If you look at the body line by the molding they don't match between the cab and box

You can see that they are compressed more than they should be because the body lines on the back of the cab are lower than on the bed

If you look at the body line by the molding they don't match between the cab and box

I got you I should look at mine a lil more and see. I know mine a weather cracked pretty good and I would rather do them while I do my BL but don't know if I can swing another 100 bucks right now

You can get them for $76 at JC Whitney. I did mine when I put the BL on

Ya if I hadn't got a Z71, I could have gotten a nice 2wd for about 3-3500....

Some of the Z71 I looked at were really rough an priced higher than what I gave for mine :crazy:
