Product Description
1997-2003 Ford F-150 Regular Cab Long Bed w/ Flares: Ten-Piece Lower Rocker Trim, 3.25" (TH37311)
TH37311 is the two-door long bed flare kit in the 1997-2003 Ford F-150 group. Its tag: "2-door, Pickup Truck, Long Bed, w/ Flares." It's a ten-piece polished stainless steel Lower Kit, 3.25" wide, that "Spans from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
Four facts to confirm
Every F-150 kit here shares the same width and piece count, so getting the right one is about matching four facts on your truck to the tag:
- Years 1997-2003.
- Two doors.
- Long bed.
- Flares.
All four true: this kit. No flares: TH37309. Short bed: TH37310 (flares) or TH37308. Extra Cab: TH37302, TH37303, TH37312, TH37313.
What the record doesn't explain
How the flare version differs from the plain one, and where ten pieces go on a two-door truck. The product photos answer both better than words can. Study them before ordering, and call 877-752-3811 if they don't match your truck.
A note on the pillar kit
PP37308 is linked but tagged "4-door, Pickup Truck, Crew Cab," which doesn't describe a two-door. None of the rocker kits is tagged Crew Cab. Check that listing before putting it in an order for this truck.
Material and tape
The flared long-bed F-150's ten pieces are made in the USA from polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel and go on over the existing paint with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA says the tape will hold for a lifetime without damaging the truck.
Low on the door
The band starts at the door bottom and rises 3.25". Because it sits so low, the condition of the bottom edge matters. Look for chips or rust bubbles there and fix them first.
Prep and install
Wash, dry, alcohol-wipe. Label all ten pieces from the photos. Dry-fit, then peel a few inches, press, and continue as the liner comes away. Firm pressure over each finished piece.
Near the flares
Dry-fit pieces near the flares with particular care and compare with the photos.
Door handles
DH37304 and DH37305, linked door handle cover kits tagged 2-door pickup, differ by key access. Check their listings.
Care
Hold off washing the F-150 for a day.
Even spacing
Use a tape measure from the door edges and wheel openings to place each F-150 piece, holding every one to the figures you took for the first.
Door swing
Open each door fully after its piece goes on and check the hinge side and trailing edge.
Tools
For the regular cab with flares: tape measure, painter's tape and a marker to lay out, car soap and isopropyl alcohol with lint-free cloths to clean, a plastic trim tool for residue. Shade and mild, dry weather help.
Calling us
Have photos of the wheel openings and the whole side, plus the year and cab, ready. Keep the SKU and UPC below handy. If a piece doesn't match anything in the dry run, keep its liner on until we've talked.
After the first day, wash with mild soap and a soft towel; skip scouring pads.
We're happy to help.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Lower Kit
- Unpack all 10 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
