Product Description
Dodge Ram Quad Cab Short Bed (1998-2001) Full Rocker Kit, Molding to Door Bottom, 8.75", 12 Pieces (TH38928)
TH38928 covers the whole band below the molding on a 1998-2001 Dodge Ram Quad Cab short bed. The note reads "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door," and the width is 8.75". It's a twelve-piece Full Kit in polished stainless steel.
Full Kit vs Upper Kit
The short bed Upper Kit, TH38926, stops at 5.625" below the molding. This Full Kit carries on to the door bottom. If you want no paint showing between the steel and the bottom edge, this is the one. For the long bed, the matching Full Kit is TH38929 and the Upper Kit TH38927.
Check the measurement
A Full Kit has to fit the actual space on your doors. Measure from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of each door at the front and rear. Close to eight and three-quarter inches matches this record. Readings well off that mean a call to 877-752-3811 before you buy.
Polished 26 gauge 304
The twelve 8.75" Ram Quad Cab pieces are polished high-quality stainless steel made in the USA, mounted over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. QAA states it will hold for a lifetime without harming the Dodge.
Big pieces
Close to nine inches top to bottom means a large bonding area for every piece. Position carefully: top edge against the molding, bottom edge following the door. Once tape touches, it grabs, so dry-fit every piece with painter's tape first.
Applying a wide face
Peel a few inches of liner at one end and press. Then work across in short strokes with a plastic squeegee, pushing air toward the open end. A helper holding the far end off the paint prevents early contact.
Twelve pieces
The data doesn't map them. Sort with the photos, label the liners.
Prep the full band
- Wash and dry from molding to door bottom.
- Alcohol wipe.
- Repair chips at the door bottoms and any flaking paint.
- Re-secure loose molding.
Clearances
The steel reaches the door bottom, so open each door fully afterward and watch for contact at the sill.
Conditions
Dry, mild day, shade.
Care
Wait a day before washing the Ram; mild soap after.
Ram spacing
Copy measured positions across.
Before ordering
Confirm a 1998-2001 Ram Quad Cab with the short bed and take the molding-to-door-bottom measurement on both front and rear doors. If those match, this kit is the record's answer for full coverage. If the measurement differs between doors, send photos with your call so we can check.
Tools
Tape measure, painter's tape, a marker for the liners, car soap, isopropyl alcohol, lint-free towels, a plastic squeegee and ideally a second pair of hands.
Why full coverage
With a Full Kit, the steel's lower edge meets the door bottom, so there's no strip of paint left between the trim and the edge. That also means the door bottoms must be sound, which is why the prep list starts there. Questions: 877-752-3811.

Installation tips: Rocker Panel Trim, Full Kit
- Unpack all 12 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.
