Fleetside long box
Anyone know of anybody who may be stamping 8 foot outer bedsides? You can buy short box sides from almost any place reasonably. Why not log box?

Because none of the aftermarket have come to the realization that size really does matter.
![]() Actually the short fleet is more popular than the long bed and the value is greater. If the value of the completed project is greater, the demand for the bedsides will be greater, because people will be willing to spend more money on it. or... Supply and demand...not enough demand to warrant tooling up a production line to stamp them. |

I just looked and didn't see em. But I do remember seeing them listed there at one time. Guess they weren't a hot seller?

I believe it was Chevy Duty that was selling them. They were going for $598 a side if I remember correctly. I just looked as well but couldnt seem to locate them.

I just sent an email to chevy duty asking about the longbed fleet sides. If I hear back from them I will leave a post about what they say.
