Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Thanks Nick.
My bedsides have the inner panels made in them. All new aftermarket sides and tubs. I need to buy a headgate for wood and the wood floor and strips still. I'm using an original tailgate though. Thanks for looking!

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I am happy with them. I can tell that they are a little thinner gauge but I'm okay with them. I had an after market tailgate and I will never have another one. It was a lot thinner gauge. if you do happen to find a good bed or bedside they are usually high priced. I don't plan on hauling a lot or working with my truck.( I have two newer ones for that.) So the aftermarket sides are good enough for me. My aftermarket wheel tubs seem to be like original thickness.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I picked a kayak rack that I fabbed up from a ladder rack from my powder coater. I've had him do a few bikes and other things for me. I had him sandblast some parts of my truck. This is his website if any of you are in middle TN or southern KY and need someone to do something for you.

Not sure. I am going to a bicycle show/swap meet this Sat. http://www.ratrodbikes.com/forum/vie...hp?f=5&t=58432

Yard work too, so I may not get to do anything on it. We'll see. Do you have yours back yet?
