    Little of this and a little of that
    Total Chaos, just because he said people would. :rofl:

    I do have the Total Chaos ones and they're stout but also like he said they all do the same job. Lol

    Yeah its a toss up for whatever you want to get. I have Total chaos and They are really stout and have plenty of tie downs. Others like cali raised are almost identical, They all do the same job. The reason I like the Total Chaos is they go higher up the bedsides then most.

    That is too bad, maybe I simply got lucky with the right employee.

    Same here. I like that my TC stiffeners run up higher on the bed. I use the top tie-down hole a ton.

    I had the same problem with my headlights. I took the truck to a car window tinting shop and they cleaned them up and placed a clear headlight bra on them. Look brand new.

    I just ordered some Rago fab bed stiffeners. They are made out stainless steel (instead of mild steel) and were cheaper than most options I could get

    Installed some Amazon special ditch lights, put in the Husky floor mats my wife got me for Christmas, and attempted to install my bed stiffeners... but I nearly/ pretty much stripped one bed bolt:censored: and am too scared to attempt the other lol. Also, my cat was there for moral support!

    Wasn't wanting that much but they said if I'd take the pallet I could have it all. They figured there was a couple busted bags that would need to be replaced and if I took it all they would call it even. Couldn't refuse that, actually got way more than a couple extra bags. The weight brought the rear end down to level, rode great.

    About time somebody offered these in stainless... and when is someone gonna sell the damn bed bolts in stainless... I was going to put a stainless kit together for the entire bed but I couldn't find the actual bed bolts, I did find everything else.
