Anyone have rail top guard recomendation for a 2006 long bed. I had them on my 02 and they looked bad after 3 years. Do not rember the brand.

I put a set of Wade plastic rail protectors on my '04... Durable, but the tape that holds it on is starting to give....

DuckHunterinTN used 1/4" angle iron for ultimate protection. http://dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43418

Failing that, maybe diamond-plate rail caps or plastic caps. Just depends on what you're using them for and the look you're going for.

I have stainless steel Putco bed skins on mine. They fit nice, and no worries about corrosion or clear coat peeling like the aluminum ones usually do.

I really don't recall. An online retailer for sure. I'm sure a quick web search will turn up many vendors.
