Default Got rust ...cant find bed

Looking to buy a new bed and tailgate for my rusty 2003 and I cannot find a new or used one anywhere .

Does anyone have an outlet ?

Located in north central Illinois and I am puking about this cancer that just keeps growing.

Please help

I feel your pain about the rust! But I got lucky and found a bed off an 05' for $900. Looks pretty good. Just had a friend of mine paint to match and replaced those sucky cqb corners also. Just try all the junk yards around your area. You might have to take a road trip to find one.

Why can't you keep wheel bearings on it? Oversized tires? Are you tourqing the axle nut to 185 ftlbs?
