this is for a flareside bed.
where did you get your roll pan?
what brand?
price without paint?


also i would like to know a measurement from the bottom of the tailgate handle to the middle of the license plate.

i want to try and do a custom hidden hitch behind the license plate.. im gonna modify my hitch now anyways just need a measurement.

thanks...

 

Got mine from stylinconcepts.com and it was a Sir Micheals pan never got around to puttin it on and I ended up selling it on Ebay. I believe mine ran me around $169 w/o paint it was mainly so much bcz mine was an all steel pan. I believe u can get rollpans now for our trucks that have the hidden hitch mount built into the pan already.

 

do you know where?

 

just hope nobody rear-ends you, cuz your rear will just crumple with that roll pan. I guess if you got a hitch that will help....

 

in most cases you get rear ended your screwed anyways, they either go under or over the bumper

 

hey.. i wanted to raise this thread from the dead, since i had the same question in mind for my truck!

anyone recommend a certain company over another??? i too would need a hidden hitch with it!

 

i would go with a sir micheal's rollpan, best out there for a splash bed

 

scott do u have any pics?

 

I Painted a roll pan ofr a kid on either here or trs, came out pretty good his was some cheep one, i didnt like it cuz it was real flimsey, if it ws me id look for a metal one or one made out of abs plastic, his was some kind of tpo plastic

Man that truck looks good Scott.

 

forget a roll pan that does no defence agianst the truck get stonger!!!


you get the piont

 

i dont like that at all tho.. id wanna go with a roll pan with the hidden hitch, then possibly get that rear bumper gaurd thing that someone here on the site has (forget who.. it looked pretty cool tho). i figure the steel roll pan, the hitch, and the rear bumper gaurd thing are enough to stand up against.. if i get hit badly enough to get thru all of that, lol, well that's why i have insurrance.. ram away!

 

i didnt mean that bumper i just ment stronger i cant stand roll pans no protection at all a 2 mph crash results in a $2000 bill....

 

i hear ya.. that's why id go with steel if anything.. along with the hidden hitch behind it... together they can with stand some hits

 

ha, well right now, my 01 is sitting low enough that if you hit it, you'll hit the tailgate anyway, and on my 99, i have a hitch under the pan, so you will hit the hitch

 

ok I can answer this question since I have a rollpan and I ran a hitch (hidden hitch) as well. The rollpan was sirmicheals but please keep in mind that it is made using a press at a 90 degree angle, so it will never match the curveture (sp?) of the tailgate. since the tailgate bows out a little bit. Please have it molded in unlike the body shop that did mine after the accident. you CAN mold steel to fiberglass using a special bondo type stuff I forgot the name. the hitch was street scene and I tihnk I paid $149 for it. I think the rollpan was $129. hope this helps.

 

ya but Zachs truck isnt its up there you will see at the meet

 

It is VERY important that you use the correct material (Name=Fusor)when doing this, otherwise you get cracks after very little amoun of time. Here is an article talking about it...
