thecodemonk Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Nice! How do you like the bedsides so far? I keep hearing mixed reviews and always wondered how well they fit up and feel for wheeling. (There's lots of trees where I tend to wheel, so I've always been nervous about that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1988gecko Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 I like them, I completely cut the old sheet metal out and then installed them, so they fit pretty good, I would not recommend putting them on on top of factory bedside. I live in the middle of Wisconsin so all it is is trees around here, you just have to be cautious with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think it would be worth reinforcing with a but of steel tubing underneath or nah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I wouldn’t since the fiberglass is still going to break if you ever rubbed up against something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
