Sheet metal replacement panels

I have been looking around for some good quality front cab mounts and floor material. Has anyone used Flashback F100? Their cab mount look like what I want. US made and not cheap. Also looks like they salvage other sheet metal parts. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Brian

Brian1971f100 i would not use LMC cheap offshore made stuff. if you can find a junkyard and get them to cutout the bed floor or if its not much money just buy the whole bed. i do not know of anyone who has used Flashback.the local jy that i use the Ford trucks are pretty well picked clean but the chevy stuff just sits there.

I got this from the Tabco website, "TABCO uses the same gauge steel used in the original parts to create a perfect match".

I'd check our sponsors first. The good front cab mounts will be in the $80 range. The cheaper ones are junk.

I like the looks of that cab mount Brian. On the bed floor, count the number of ribs. See if they are the correct number. I remember a while ago someone posted on here that they had bought a replacement bed floor from someone. I don't remember what company. And he was disappointed because the ribs didn't line up.

I checked out DC and Tabco for a RH replacement floor pan. DC was 37" X 24.5" wide Cost was $59.99, Shipping was $9.99= $69.94.
Tabco 37" X 29W was $40.95, shipping was (To WA) $30.40= $71.35. Thicker and more metal for $1.41 more.
