Previous work = Disaster. Bed Help.

844 Views 9 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  DoMDrty
My bedsides are shot. Because I have no lip, the sides are cracking. The truck is my daily. Here's my dilemma. I want a quadra steer bed. Where can I get the sides from? I searched GMPartsDirect, and found nothing. Any help? (and yes this will be posted on other boards, lol):flame:

unless you can find one at a junkyard (unlikely) or at one of those places that does flatbed conversions for work trucks... you might have to end up going to the dealership

or you could go to a auto body shop with maybe a VIN from a quadrasteer truck and have them get the besides
I'll give the stealerships a buzz tomorrow. Hopefully its not as bad as I think.
why dont you just weld up the cracks and get the bedside supported by welding some 16 gauge along your inner fender lip...btw im going through the same thing but only my right side has 2 cracks so it can be fixed

i still need to get mine fixed, i need to quit being lazy before it gets to bad
Just call the dealership for the PN then go to GMPD, thats what I did with the HD grille and it magically appeared with the PN
This is what my 99-04 parts catalog has...

Sheet Metal Fleetside 1500, 2500 Metal Med w/4WS
Panel, Outer Side
L - 15165438
R - 15165439

Amazon (of all sites:think:) was the only site I could find with a picture. Bill @ P&G Chevrolet is very helpful with locating part numbers.

damn its amlost like a pattern with bedsides craking...hmmmmmm:hmm:
If I gotta repaint the bed, due to removal of the bowed out sides, and welding in strength, I'll just cut the bull shit and get it modded. Yeah, I know its plastic. Thats good. They'll flex a bit. I called the stealership today, the sides are $855 each, and the entire bed, minus the tailgate is $4600.


Looks like I needa do more research. QS4 bed, or Dually. One way or another, I will have a fat bed.

Thats why when you roll the fenders you dont make slits in the lip....
