    They make some real quality stuff. They are good people. I have been there a couple of times and they take time to take you through the shop and answer any questions. They even let me help my self to slugs that they cut out with there cnc plazma cutter.

    I got my corner pockets from them. Top notch and won't take much to make them look nice.

    Pretty good parts. Side panels can be marginal in terms of stamping quality. I had some that were uneven and not nearly as deep as the originals. But probably best alternative for aftermarket bed parts.

    I bought a complete bed from them years ago for my 40 and it was very nicely made. Good stuff and complete.
     
  11. are they actually stamped? or bead rolled?

    Not sure. When I called to discuss, I got the impression that they are stamped. But I could be wrong. Either way, the point is the bead is not as deep as the original and can be inconsistent.

    I got the bed for my 37 chevy from them and happy with it,dont know if its made from the same thickness of metal as the original but its not going to be hauling anything heavy.

    I saw one of their 34 beds today and it looked like a real nice stamping and was painted a real nice black. Guy said the front panel was warped from stamping but took a little work to keep it flat.

    are there any dealers on here?
    anyone assemble their own box?

    I bought a shortened box for my '34 and several tailgates for various trucks, plus small parts. They treated me well, parts were all first class, delivery as promised. Good folks.
