Are there any companies that make bedsides where the post at front & back are "hidden" or smoothed in with the rest of the bed side?

I haven't been able to find any yet and haven't come up with a good way to "hide" the post and keep it looking smooth.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Haven't seen any in my travels. Have seen a few trucks where guys swapped on a newer stepside bed onto exisiting frame for a smoother look.

I don't have the info on the guy, but there is a shop (somewhere) in Oregon that makes beds with the pockets being straight and not flanged where they meet the bed...... this gives a smooth look.You might try "google". The other option is to have a good sheet metal shop form some for you.
