yeah i need to know if the only mounting spot is the top below the tailgate or if there is anything on the bottom that you mount to i have a fiberglass roll pan and just want to know the best way to mount
I am not sure about fiberglass, but my steel one only mounted at the top. I made up a couple little brackets for the bottom (one on either side).
get a steel one and weld it in like i did, then i made two tabs on bottom so i could bolt it to the frame for more support due to my exhaust exiting threw the roll pan...Ack.... fiberglass?
Get a steel one and shave it in
The fiberglass ones are junk, my original one was fiberglass until i seen how flimzy they are
the one i have is particularly thick it is not like the plastic injected flimsy ones. it seems pretty stout but i could be wrong. i like light weighted ness of the fiberglass for truck pulling reasons. plus it would be nice for it to be removable but i like the ease of welding it in place
yes it tucks back toward the truck were it meets the sides of the truck bed on the lower quarter panel

I bought a heavy duty fiberglass white one for Casper awhile back. I bolted it on with 10mm hardware. I'll try to get pics Monday.
i used the steel one and the only hold downs were at the top. i drilled two 10MM holes on the lip in the inside of the pan towards the bottom and bolted it to the bed. worked good. Or if you wanted to go the easier way you can use sheet metal screws. you wont see them and you only need one on each side.
