Re: Cheap short bed
Find somewhere you can pick them up in person. There's vendors all over the place. Even a half day drive and back could be worth saving $2-300 in shipping and you can inspect them at pick up, and if damaged ask for a different one, then no shipping damage when you get home
 What is your floor now? Assuming steel? They're not hard at all. I've done two now. Just keep checking it's flat as you go (see metal ruler) The bedsides are a lot harder. I completely understand wanting to go with new side panels. If you can cut down your floor, reuse your tailgate and header panel, you can save a lot of money on that new bed cost (most of that price is the floor).
