looking for a RV Hauler body to replace the pick up bed

[szewczyk_john]

My 2006 Dodge Ram Mega cab 2500 has started to show surface rust through both quarter panels above the rear tires. I know from experience that once I start knocking of paint, the rusted area is going to be so much bigger than what is showing through now. I have often thought about putting a fifth wheel pulling body on instead of the pick up bed. I figured now would be a good time to start looking for one. Does anyone know where I can get used ones from. Surely there must be some junkyard that gets these used bodies from wrecks or take offs from other trucks. I can not locate such a facility. If you know of one please PM me.

I don't know of a particular salvage yard, but in my area the stores that sell livestock and utility trailers also sell the hauler type beds. They have stacks of used OEM and old hauler beds that they have pulled off of customer trucks when they put a new bed on. You may have some luck calling the trailer stores and asking.
