fleet side wheel tubs

Can someone post a picture a set of fleet side wheel tubs that are not on the truck. I am looking to see how they attach to the bed side and what that edge looks like.

These are widened 5-3/4", but the flange that attaches to the bedside is stock.

Re: fleet side wheel tubs

ok great thanks. So it looks like I could us fleet side wheel tubs for my step side if I wanted to tub it. If I cut off that lip I could bolt it to the inside of my step side.

Re: fleet side wheel tubs

Yes, many people have used the fleetside wheel tubs to accommodate wider wheel/tire combos in a step side bed. You can either trim the locating lip, or cut the opening to mirror the tub mount. These are mine just painted...also widened.
