Truck Bed Protection & Panels
Guard the Panels and Rails of the Bed
A truck bed takes its damage in specific places: the top of the bulkhead where things get slid over it, the rails where a ladder rides, and the front panel that a shifting load pushes into. This section covers the caps, panels and accessories that put a sacrificial layer on those edges.

Measuring your bed
Put a tape measure inside the bed, from the inside of the bulkhead (front wall) to the inside of the closed tailgate. Round to the nearest inch — a 69" measurement is a 5'8" bed.
Bed length is measured inside the box, not along the outside of the truck.
Still unsure? Leave it blank to see every length that fits your truck, or call 888-865-4024.
Putco builds most of the bulkhead caps here, the covers that go over the top edge of the bed's front panel so the paint underneath survives a few hundred loads.
AMP Research covers bed extender accessories, the parts that go with a gate-mounted extender rather than the extender itself, so check what you already have before ordering.
Rough Country, Rugged Ridge, Smittybilt, Go Rhino, TrailFX and ARIES fill in with panel hardware and mounting parts, including anchors for a head rack. WeatherTech adds cleaners and protectants for keeping the surfaces you just covered looking right.
These are vehicle-specific parts more often than not, since a cap has to match the profile of one truck's bed. Set your year, make and model in the selector on this page and the list narrows to what actually fits.
Common Questions
What is a bulkhead cap?
A cover for the top edge of the panel at the front of your bed, between the cargo area and the cab. That edge is what everything gets dragged across when it is loaded, and it is one of the first places a bed starts looking used. A cap takes the scraping instead of the paint.
Will these fit my truck?
Caps and panels are cut for a specific bed, so filter by year, make and model rather than by picture. Accessories for a bed extender are matched to the extender they belong to, which is a separate question from what truck you drive. The listing states which of those two applies.
