Anyone take the plastic ones off their truck and replace them with the metal diamond plate ones? How do they fit? Were they expensive?

I always called them rail guards, but that's me I guess.

Just google "diamond plate rail caps" that'll get you what you're looking for.

Good luck finding them for a short bed, Dee Zee makes some nice ones looks like you can do all four sides for less than $250. If they made them for my short bed I would do it.

If you have a short bed and do find them let me know.

That's been the problem. Can't find anything for the short bed. In a way I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one lol

I originally looked at the Dee Zee caps for my 4th gen. So far I have only done the tailgate full plate.
They do have them for the 6'.4"short bed & 8" long bed trucks. On their site you need to use Dodge rather than Ram for them to come up.
From what I have read they go over the original plastic caps.

I would not be a fan of metal on metal.
