I like smooth beds like that but it'll show dings/scratches easily in no time compared to a diamondplated bed.

Seems like murderously slippery, but at that price and with a camper on it a lot, grip tape is cheap!
hope it's right length & width!

This looks decent https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/293327029139395/?ref=saved&referral_code=null. Maybe a little taller than I wanted but price is right.

I asked for exact dimensions, I'm guessing OBS dodge is a bit narrower than mine.

800 miles thurs-sun.  I’m so happy that rattle is gone.  Noticed that drivers side sway bar link bushings are all shredded.  It was replaced when I bought it.

weird. mine had a bent rear swaybar link when I bought it 110,000 miles ago. I just straightened it. the other side is real near the exhaust stream and it's still solid.

Cheap replacement or another issue?  It was broken right off when I bought it, I don’t remember exactly how.

chance it was overtightened?


I'm also guessing by color that is poly and not rubber. poly isn't a good fit for that application IMO, asking too much deformation with that link style.
