Roll Pans....

SouthFlstrokin' · Aug 18, 2011

Thinking about getting a roll pan. I've only had fiberglass Roll pans. I've heard to stay away from urethane, and get steel for the best finish.

Has anyone ever bought a steel roll pan from airbagit.com? If so do they fit well? Any issues?

Found this looks like a deal...

Been digging around on the interwebs for a few hours on this. From what I gather they fit well with dakotas and ricer type applications and folks are really happy with them. I'm still looking for SD pictures and reviews. Since you posted this thread Im pretty well digging the roll pan idea. But Id like to have one I can bolt on. So I can remove it when I tow my jetski.

I've seen roll pan installs that have the hitch punched right through the pan and then hidden. That way you can still tow and have the nice street look.

I'd love to get one for mine eventually.

Also for best for and finish I'd suggest a steel pan from grant kustoms...no personnel experience (yet) but they are know to be to quality in the industry

I have a Sir Michaels. It's good, but could be better. I relocated my hitch farther forward and everything looks great.

You can't go wrong with grant. Your gonna pay more but quality they are second to none!!

Sir michaels and grant are weld on right?

SouthFlstrokin' · Aug 19, 2011

No sir michaels is bolt on.

Still cant find pics of airbagit on a 250

It's weird cause in the title it says, "cannot make"

I've had them all...Grant Fabrication or nothing.
It's the only steel pan on the market that matches the curve of the tailgate.
Yes they're expensive but if you want steel you better buy the best.

Sir Michaels has a nice hidden hitch though...thaw what I use. I mounted my plate on a cut down ball mount and just pop it off if I need to tow anything.

unbroken, whats wrong with urethane ones?

UNBROKEN · Aug 19, 2011

Flimsy and fit like crap. The Street Scene one I had was the worst of the bunch.

JMart · Aug 19, 2011

I had a street scene in my garage for awhile that I never installed. I could tell it was going to look like crap.

I went with Unbroken's advice and got the Grant. It took some fab work to get it on the truck but it looks really good. Dont order around Christmas time though. It took me over 2 months to get mine in my hands.
