Product Description
2002-2008 Dodge Ram 1500 Regular Cab Short Bed: 10.5" Full Rocker Kit, 10 Pieces (TH42932)
TH42932 is the wider of the two regular cab short bed kits for the 2002-2008 Dodge Ram. The fitment tag is "2-door, Pickup Truck, 1500, Regular Cab, Short Bed," and the kit is ten pieces of polished stainless steel at 10.5", filed as a Full Kit with the note "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door."
A tag and a note that don't quite match
Here's the detail to think about. Its twin, TH42931, is tagged "w/ Molding" and is 8" wide. This record has no molding tag, yet its note still describes the band as starting at the bottom of the molding. The data doesn't say whether the 10.5" kit is meant for trucks without molding, trucks with a different molding, or something else. So please measure before ordering: from the bottom of the molding (if there is one) to the bottom of the door, or the full height of the area you want covered if there isn't. Then call 877-752-3811 with the number and a side photo, and we'll confirm whether this kit or TH42931 fits.
The rest of the group

Built from
The ten 1500 Regular Cab short bed pieces are polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel produced in the USA, mounted between the molding and door bottom with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape over the existing surface. QAA states the tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Ram.
Ten and a half inches of steel
That's a tall band. Mark it with painter's tape on one door and step back to see how much of the door it covers.
Linked accessories
The sheet lists PP42934 (two-piece pillar posts, two-door), PP42935 (four-piece pillar posts), MC42935 (two-piece mirror covers), GC42935 (gas door cover trim) and DH42938 (two-piece tailgate handle cover kit). Finishes are on each listing.
Clean and inspect
With this much coverage, look over the whole lower door in raking light. Fix dents and chips, then wash, dry and alcohol-wipe the band.
Installing
Sort the ten pieces against the photos and mark each liner. Tape them in place dry. Then set each piece, peeling the liner a few inches at a time and pressing along. Finish with firm pressure.
Check
Open both Ram doors fully, sight down the rockers, and give it a day before washing.
Ram door-gap spacing
Fit a run, measure each piece end from the door gap and wheel openings, and repeat those positions for the rest.
Working conditions
Choose a dry day with mild temperatures, or work under cover. Cold steel and paint slow the bond, so let both warm before you peel the first liner.
What to send
Your measurement, a full-side photo, and a close-up of where the molding meets the door.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full 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.
