?Who makes fiberglass Dodge step side truck beds?
 
I just wanted to ask this to see if anyone on here knows of a company that makes these. I am wanting to check on prices and research on them for my 96 Dodge Ram. I'm thinking of giveing it a modern Warlock look but Dodge quite makeing stepsides. I don't want to use a older stepside or a Chevy or Ford Stepside. I would think there would be a custom bed company out there that builds these for the Dodges. Well any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

This topic has come up before. Nobody was ever able to find one as far as I know. The only thing that was ever found was a picture of a Ram with a Chevy stepside on it. I attached them below. It doesn't look bad at all in my opinion.

Here are some more pics for you. Notice that the red one says RamSide on the side, which I read used a 1996 Chevrolet sportside box. Not sure who made them though, but there was supposedly more then one. I also read that a company called ProGlass Finish made stepside beds for Rams awhile back. Also, I read about a guy who was going to make one by taking a bed from a Ram dually and cutting out the inside to make it narrower. You could always try that.

Thanks guys I love that red one at the bottom thats the look I'm going for. It looks mean as hell I wonder if its a chevy bed also. My biggest concern would be finding ground effects with that kind of change a roll pan and airdam would be easy but how would you go about side skirts beings its a Ram cab and a chevy stepside bed I guess I would have to order one of each if they make them.

Not yet....
 
We're not fully finished, the posts days it's not done, but having a step is not what makes a step side. The fact of the bed being narrowed and how it steps in from the can is what makes it! This is a modern version as a tribute to the rarest truck ever made! The 78 midnight express! Being built in a modern version! With the other mods that are planned this will really being this legend back with a modern twist! You can follow us on Facebook, instagram and twitter. After our reviel we will be building only in a limited number!

[QUOTE=5.9_MAGNUM_POWER;3372159]There is a whole “Ramside” truck for sale by Champaign IllinoisThe ram sides are just a Chevy bed with Dodge lights graphed in the bed! Was not appealing when they came out, they didn't go very far. The midnight has never been brought back in a modern version till now! The full history is on out Facebook page.

If it isn't the steps that make it a "Step" side..... why would they call it a step side?

FiberX I think the company is called used to make the Step side panels for our trucks (they still make wider fenders and bed panels) give them a call and see if they still have the molds. If you got $$$ to spend they will make you a custom mold for about $1500 plus the cost of the bed sides
