I have my swb bed in need of new driver side sheet metal. I wrecked it, it is dented in front back, rust etc. etc. Te rest is fairly good. No rust on other side and pretty darn straight.
I have the new steel... dont know if I want to tackle this job my self. So I am thinking about paying to get r done??
My question is anyone tried the work? Am I getting into more than I want to do? I saw a couple trucks on CL with claims of good beds rust free anywhere from 500 to 1200. Looking for thoughts and advice.
Thanks
swb bed fix or find another
