^ very cool!
Did you make a lip around the inside?
No hinges is pretty sweet. Does it just slide in and
stay put by the tailgate?

Re: Hard bed covers on stepsides?

I attached 1" aluminum angles the lengths of the bed sides with pop rivits.
yes you seen the little tabs I made on the rear piece...they slide under the front piece..than the tail gate keeps it from slide to the rear. Than I used 2 1/4 turn cam locks in the 2 rear corners to lock the cover down to the rails that its sitting on.

Re: Hard bed covers on stepsides?

The only one I can find thats nice is the gaylord lid but it is costly.
I think I'm going to build one.
There is another member who used Lummi to make his??
