Well i am thinking of selling my bed rug I have in my truck. And I am thinking of getting some other type of bed liner. But i dont know what other kind? And no I dont want a spray in liner. So do you all have any suggestions? Maybe a dual liner or a drop in liner?
Thanks

 

from what i have seen on here the dual liner looks to be a very nice product and would be a good choice. why do you want to get rid of the bedrug?

 

if you go for a non hard cover tonneau get a folder like this one.

the hard covers suck unless you never haul anything, basicly its a big trunk lid.

 

I want to get rid of it because here lately I have been hauling hay, and well carpet and hay dont mix..lol. With everything else I haul its just doesnt fit my needs ya know. Its still and good shape and I just dont want to ruin it if a shovel or something else gets rammed into it. And plus I just want to sweep out the bed, not powerwash it or vacum it out. Thanks guys. Im still up in the air about the hole liner thing. Can someone give me a review of there liner if you are running a drop in or dual liner?
Thanks!

 

Sprayed in is the best, but if you dont want one, I suppose the only liner worth getting would be Dual Liner.

 

Well Im not totally against spray ons. But the only dealer I have close to me is a Rhino LIner dealer. And from I have seen personally, they aint worth it. Line-X I mite spring for. But the closest dealer is oh 2 1/2 hours away.

 

Welder, I can tell you all the advantages of the DualLiner - but as I'm the General Manager, some might think I have a bias. Actually, I loved using one so much I came looking for the company. You'll love it, we sell them satisfaction guaranteed!

 

Get a plastic drop-in. They work great, even though everyone in here acts like they are junk.

Would be great for hay, and shoveling.

If I had spare cash I'd go lineX. Since that isn't an option for you because of distance....get a drop-in .

 

Personally, I'd stay far away from a solid drop in. It WILL eventually cause your truck to rust. If you don't want a spray in, go dual liner or maybe just a bed mat. I guess it depends on what you're gonna use your truck for.

 

You know, I was in your same shoes too welder. The only dealer around here is a Rhino dealer and from seeing the jobs he does, I would never recommend anyone to that guy or Rhino all in all. The closest LineX that I approved of to actually do my truck was in North Benton Ohio - 2 hours away from where I live here in PA. Dan done an awsome job with my F-150, I have no problem showing it off. I just plain old love it. Yeah it's a drive... but a drive well worth it in the end.

 

Thanks guys. How will a drop in make my truck rust out? I figured a drop in would be better then just a bed mat. Anyway, I live in ohio. Where about is North Benton? Bryndon I do have one question about dual liners, Does anything get in between the mat and bedliner? like water and such?

 

About 2hrs and 13 mins away so says map quest. Up by Akron.

 

Water will pass under the mat and out the factory drain holes, the way it was the bed designed to work. The mat and the sidewalls only touch along the edge of the mat, where the mat fits into a formed channel on the sidewalls. This acts as a "filter" keeping the large particles (leaves, pine needles, etc) on the surface, away from the drain holes.

Our liner keeps the factory paint intact - like the outside of your truck - if the paint is protected, corrosion issues don't occur. Water running across has never been an issue.

The reason that people say the tradional drop in liners cause rust is because they have to fit loosely to install and remove. As you drive, the liner chatters and chafes, very effectively sanding the paint off underneath. This effect even occurs at idle. Once the integrity of the paint is gone, rust can occur.

The DualLiner fits tightly to the sheetmetal, so there isn't any movement. Paint stays intact and therefore, corrosion is not an issue.

That is all the long winded way of saying - Yes, water passes through without any ill effects.

I hope that helps.

 

Next time you're in a parking lot and see a truck with a plastic over the rail liner, go up to it and lift up on the side a little. If the liner's been on for 2 years or so you'll see how the paint is worn away.

I am curious to see if the Dual line would end up doing the same thing after a few years.

 

Im courious about this too. Thats why I havent pulled the trigger yet. And Im not sure on how much to ask for the bed rug. Bryndon, does dual-liner have a trade in program?? lol just jokin
