Re: 67-72 and 73-87 beds

i used to have a square body plastic drop in bedliner in my longhorn when the wooden floor was missing. I was amazed at how it almost fit properly. I suspect the mat would be very close, maybe a couple trimme edges. If it is a daily driver or a beater, or a work truck, then trimmed edges won't matter. If it is a pretty truck, you might not be able to get away with it.

Re: 67-72 and 73-87 beds

it's not a show truck.. someday it'll be a 10 footer... but for now, as I use it daily.. I'd
like to use the bed without killing the work that I'll do on the bed..
thanks.. mod'n the mat alittle is fine by me..
but if the wells where off(wheel base) it really look odd..
note to self, add a tape measure to the junkyard crawl tool box
thanks

Re: 67-72 and 73-87 beds

when I first purchased my 70 C10 it came with a 77 step side bed on it and it looked to fit perfect and alot of people thought it belonged with that bed on it. so those wheel wells just maybe in the right spot. least they looked that way to me.
