Re: Short fleet bed
I bought the OE style with stake pockets , I'm a big fan of original metal but take a look at this , I won't be chasing rusty beds when parts like these are available . To get the deal you have to order thru CARiD .

Re: Short fleet bed
I ordered thru CARiD to buy tri plus bedsides that were delivered by Averitt trucking only to open the box and find Woodall stamped on the inside box ,? This just peaks my assumption that there is one manufacturer placing different names on the same product AUto metal direct ,Tri plus, Woodall, Goodmark . ?
Shipping was only $99.00 way out where I live in the country . They are worth the wait and I'll be ordering another complete 67 short bed tomorrow .! Left and Right 67 short bed OE style , shipped , total $804.00 thru CARiD . Can't beat that with a stick !

Re: Short fleet bed
They look good in the pictures. How is the metal thickness compared to gm? Can't wait to get mine!! It'll be awhile until they're painted. Is it not to run as is or should I epoxy prime them?

Re: Short fleet bed
I don't have a micrometer but I try to get a gauge tomorrow . I'm guessing 20_22 once I check panel to panel alignment and fit I'll break them back down and epoxy prime and block them out before paint .

Re: Short fleet bed
So factoring the back order time... expect a 3 month wait?
It was almost 2 months before you got the ones you already ordered! For the price though, that's still worth the wait.
