fiberglass box sides: any tips on install?
 

I bought some fiberglass box sides for my 92 p/u and I'm ready to make this baby look like new

anyone know if anybody has made a write up on this? or if anyone can point me in the right direction on how to mount them it would be appreciated!

are you talking about bed sides?

Its not too bad, but you'll be busy for a few hours.

I think its easiest if you have a buddy to take the whole bed off, there's a few screws that you have to install on the front side of the bed, which are hard to get to with the cab in the way.

Then you look at the sides of your bed, the inside rail at the top. You'll notice that there are many little spot welds that hold your bedsides on, they look like little circles. You need to drill all of these out to remove your stock bedsides.

Then install the fiberglass bedside, and drill out new mounting holes in the fiberglass if you need to. Note: you will need supports for 2 spots on both sides of the bed. Depending on where you got your glass from, you might not have these parts. They are support arms to reduce flexing and cracking of the glass.
