Is there anywhere in town that you would recommend to get a spray-on bedliner and undercoating? I checked with oiltrell and their price was real good compared to ziebart. $175 difference.

I called Ziebart last Friday about Rhinolining a small boat trailer frame and they quoted me $900.00! I guess they didn't want to mess with it. DIY, here I come! ..........TexasJim..........

I went with C&S plating. They really jumped through hoops to get my truck in and taken care of and great people!

Hi Zia. I dunno anyplace around that does it "cheaply." But I remember the pictures from Towboat (the pictures of HIM) when he did the underside of Big Red--I'd say it's worth every dime to pay someone else to do it. Very Happy

I used C&S for bed liner and undercoating.
If I ever get another truck, I'll be going there again right away.
Very pleased with the work and service.

Another question. I want to put a receiver hitch on the front of my 2010 Silverado. I saw some place where you can remove one of the tow hooks on a front and put a receiver in there some sort. I think though it has to be welded. Anybody in town that does welding of that sort? I was originally going to get a front receiver hitch made by Curt that attaches to the chassis but it rides too low.

I had a bolt on curt on mine that I installed in an hour or so. It was a gmc z71, so may ride a bit higher. I thought it was too low also but never had a problem with it hitting or scraping or anything even with a loaded down rod rack in it.

If you have the stock bumper on the Silverado, it's gunna be a little effort even with a weld. That said, if you're not 4 wheeling down PINS, Laguna Shores =) or something, the tow-hook level might be OK, especially if it reverse "L's" upward without sticking out too far down low before whatever hitch you put on. Something like a _--
