Silverado Bedside Replace 

Y’all some haters to give thumbs down... This young man is doing a good job half y’all couldn’t have done ... you keep doing what you do real talent

I would have never thought about tackling such a job like this on my own. This young man now has inspired me that I can do it. THANK YOU

Best video I’ve seen and its good to see a younger man doing his own collision repair keep up the videos

Thanks for passing this knowledge on, you will do great things in your career

best bed panel video on RU-vid thanks

Thanks for the video I was about to replace the whole bed. My pop did not believe me about replacing just the side panel thank you. You saved me from extra work

Good to see a younger man doing jobs like this. Keep up the good, honest, and quality work. 👍🏻 It's better than video games❗

You killed it!! Hope your Pop is proud of you.

Damn good video youngster!

That's a LOT of vise grips. Nice!

Glad to see a young guy like me working in the collision industry actually doing structural work. I watch these videos to help me become a better estimator. My mind is set somewhere else other than being a tech but I LOVE learning how to perform the hard work you guys do. This video has been great and you’ve earned a subscribe from me. I will be watching your other videos now..... btw, where are you from? I’m in Los Angeles, California. Thanks!!

Very nice, thank you. I have to replace one on my K5, this helped a lot.

Wow. Just wow. Great job

good job your dad taught you well , you have a good work ethic , you give me confidence I think I can do this , thanks for the education .

Thats quality work, excellent video!

Very good tutorial,probably one of the best on you tube ,all the other video the guys just talks and talks...this give me confident on replacing mine.

Well done kiddo.. for future bedside R&R, no need to air hammer 90% off first. You're still going and grinding all your spot welds off with or without the panel there. A guy I work with used to do the same thing and he kinda fought me on it, I just showed him there is no need. But if that's what you like to do, there is nothing wrong with it. I'm a collision technician myself 20 years now. Bedsides are still my fav job to do. Pays a minimum of 12 hours and I have it down to 1 1/2 hours from first weld grind off to rolling the bed over to paint dept. Gravyyyyyy

Exactly the kind of video I was looking for, thanks

Nicely done.

Awesome job young man

Good video! You should invest in the drill bit for those spot welds. That way you don't gotta grind them and chisel them. They just come loose with the drill bit. I might even try to do my own bed sides. Hopefully there's not too much rust on it.

Going to give this a shot. Thank you for the video!!!

Alright buddy, I'll be watching for it. Thanks

looks great thanks for showing how to do it

Good stuff. Great job!!

looks good man, did you blend new paint into rear door only?

You did a great job man, keep it up

AWSOME job 👏

nice video! after welding, do you phosphoric acid wash/spray sealer inside to cover the areas ground off and welds?

Nice work!

Nice job dude!

Great job🤠👍

Great job Kid

great video!

Question! I have a very similar dent (crater on my 2000 silverado) its going to a body shop to have it pulled and or replaced like this (depending if they can pull it or not) but i was wondering where you found the side molding or did you salvage it off the old piece? cause I can't seem to find anyone selling that oem style side molding.

Where did you get your bed side panel?

well now I see why all the shops want to charge me $3300 to replace my qtr panel (03 Ram) not an easy project!! Great vid 👍👍👍

Hey bro can I ask if this is both inner and outer panel replacement? And real good work 👍🏼👍🏼

Great job/work young man !!!!! get a pair of work gloves to protect your hands- I am working on the same year truck - where did you buy the panel? You inspired me to go for it !!! Thanks Ron Hazleton, Pa

Thanks, I wanted to see what the bed looked like without the bedside

Excellent video. A few questions for you. Is panel bond the same as seam sealer? Is panel bond weldable, or did you not use it in the location of the welds? Also, how long did the job take?

Thanks man. Gona order one soon. Kicking my self in the ass for what I did to my driver side.

The amount of vice grips alone, plus the special belt sander tool, plus the panel and paint is enough to warrant me going ahead and spending the $800 they want on body work and paint.

So I just bought a Silverado that needs this doing due to rust and dent, where is the best place to purchase the body panels that ship ?

If you don't mind what size disc or wheel is that on your angle grinder? I would like to try that out i always use a belt sander but that wheel you have looks faster! Thanks

I have the exact same kinda damage same side and everything. How much was this job? I wish I had all the knowledge and tools I would give it a try

Where did you buy the side panel from? I’m looking to do the same job to my 2003 .

Do you have a final total for this? Got the same dent and thinking about how i should go about it. Was it cheaper replacing the whole panel? And about how long do you think it took doing what you did without the time lapse?

Thats alot of work i was looking cause i have to take my 2014 silverado in the bed is damages bad and the bumper too i think looks like alot of money. What was this total build out for customer if you don't mind me asking?

Where did you buy the new quarter panel from? I’ve been looking but I can’t find any

Nice job. I have to replace mines on a 2014 tundra. Not looking forward to doing it.

Awesome thanks

Nice job! How much is this repair?

Great video, currently looking to get this outer panel replaced on my 02 Silverado. Can you give me a rough estimate for this kind of repair pls . Don’t want to get blindsided at local body shops :)

Do you have any videos on cab corners?

How much would a panel replacement and paint cost...roughly??

where are you located? how much for a job like this from start to finish for a 2011 sierra crew cab?

What website you use for auto parts for that part

Did you even need to weld after the panel bond ?

Good job, very impressive for as young as you are. How long did it take to install that one side? Trying to decide if I should bondo all the blemishes in mine or just replace the entire bedside.

Great video were are u located

Where did you get the panel ?

I have a 2001 Chevy Silverado why is the side of the bed more towards the passenger side on the driver side I have a lip

Where can I buy a Bed panel at? The same exact one?

So wait, why do you have to cut out the center section of the panel? Can't you just grind off the welds like you did and the whole panel should pop off??

Approximately how many hours did this take you

Trying to understand why he cut it off ? Pretty Easy to drill out spot welds , unscrew screws , and pull the whole panel off. And only cut corner on hard to reach spot welds in-between the bed and cab.

What year was this truck? Will this work for 07.5

Wondering if he was saving that molding lol

Do you do the spot welds after the panel bond dries?

Nice video, was that a Astro belt grinder you used on the upper rail, do it work well? Thanks

But very nice work

I have to do this too, can I borrow 35 Vice-Grips?

Great job but i did not see you prefit the panel. I'm sure you did though Great video.

Where did you get the bedside?

Wat size bed is it and where u get it from

I dont have a welder do i need one for this job??

Where did you order your panels?

So if I have a huge dent on the wheel arch it’s screwed then huh

how much did this repair cost?

Where did you get that hole punch from?

How much would a repair like this cost?

Are you near Chicago,illinois ?

Yes great job dad taught you well

how much was the panel?

where is your body shop located?

How much did a bed side like that run

Where are you located ? I need the same fix on my truck

We’re you buy the bed side ??

the damage is close to that of my 94 k2500. looking for a repair person.

Not one weld..tisk tisk

to much work I rather get a full used bed.

Minecraft background music?

Good video!! Please wear gloves next time!!

Nice video. But didnt look aligned at all

excellent video but your working to hard try grinder with cut off wheel to cut apart and flap wheel to sand down spot welds ive never done this before but that's how I would do it

Don't get why some people don't like video🤢

Screw that I rather buy a new bed

All that and could have bought a new box for probably half the price and installed it

I can’t believe you didn’t clean the hidden part of that bed and remove the rust from the top of the inner wheel well and coat them with rust inhibitor before you put that bedside back on. Especially knowing Chevy trucks are notorious for rusting out at the wheel wells. Pretty lazy.
