Reproduction bed
What kind of reproduction bed sides, bed floor and tailgates are you guys using? All the pictures from vendors look like exactly the same. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Reproduction bed
Mine is a Tri-Plus. It went together fine. A little trimming here an there. Had to make a couple of bolt holes bigger. Nothing major. The bedsides are pretty thin, but so is all aftermarket sheetmetal. I got mine from another boardmember at a good price, otherwise I would have just fixed my factory one.

Re: Reproduction bed
All of the board vendors will tell you the sheet metal is the same thickness as the factory sheetmetal

Re: Reproduction bed
About 1.5 to 2 hours from Hickory. I'm about 20 minutes south of Greensboro.
