Product Description
Ford Ranger Regular Cab Long Bed, No Flares (1998-2012): 6" Lower Rocker Kit, 10 Pieces (TH38323)
TH38323 fits the 1998-2012 Ford Ranger regular cab with the long bed and no flares. That's the tag word for word: "Regular Cab, Long Bed, NO Flares." The kit is ten pieces of polished stainless steel, a Lower Kit 6" tall, running "from the bottom of the door UP to the specified width."
A twin record
Here's something you should know before ordering. The linked TH38328 shows exactly the same data: ten pieces, 6", Lower Kit, same placement note and the same "Regular Cab, Long Bed, NO Flares" tag. Nothing in the two records tells them apart. The record doesn't say how they differ. Rather than guess, call 877-752-3811 before you buy, and we'll tell you which one to order for your truck.
The XLT Full Kits
Two more Ranger kits are linked, both Full Kits 8.5" tall from the molding to the door bottom: TH38325 (XLT, short bed) and TH38326 (XLT, short bed, with flares). Those suit a short bed with molding; this kit is for the long bed.
Six inches up
The steel's lower edge follows the bottom of the door and rises six inches. Mark that height with painter's tape on your door to see the look first.
Steel and tape
The regular cab Ranger's ten pieces are USA-made polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel. They attach on top of the existing finish with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, which QAA states will hold for a lifetime without harming the paint.
Ten pieces, two doors
The record doesn't assign positions, so lean on the product photos. Number the liners front to rear.
Prep checklist
- Inspect door bottoms for chips or rust and repair them.
- Wash and dry the lower body.
- Wipe the Ranger with isopropyl alcohol.
Applying
Dry-fit with painter's tape. Peel a few inches of liner, press the end, then keep pressing as the liner comes away. Firm hand pressure over each finished piece.
Wheel openings
This Ranger listing says NO Flares, so the end pieces beside each wheel opening rest directly on the body panel; check that each one lies flat before pressing it down.
After
Swing both doors. Wait a day before washing, then mild soap.
Matching
Measure each piece's position from the door edges and copy it across.
Supplies
Tape measure, painter's tape, marker, car soap, alcohol, lint-free towels. Work on a dry, mild day.
Before you order
Confirm the year falls in 1998-2012, the cab is the regular one, the bed is long and there are no flares at the wheel openings. Then call about the twin record so we can point you to the right SKU. Have a side photo and the year ready.
Keeping a straight line
With the steel anchored at the door bottom, the top edge only looks straight if every piece starts exactly on that edge. Check each one with a tape measure at both ends, then sight down the truck from the front bumper before pressing it home.

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.
