My truck bed is really starting to rust out.........well the whole truck has got some rust, but what I am wondering is what everyone else has done to their truck. Any tips on their trucks?
You can get individual bed side/corner, under the tail light...patch panels, or complete bed sides $$$$. Install a flat bed, locate a complete replacement bed off the Craigslist. Cut out the rust, weld in mew metal, skim coat and paint it.
Ask your state FTE chapter if anyone has a parts trucks?
Most sponsors at the top of this forum sale patch panels.
A front fender has the same curve/lip as a bed side. Any JY in your area?
Fix the rust with patch panels or new metal. And then shoot it with a camouflage paint scheme... it's very forgiving and other people tend to park their vehicles elsewhere.
Put a "beware of dog" sign on your front gate, an NRA sticker on the front door's glazing, and door-to-door solicitors tend not to ring your doorbell either.
