post pics of your line-x beds
#4
alright, just a momentary hijack here, but I've got a linex bed and love it. Unfortunately they were unable to remove the bolts that hold the bed on so they sprayed around it. I watched them break two snap-on bits trying to get them loose. But anyway, it still look good and clean, my problem is that maybe by coincidence, but ever since then, those bolts have developed rust on them. Anyone know of how to remove that rust and whether or not the line-x, perhaps the way they prepared the surface caused the rust? Thanks.

If the other end of that bolt has a nut on it, then they certainly should not have been using any king of "bit" on a screw gun. They should have held the bolt still with a screwdriver on the top side and then turned the nut with a wrench...but I really don't know how they are put together. If they were trying to turn the bolt with a screwdriver and there's a nut on the other end, then they were just idiots.

I love mine, It came in the truck when I bought it. I need to go up to the line x shop and talk to them though. I was walking out of the parts store the other day and I saw the warrenty tag laying in the bed. I have never had enough in the bed to contact this tag and need to find out if they can reattach it or if it needs to be in there if I ever have a problem. Mine is pretty scuffed up right now, I have an 18 gallon galvanized wash basin in there that is loaded with about 200# of concrete and a rubbermaid container with another 2 80# bags for snow weight. The bed floor is scuffed from sliding it in but I did not hurt the lining. Hitting the bed with a scrub brush when washing it and it looks brand new. Best part is that nothing slides around back there!
