Default Body replacement 99 laramie 5.2

So i recently bought my 99 laramie with the 5.2L 318. I got it for a steal ($1000) it has no mechanical issues and 165k miles which is why i got it but it does have its fair share of cosmetic damage. The first thing i wanna do is replace the rear panels from the back bumper to the rear door.any suggestions of where to buy and how much of a pain it will be?

im confused, what do you mean panels? what you describe sounds like you mean the bed is messed up? if so then u cant really replace them in parts you much replace the whole bed as a whole.

Lmc does have complete bedsides for both short box and long box as well as patch panels depending on how bad yours is. I've got a 99 1500 laramie aswell and personal opinion better off goin to your local wrecking yard and get another box from them. Lmc last time I checked wanted over $400 cdn per side.
