So this happened today, it's just body damage nothing else. I just don't know if I should get a new box or should I be able to replace the box side? I have heard that if you just replace the box side that it doesn't line up very well, is this true?? Thanks

I am trying to decide the same thing with mine. A buddy backed into a cattle gate with my truck and put a nice hole under the 4x4 decal from the bolt.

If I were you I would get a different bed so that way you don't have any rust. That's just me though, that's what I'm going to do with my truck

Dude I really like the look of your truck. And where'd you get your headliner from?
