Thanks

There are some minor differences: The firewall stamping is different, but I think the floorboards should be the same. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 | Bitchin Products sells a complete floor replacement for your truck for $178.00.

This was accomplished by moving the firewall forward. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2011 Posts: 106 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Apr 2011 Posts: 106 | Bitchin Products sells a complete floor replacement for your truck for $178.00.

I don't know why it doesn't show up now except that it might be wholesale only. That means only retail vendors and rod shops can order the materials. This must be something new in their marketing. Try this link.

Might be a different site? | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 |
Sachse Rod Shop carries Bitchin stuff.
sachserodshop.com
Their website says:
You can also call us toll free at (800) 495-3904 or (972) 495-1557 to place an order. We are open Monday-Friday 8:00-5:00 and Saturdays 9:00-1:00, central standard time.
They are local to the Dallas area but will be happy to give you information on Bitchin. Give them a call. I have found they sell a lot of products that only vendors can get and some stuff you can get direct. However their prices are the same as the vendors so whenever possible I buy from them so any problem they can handle it.They can tell you where you can find what you're looking for up in your neighborhood.
Stay safe from the storm.
