Please help me my truck fell of the trailer coming home and I mangled the lower bedsides. Does anyone know where I can get new metal replacments for the front and back lower bedsides? Here is a pic of some of the damage.
Thanks!

Nice trailer lights:elton: You might try the junkyard, I dunno anywhere that sell replacement bed sides for the D50. Ask some body shops.

Its not a JDM I clipped the front and used a rear steer rack. I only use the trailers lights when I drive it and NO I didnt paint it, that paint is awful. I dropped the LT1 in last winter and it runs like a champ now. Here are a couple more pics for those who wanted to see them.

Is that even the factory sheetmetal? Looks more like some custom metalwork. I wouldn't bother with factory metal if that's the case.

Well, there's definitely a lot of work in it. Ram3500Dually should like it, that's the kind of thing he's into :) Personally I don't like it, but to each his own, and I applaud anyone's hard work on something they like, as long as it's not totally hoky.

The truck is definatly different. I have respect for all vehicles even if they are something that I wouldn't drive or build. I just don't understand putting a Cheby engine in a Dodge. I know the LT1 is a decent engine, but I think a fuel injected small block Mopar or a SRT-4 engine would have been a better choice for that truck.

Back to the original ????
If these guys don't have it... I think you will be "Hard-Pressed" to find it else where.
