Sweet setup...what kind of slide out is that?
Marlon deck on new Super Duty
- Thread starter kylant
- Start date
It’s a Truckboss, Smartbox. I used to run the Truckboss deck and the smartbox works pretty slick with my Marlon, I had to get creative with the brackets for the box, but I ended up just bolting it directly to the Marlon base plates.
I just got off the phone with Putco. I am installing a 2020 Marlon explorer pro II on a 2024 F350 Lariat Ultimate with black appearance package (BAP). Supposedly (according to the web) LED all around with the BAP. edit: not the case on my 2024.
Marlon and Putco part number for Halogen tail lights: 529032M
Marlon and Putco part number for LED tail lights: 529026M
$90 including tax from Putco via phone. not available online.
$110 (Halogen) or $220 (LED) + tax and shipping from Marlon.
My next deck will not be a Marlon. It does not fit the ford well. The sides (when stowed) rubbed the outside of the bed on my 2017. Installed even higher this time so it will rub plastic instead. Gaps on sides and rear are obnoxiously high. If I end up keeping the deck I'll modify so it cannot close all the way. I'd then lower it as low as I could with some foam in gaps. I would also seal the deck to avoid the rainstorm below it that ensues on the regular from melting snow. Nothing about this deck is weatherproof. While we're at it I'll also mention the slides get stuck way too easy. I forgot to wash them out with a solvent before installing the deck this season.
ETA: Marlon prices
ETA: My 2024 Lariate w black appearance package does NOT have LED taillights. be sure to check yours before ordering.
