Question Replacement long bed sides?

ok,
So I know that there is a vendor on here that sells them, isn't he from New Jersey or something? Who is it, and where is his contact info as I would like to purchase some from him?
Thanks All,
Army

Re: Replacement long bed sides?

My dad has some brand new nos longbed bed sides. He bought them in the 70's or 80's brand new. Still have factory primer, no rust whatsoever.

Re: Replacement long bed sides?

I think they do sell them now, but why not save some money and just buy a complete bed down here in NM.

that's what i wonder. it kinda baffles me them reproducing the long sides when good ones can be found. around here longs are a dime a dozen. i realize that in some parts they aren't, but for what two repop sides would cost i can almost guarantee you that you could find a good used one and have it shipped.

Re: Replacement long bed sides?

It would cost at least 1500 bucks to ship a bed here. You can find a salvagable bed here where I am but they are getting much harder to find. In the rust belt they are non existant. I'd buy a set new if available before I'd buy used.

Re: Replacement long bed sides?

Long Bed sides are now available manufactured in china. They have been out for several months---as have the long bed floors. Not quite the weight or strength of original but probably quite acceptable. For those who think there is no need---you only know what you see in your area. Most of the east coast and the central northern states have a high demand due to overzelous patina---RUST!!
Try any board vendor--they either have or will have the repopped lWB bedsides. Huck
