Aluminum is never cheap, but is nice because lightweight and rust free. Should be a very useful design with lots of room for gear. I have an 75 series bed sitting in my shop that i might end up bobbing on both sides to fit up on my truck. I want the bed length to be in the 5' to 5.5' range, so im not getting hung up on the back end in the rocks. I haven't decided fully on the 75 series bed or just making a nice removable side flatbed...

Aluminum is the way to go for sure. I do have a mild concern with structural integrity should my truck end up on it's side somewhere on a trail and yes it has happened before. I don't know why but I thought a riveted stainless skin on it would look good... painted of course.
