Bed change

Hi guys

I have a few questions I currently have a fontaine bed and I am looking in the future to replace it with a centurion pickup bed so I would have a deeper bed with more room to haul stuff in it.

1. Will the centurion bed or similar pickup bed work/fit with the air suspension and dual fuel tank setup I have?

2. How much would a bed like that cost?

3. Also on the Fontaine bed I have the back part were the tailgate is supposed to be is open in a V shape can I unbolt the part and replace it with the tailgate piece from Fontaine?

4. anything else I should know about?

Thanks,
Andrew

Re: Bed change

If you look at the top sticky thread in this forum there is a listing of suppliers for aftermarket beds. You might browse there and see what you can find.
