Hey guess what i it just so happens that one of my longtime clients owns a slew of ford junk yards. He told me to show up and take whatever I wanted. I could not belive it. I got a white perfect shape stepside bed, the entire bedliner/tailgate liner/2inch hitch (heavy) newer style 3rd brakelight (all red) spare tire/clamp bumper )because they are smaller on the stepside bed/ All Free WOW..... Im a lucky guy. the bed is getting ready for paint match.


Are you sure about the interior, because I was told that the floors are different so that the seats may be slightly different also at the bottom mounting points. Could you shed some light on this. Thks And yes I do have more plans for it. I am getting ready to install the locking mounts in the bed for my 2-road bikes. thats why i was not concerned with space. Thats what i use the truck for. And now I can pull my wave runners . I am going to be replacing the stock rear window with the rear glass/slide window.

If this isn't done, it's pretty much guaranteed to be broken when you get it. I went ahead and bought a alpine cd/player today and have it installed with a mini 6disk cd player installed in glovebox. its nice.
