heavy enough not to blow up while driving. May do this. Can get it cut to the desired length.

Spray in under or over the rails depending on your tastes.

My 76 K20 had it over the rails as did my M1008 and my 2000 C2500.

I Just put LineX in my "new" 2005 Silverado 2500HD.

I'ts more expensive than mats or plastic liners but it doesn't hold moisture and rub through the paint... LineX is what I have experience with. It's tough stuff and it's never out of stock or not made anymore.

Unforunately, I really don't like spray-in on a classic. This truck is never gonna be a hauler, just some surfboards and make the odd wheels and tires on the way to the tire shop. :smoke:
