Putco Stake Pocket Style Bed Rails (Black)
By Brendan G. Eads
Got these back in November '08 for 2008 Chevy Silverado. Pretty solid apparatus when put together- long center tube with short elbows attached at each end- with decent heft. However, I went with the "stake pocket style" to not have to drill into my new truck and the completed assembly, while solid enough for show, is questionable if your actually going to use these bars for their intended purpose. The manufacturer gives some kind of weight ratings but I question how well they'd perform under a load. You see the bars are actually mounted on the truck with rubber stoppers at each end, that you tighten a screw, topside, to compress the stopper so it fills up the stake pocket hole to hold bar assembly in place. Anyway, mine are pretty much for show so ok. Also, packaging and finish of the bars could be lots better and definitely should be for the price these things are. Packaging was barely adequate- just enough to get the job done, and the black finish was less than thrillin g with more than one area showing visible inaccuracies and lack of quality care. Condition was just good enough to keep in check my motivation to return notwithstanding my high desire to see them on the truck as quickly as possible. Perhaps condition was a combination of both manufacturing and shipping- but who cares. For $168 these things ought to be pristine. Anyway, do look great on the truck especially from a distance, and black finish is easy enough to repair, repaint, enhance by yourself for little cost when and if you want to. I am happy with the bars as they do give a great appearance to the truck, but only after having purchased other black powder coated items- namely sport-tube steps by Iron Cross- and being very impressed with both packaging and finish quality, I would probably return the rail bars if I had it to do over again, and seek out a stronger value-based option.

Great!
By Rick
Very good item. Good quality, with exception to the spacers that go under them. They are very likely to fade pretty fast, not a big issue at all though. Gave my '13 F150 a very nice look with my bed cover. Love em.
