    Anyone done this yet? Ive seen some things on plastic liners not being the best thing ever. Have a topper on my truck and am about to build a bed platform and curious if i should just strip the liner out before and put some other protection on.

    You're not getting it are you. That IS the bed. You have a composite bed. There is nothing underneath that.

    You trolling or what?

    You're talking about taking the bed off the truck. Beneath that is the frame.

    That's your composite bed. No composite = no bed. That is your bed. Do not remote the composite because it is your truck bed. Do NOT remove it

    I personally have a long tool box, technicians tool kit and a cooler rolling around in that bed and it hasn't dented, scratched or broken anywhere. Just leave it in

    before the lock, the answers werent that cryptic. second response (after the first explicitly telling you that it isnt what you think it is) said quite directly what it was you are referring to. dont get mad, just take the information. and yes, some people would and do make troll posts like this for whatever their gratification may be.

    Here. If you remove that "big piece of fucking plastic" it will look like this.

    Because like others have said, it's not a liner, it's your bed.
