@RealSuperRando 4 года назад

How sad that truck owners who buy $50k plus vehicles have to go through all this just because Chevrolet is too cheap to properly prep and paint the frame. I drive a semi with a properly prepped and painted frame. 500,000 miles and not a spec of rust.

@TheSundaeDrive 4 года назад

Very frustrating. I wish they would at least offer it as an option.

@RealSuperRando 4 года назад

The Sundae Drive I definitely would pay for that but with all the profit they make on trucks it should be included. Wear out a car through miles of driving, reasonable. But to have it fall apart and rot is ridiculous. If they sell vehicles in the rust belt then they should be built to withstand the elements.

@TheSundaeDrive 4 года назад

Agree sir!

@bmocaby9747 2 года назад

I'm selling my 2013 silverado with 94k miles because of this. Rockers are already rusting. Replaced both front wheel bearings. Just fixed a fuel leak ontop of the tank. And not only that but it still has the afm to be done. These new trucks are a money pit. And the sad thing is I'm very picky about keeping it clean and maintained. But it doesn't matter with these new ones. They seem to rot no matter what

@TheSundaeDrive 2 года назад

That stinks man. They are definitely a lot of work to maintain

@louisp.3332 5 лет назад

Very interesting, best video I’ve seen yet!!!! But those holes don’t look like they leave any room for adjustment. If my bed was off a little bit and I wanted to straighten it up I am assuming there is no way to do that because the holes on the bed and frame are exact? Standing by the tail lights and looking forward you can see the cab sticking out on the right side but on the left side there’s no cab exposed so I need to shift the front of the bed an inch to the right!

@TheSundaeDrive 5 лет назад

I do not think it would be easy to adjust unfortunately, the bed is designed to go on one way with the bolts lining up with the holes. There are also alignment pins that need to match up. Was the truck possibly in an accident at some point?

@louisp.3332 5 лет назад

The Sundae Drive first and foremost I would like to tell you how much I appreciate your response!!! It was unexpected :) Correct, 2015 Silverado 2500 crew, ran off the road and sideswiped enbankment but hit bumper first at about a 10 angle (warn winch mount & grill guard took 85% of the impact) even though the bed of the truck wasn’t touched what’s funny is the front left top corner has a funny looking twisted indentation of about an inch or two and the passenger side top corner which had nothing to do with nothing has a protrusion as if you took your thumb and were Superman and pushed out an inch or so. I looked underneath and didn’t see any of the mounts or anything out of place so it looks like when the front driver corner hit (40mph) it did something to the bed via kinetic energy! I had it aligned and everything was fine and the back looks perfectly level it just looks like it kind of shifted but when I look underneath at the bolts and holes and mounts they haven’t moved so it’s kind of bizarre! Truck was paid for and I had just dropped the collision to save money... so it’s a DIY!

@TheSundaeDrive 5 лет назад

That sounds like your frame got twisted slightly by the force of the impact. Most likely you cab and bed also collided and then separated again during initial impact. I'm not sure of that is something that will be easily fixed 😬 I wish you the best of luck with it tho! That stinks :( at least you had the guard on front!

@louisp.3332 5 лет назад

The Sundae Drive something seems VERY amiss to me here with your attitude lately!!! You can’t deny we have grown closer to each other these last couple days?? I mean you made it this far, at this point why stop now??? You start out being very nice, blah blah, cordial & friendly (whatever) and neighborly “yeah RIGHT” just to end abruptly and tell me oh well have a great day??? I simply do NOT understand why you’re not willing to stop what you’re doing, hop in your truck, drive to the mountains of North Carolina and FIX this issue for me!!!! What kind of scam are you running here buddy-boy?!? Talk about a tease!!!! You nonchalantly and very casually post an enticing video (entrapment) showing how easy it is to remove the bed from a truck, yet you’re not willing to come here and do it for me??? After all we’ve been through together? Sounds like a lot of smoke and mirrors you got going on over there. You didn’t really remove that bed did you? Yeah I didn’t think so...look for the sake of your fanbase I think it’s time for you to STOP being lazy, load up your damn frame straightening machine on a flatbed and get your butt down here NOW!!!! (you could pick up some Chinese food on the way be much appreciated)

@TheSundaeDrive 5 лет назад

😂😂 what kind of Chinese? Haha. Have you had any luck with it?

@jimbradley727 5 лет назад

You must not be watching the videos on why not to use rubberized coating.. I almost made the mistake but I've been researching for the last 2 or 3 weeks...in a perfect world sealing your frame in a rubberized coating sounds great.. but unfortunately rocks and debris will pit and cause your rubberized coating to have failures as well as the potential that you didn't completely seal all nooks and crannies...so water now gets into your rubberized coating and it stays there until a hole leeches it out. So in essence the rubberized coating both keeps water out and keeps water in. I've decided to opt out of rubberized coating and merely use the Ospho to convert the rust and paint... I'm in a southern state so I don't need to do all the annual semi-slick coatings that protect against the winter's salt..

@TheSundaeDrive 5 лет назад

You are correct which is why I painted the frame first with several layers of POR15. That should be impervious to any water, salt, etc. The rubberized coating is really to protect the paint from getting chipped due to debris. It would be a very bad ideas to just do the rubberized undercoating without painting the frame first. Going to hit the truck with fluid film or something equivalent in the winter for some added protection tho. I am jealous that you don't have to deal with the salt and brine we do up here lol.

Putting a 2015 bed onto my 77 square using highway sign posts to widen the frame to use the newer wider bed spacing...

@craiggerlach5548 Год назад

On the 8 foot bed I bought, there was another pair of cross braces drilled and equipped with the same mounting system on each side of the tire so 6 bolts each side are possible.. There were 6 cross braces, front pair had 48" spacing and the next 3 had both 39" and 48" spacing and the rear just the 39". Person I bought box from gave me 12 bolts same size then 8 next size bigger of which I could find no holes in bed ot match so assume from bumper...

Curious, what do you figure the bed and tailgate weighs? Considering building a flatbed camper on the back of my sierra 1500 but weight is a consideration.

@TheSundaeDrive 8 месяцев назад

Unfortunately I'm not exactly sure they aren't light but I would guess the bed itself is probably around 500 lb maybe a little more and the tailgate is probably like 70 lb or so

@MikeBabsBC 8 месяцев назад

@TheSundaeDrive thank you so much for the reply! Oh, wow, that's a goof chunk of weight! Thinking of an aluminum build that would probably weight out to around 600lbs, so that's awesome news!

@kylebaker4526 4 года назад

Are there bushings/spacers or anything between the bed and the frame? Just curious because my frame is perfectly level side to side so the suspension isn’t sagging, but the bed itself sits a half inch lower on the drivers side.

@TheSundaeDrive 4 года назад

Only some small pucks from what I remember that are maybe 1/4 inch but nothing significant

@kylebaker4526 4 года назад

The Sundae Drive Gotcha. Thanks for the reply. Kind of strange that it doesn’t sit level unless the actual mounting brackets were welded onto the frame are unlevel.
