I want a bed liner

[Bill89]

Somebody here has to know where I can get a bed liner that doesn't cost and arm and a leg.  I called Chevy and my cost is $250.  I just don't want to spend that much.  So help me out guys.

[RyanbabZ71]

check local places.  A local parts place by me always has em on sale for like $149.99

Ryan is right.  A drop in plastic liner shouldn't cost more than $100-$150 dollars.

 

Personally I would get an "under-the-rail" liner, but that is just my opinion.

If I didn't have a step side I would get this one.  But my truck is black so it shouldn't look to bad.  Besides, anything would look better than 13 years on carrying things in the bed.

I know you don't want to spend the $$$, but I bet for your truck you could get a "spray-in" for about $300.  I think they are the way to go (Unless you get a bedrug like mine).  I know Arma Coatings runs specials here for $350 for a fleetside shortbed.  I'm just guessing you could talk them down on a Stepside...

Go "Herculiner"!

See my post in "Product Reviews" forum.

Get anything BUT a dropin bedliner.  Those things are just way to slick and send things in the bed shooting around like they came out of a gun.  I don't want to have to tie down everything I put in the bed.

i second Friz herculiner is the way to go, $100 just a spary in liner you do yourself. can get it at most auto stores

Drive a real truck.  Get a bed mat.

I'll add to the madness, get a spray in, or spend a day and do it yourself.  You won't regret it.

 

Over the rail drop in's tend to warp under the heat of sun.  I should know, looking at our old work trucks (long bed chevy trucks) even w/ 3 of those stake pocket tie downs holding them in they still warped in between them after a few years.  And this is WI where the sun doesn't shine for about 8 months.

Drop in's are a PIA.  I use the tie down loops often and the liner partially covers them. I hear that filling fuel tanks in a sprayed bed is not a danger as in a drop in but I don't know if this is a trueism. My next one will definitely be a spray on or a DIY brush on.

I had my local Line-X dealer do my son's S-10 and it looks great.  They cover the top of the tailgate and can do over the rail.  The only complaint about the Line-X after a couple of months is that I was hoping for a bit more friction to keep loads from shifting.  I think there are other spray in liners that are rougher.  If I had an '89, a low budget, time, and full mobility, I'd probably go with Herculiner.

[Bill89]

Ok, I will go with the spray in type.  I called the local parts store and they have a kind that I roll on for 50 bucks.  I know I need to do something. All the scratches are driving me crazy.
