They are available through the aftermarket now as mentioned - even for the super and crew cabs. With all the bending, cutting and messaging that's required on them though (at least with my experiences), I've started using pieces from old beds recently (for free). There are lot's of rotten beds in the junkyards. Usually the beds around here have rotten wheel wells and rear sections, but the fronts are still good. I just cut along the front/lower portion of the beds (usually this is still solid metal) and the body lines match perfectly to the cab corners. Cut out a bigger section than needed, then trim and tweak as needed. Tack it and glass it from there.
I got my cab corners from LMC. They fit well. Just make sure and drill some drainage holes into the inner lower piece of metal behind the cab corners. There weren't any in mine and Ford had put sealer around the bottom of the cab corners also. They were chocked full of crud that had no place to go and no way to get to it. And coat the backsides well also. I prefer to glue in cab corners followed by rivets. It bothers me to weld a blind area. No way to completely paint the spots that the welding burns off. And get the tall cab corners. That keeps your joint up high away from any moisture down bottom.
