    Hi all. I am looking for advice on the best way to attach the angle strips to the bed sides. The old ones were rusted too bad to save.
    Thanks,
    Steve:D

    They can be spot welded if your using stell but if your using stainless or polished stainless i would suggest bolting them on.

    Sorry guys/gals I'm no longer 58 chevy, I'm back to tech1, my account is missing some how??

    IIRC Chevy Duty used to sell the most excellent bed rebuilding booklet.....

    I think tack welding every 3-4" is going to be the plan. Thanks for the advice.
