Attention: TDR Forum Junkies Damaged the box on my '01 in December and when I took it into the body shop they tried for a month to find a decent replacement box..... they could not find one. Went to a local trailer sales lot and they handled the CM truck beds. They assured me that the TM model would work on my truck and would still allow me to tow my 5th wheel. Well the bed on that box was way to high for 5th wheel towing and I did not want a plain flat bed. The other thing I noticed about the CM beds was that they had a lot of caulking at the seams... ... . led me to believe that they were "skip" welded instead of continuous bead.
Contacted Larry Herrin in Kilgore, TX at herrinhaulers.com , sent him measurements from my truck, hitch and 5th wheel. Picked my new bed up last Friday. I am very impressed with the work that Larry does. He had two full sized Volvo tractors in his shop that he was building beds for. One bed was going to use a hydraulic lift, and the other ramps, to load Smart Card side ways behind the cab. The work he does is nothing but top notch.
Yesterday I hitched up to the trailer... ... . sits dead level when hooked up!! Wish I would have made this change a long time ago.
