They have differing part numbers. I did have to use the smaller bumper when i did the swap. Now what one is it?
Supercrew and flareside share rear bumpers

Styleside standard 6.5' and 8' have a different bumper



If you are looking on CL or Junkyard digging, the Screw/Flare bumper has a thick plastic bumper pad

LOVE my 2000 lifted flareside. Bought it new in 2000 and have no intention of getting rid of her.

No. Flaresides have a much narrower bed with steps on the side and bulging fenders. 2009 was the last year of the Flareside and the first year of the body style your pic is. Here is a pic of a 2009 Flareside.




Your pic is of a truck newer than 2009 - not sure what exact year but it's definitely not a 2009.

Bed Caps for Flareside?

Hi, I'm looking for BED CAPS for my 1992 Flareside.

So far I've only been able to find one website that even lets me choose the Flareside bed as an option (aztrucks.com) but they only offer stainless bed caps for the Flareside bed, I am looking for black plastic like you see on most trucks. I don't know if all these truck accessory websites just don't list Flareside because it's relatively uncommon or because they actually have different bed cap styles and they don't manufacture/carry them...?

Does anyone know if FLARESIDE vs STYLESIDE are the same in terms of measurements for fitting bed caps?

I received a 1999 f150 stepside/flareside from a relative and I love it. I am thinking of getting a tonneau cover for it but I am having a hard time finding one. It is a regular cab short bed which I think is 6.5ft but everything I find looks like it is for a styleside, will that work? Does anyone have a cover if so where did you get it and what is the cheapest I can get. I would like to get a tri-fold over a roll up but a roll up will work. Thanks.

A Styleside cover will not work on a Flareside. The bed is totally different.
