Looking to replace my fleetside bed with a stepside on a 95 Sonoma.
Wondering what years of beds will work without alot of trouble?
My cab is a extended.

Thanks for any input

All of them, only shorty stepsides were made and only shorties fit the extended cab. They're tough to find but be persistent. I've bought a couple of extras, most sell in the $250 range.

Nice to see somebody changing one to clearly make it better looking...I'm a big fan of steppers, particularly on S10's because they were the best proportioned of all of 'em. I have a crew that'll get a 17" frame stretch and a stepside bed.

Hi Salty,

Pleased to meet you! Thanks for the response. Yes I also like the look of the stepper.
Saw a all black 98 with a stepside, It looked so horney!! There is a step bed for 275.00 an hour away from me that is in great shape but its from a 2000, Thats why I posted my question. Thanks

I'd be hooking up a trailer and snatching up that stepper, not a bad price for what's becoming a very difficult part to find. IMHO, a slight drop with the right wheels makes a RCSB stepper one of the better looking S10's.

Look that bargain stepside box over carefully. You don't want one rust has started on. Cost more to fix than you paid for it.

When you get the stepside bed, it'd be best if the fuel filler is still attached. The fleetside and sportside filler necks are different (at least mine were.) Mine was a 94 bed onto a 97 truck but any 94-04 will work.

Again, depending on year, filler necks and gas cap styles are different (emissions stuff, I presume) and the wiring harness is slightly different length between the fleetside and sportside but that stuff will likely already/still be attached to your "new" bed.
