Pro Street Stepside help...

I bought a pro street stepside this weekend and i need some help fixing the inside of the bed. Already Have a new fuel cell on the way and I was thinking of using diamond plate for the floor but what i need help with is the inside wheel wells. What have you all done for them or what does anyone suggest? Pics greatly appreciated.

LMC carries the rear wheel housings. You may need to modify them to your needs. Hope this helps.

I've heard of people grafting tubs together to make one. Maybe you could do something like that.

Summit or Jegs sells the universal wheel tubs, you can use those and cut them down to fit then weld or rivet them in place.

Not a step, but here's my 40" long aluminum Competition Engineering tubs.




My 31" tall street tires are a perfect fit between the tubs.


Can you share any info and more pics of your truck?

Thats Nice right there. Ive done a bunch of pondering and think what im going to do is build a frame out of 1x square tubing and diamond plate the whole thing. This will tie the front and rear of the bed together with something other than the flimsy bed sides. New Fuel cell should be here next week so well be Rollin by the weekend. I'm going to post a build thread on it. Not that there's much to build on it. Its mostly done. LOL
