Product Description
Dodge Ram Quad Cab Short Bed 2002-2008 w/ Molding: 12-Piece Full Rocker Kit, 8" (TH42935)
TH42935 is listed for the 2002-2008 Dodge Ram Quad Cab short bed with side molding: "4-door, Pickup Truck, Quad Cab, Short Bed, w/ Molding." It's a Full Kit of twelve polished stainless steel pieces, 8" wide, filling the band the note describes: "Spans from the bottom of the molding to the bottom of the door."
No 1500 on the Quad Cab tags
The four regular cab kits in this group name the 1500. The four Quad Cab kits, this one included, don't name any load rating. The data doesn't say whether that's deliberate. If your Quad Cab is a heavier-duty model, mention it when you call 877-752-3811 so we can confirm the fit.
Choosing within the Quad Cab kits
- Short bed: TH42935 (this one, w/ Molding, 8") or TH42936 (10.5").
- Long bed: TH42937 (w/ Molding, 8") or TH42938 (10.5").
All four are twelve pieces. The regular cab versions, TH42931 to TH42934, are ten.
Door handle covers: keyhole count
Two door handle cover kits are linked and both are tagged four-door, eight pieces each. DH42935 has "W/1 keyhole for driver front door"; DH42936 has "W/2 keyhole for driver & passenger front doors." Look at your front door handles and count the keyholes before choosing one. Their finish details are on their own pages.
Material
These twelve 8" Ram Quad Cab pieces are high-quality polished 26 gauge 304 stainless steel from a USA shop, mounted over the existing surface with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape. According to QAA, that tape will hold for a lifetime without harming the Dodge.
Measure first
From the bottom of the molding to the bottom of each door, check that you have about eight inches. If not, call before ordering; the 10.5" kits are the group's other option.
Molding check
Every piece meets the molding along its top edge. Walk around the truck and secure or replace any loose or damaged molding sections first.
Prep
Wash all four doors, rinse and dry. Wipe the band with isopropyl alcohol and repair chips.
Twelve pieces, organized
The record doesn't describe a layout. Match pieces to the product photos and number every liner. Dry-fit a run with painter's tape before peeling.
Install
Peel a few inches of liner, align the piece in the band, and press along while peeling the rest. Finish with firm pressure.
Finish
Open all four Ram doors to check clearance, sight down the rockers, and wait a day before washing.
Matching the sides
With several door gaps to line up, measure each piece end from its door gap and carry those numbers through.
A helper
A second person holding the far end of each piece off the paint keeps the tape clean and the edges tight between the molding and the door bottom.
Conditions
Dry, mild weather or a garage. Let cold steel warm before peeling, and keep the job out of direct midday sun.

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.
