@@yusufrimawi982 you don't know how much it helped I was looking at a nice Ford Ranger, it is at Copart only thing wrong with it is a busted left fender, and I can't afford a Body Shop and I need something economical on gas, luckily the truck is a standard White and there's many used ones around here that are wrecked, again I want to thank you for the video I really can't take you how much it helped me I'm 63 years old, and you made it understandable simple and convenient young man I appreciate you very much God bless you young man

For anyone who has to do this in the future. Remove the 4 bolts holding the bed to the frame and you'll have a few inches of wiggle room, without impeding the fuel pipe to get to those bolts in between the bed and the cab

It's funny, you'd think the fiberglass would be for weight savings but it's heavier than the regular bed which is bigger... Thanks for the info btw!

@dylangreen8679 2 жыл бұрын

not for weight savings its for cost savings. fiberglass typically cheaper and easier for the assembly line to slap on.

I was wondering if this was the same for the non stepside steel version. I have a lot of damage on one side but the other side is mint and was hoping to not replace whole bed.

@xavierpaige1132 2 жыл бұрын

same here

Sorry been a crazy year. Not sure if the non stepside is fiberglass or not

@scottjackson1636 Жыл бұрын

I have the same problem. It's definitely steel on the 2003 non step side. I guess I will go out and pull bolts and see if it comes off.

Do you know if the inside bed dimensions for the flareside is the same as the regular style bed, dimensional wise.

@yusufrimawi982 2 жыл бұрын

I don't know. I think the flairside came in the shortest bed size.

Is there anyway to push the fiberglass bed side out wards because I hit that and it push the bedside in wards in a way that make the tailgate unusable.

@yusufrimawi982 3 жыл бұрын

Fiberglass isn't really malleable like metal. You can try hitting it with a hammer but once it breaks you have to repair it.

That zip tie idea is great. I’ve broken 2 universal joints already. Ever thought about making it a flat bed? Or different bed?

@yusufrimawi982 4 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Electrical tape works as well! I needed more angle so I went with the zip tie. I was thinking of switching up the bed but I love the stepside so much! It's really unique to have the stepside with a regular cab, 5 speed, and rwd. If I ever get a diesel I'd make a custom flatbed for it.

I totally disagree with your praise of the fiberglass. IMO its a sh88t design and I also hate the way the bed top corners no longer have hole throughs for if you wanted to stick in a 2x4 and screw in some plywood to them to increase the bed height for hauling yard waste etc. The fiberglass is about as lame as driver seat covers, bed covers, or spray on bed liner.
