Does anyone know if one is made for our trucks. Seems like a it would be a very popular part and extremely easy to produce. I'd try to make one myself however the bend that is in there has a slight radius and I don't really know how well I'd be able to reproduce this on a brake.
If anyone knows if a patch panel for the inside bottom of our gates is available, please pass on the source.

It would help to know if you have a stepside or wide bed.
If I was to fabricate that patch I'd just use a length of pipe or preferably solid round bar as a dolly and start hammering.
