Where to buy bed cross rails

[Dirtman]

I know I have seen people on here buy and replace the cross supports for the bottom of the bed. Are they a dealer item? Can't seem to find them for a 93+ bed (or are they the same from 1983 all the way to 2011?). I wanna cut them off and replace them next spring but don't wanna fab them from scratch. I'm soooo lazy.

Not a dealer item. We get them from Dorman.

They should be the same 83-around 09 (whatever year they went to 8 bed bolts). The beds internal structure has been the same that whole time.

Thanks. Guess I'll see how Dorman manages to screw up making peices of sheet metal like they do everything else.

This is where I got confused. My truck has 10 bed bolts. I wasn't sure if they were the same and just use more cross supports or if the supports actually changed.

They may be the same... I don’t know. I’ve never pulled a newer bed and checked.

have you ordered any lately? Or use a substitute part?
I can't find any Ranger listings on the Dorman site.

We haven't done a Ranger in at least 6 months.
