    Haven't seen another 3rd gen with something like these. Any ID on these?

    Hmm, says they fit 05-15 models but the bed/cab is basically identical to 3rd gen in that area I believe. Plus the video makes it look like a snug fit.

    Too bad the manufacturer down't sell it anymore.

    Hoping that over time more of these sorts of retro parts get made for 3rd gens. I looked up the prices on Amazon and some other retailers...$450-$600. Seems like a lot.

    It fit fine.

    I wasn't wild how it looked on my 3G when the truck was stock.

    I think the smaller bars flow better with the AC than the DC.

    I've got my eyes on the Black Horse Off-Road piece, though I have been able to only find two photos of trucks with that bar and none of them are particularly clear. The GoRhino piece is absolutely beautiful, but I hate the idea of drilling the bedsides to fit it.

    Honestly I love the look of minimalist 1980s style bars, the newer stuff looks too chunky. Install looks super easy too. Gonna have to think if it's worth it at that price.

    The Beds Are NOT the same!

    The track sits higher on the 2nd gen.

    The way the N-Fab bolts in, the mounting holes were slotted. It would be a non-issue on the truck.

    Great - Just wanted to point out that as one different in the two beds.
