Re: bent headbord
Think he means the front bed panel. I'd replace it with a new one. They're only about $100-$150

Re: bent headbord
Makes sense Frizzle. I agree, easier to replace it than repair it.

Re: bent headbord
Mines exactly the same they get shunted by heavy loads over the years which bends the panel in toward the back of the cab leaving it looking curved...I thought I would take mine off one day lay it out on a level peice of ground and run over it in the truck....that should sort it, or kill it and leave it looking like road kill

Re: bent headbord
maybe he is talking about girlfriends? I've never bent one, but dinged a few up in my day.
