Re: LMC now has the 8ft metal bed
I was interested in this also but for the price of the floor shipped, one could source a complete bed (or truck).

Re: LMC now has the 8ft metal bed
Not very, just like all the other repop metal. I'm selling a rust free/original paint 8' fleet metal floor. Much stronger.

Re: LMC now has the 8ft metal bed
I want that bed floor, but no doubt shipping would be murder. Any ideas?

Re: LMC now has the 8ft metal bed
I have seen some patch panels offered that are 19 gauge instead of 21, are these any better?

Re: LMC now has the 8ft metal bed
The thread title is a bit ambiguous. Are we talking about bed sides or bed floors? Or both?

Re: LMC now has the 8ft metal bed
Does anyone know if these beds can be married with the 6 inch front section of Longhorn to make a Longhorn bed?
