Check your local machine shop. What are you thinking about dipping??? You may not need to.

Not sure where you can get them acid dipped.....
How soild are your bedsides though? If they have any "soft spots" then you may not want to dip because that acid is really strong stuff and if you have any real bad soft spots you will be left with HOLES where that soft rusty metal once was......

Yes I realize it might leave me with holes, but i'd rather get rid of any bad metal, rather than leaving it there...
