looking for a new roll pan....anyone?

need new roll pans on 3 of my trucks...anyone make them? help....thanks in advance

nobody makes a replacement panel for the roll pan on the econo. its one of many that sadly arent available. theres gangloads of people that offer universal ones that could very well be used....but in my opinion, if youve got the resources to do what it takes to make one of those fit to be used....you probably could fix whatever it is thats wrong with yours. hehe. some previous owner of mine must have bumped into something dead center in that fancy area around my license plate as well as fifty years of rot around the bumper holes.....so what i did was cut the whole thing off the van, beat that area into submission around the plate to damn near perfection with a hammer and dolly, then welded in two panels i had louvered removing the rot and the factory holes. then rewelded the entire area....back in. youve got options if youve got the resources. plus a junkyard donor may be another option. good luck!

heres a motherload of rollpans that could be altered to fit.

I made punches and dies and formed my own. I wanted to delete the bumper bracket holes anyway. I reused as much of the original plate opening as I could.

Dennis at D and D makes them for our Econos. I had samples of the 2 styles at Bakers last year. He makes them totally smooth or with a license plate cutout in the center. I believe they were $150 and $165 respectively.

Hey Tim if you can find and post a link that would be very helpful. For the time I spent, on my van, $165 is a deal!

Thanks Vanish!

easy to make, here is mine. I am using a flip down bracket for the license plate and have my gas filler behind the plate.

Yeah! I installed one of these last year. Great fit and a good buy.

Stu can u post a pic of it for the good folks here please

Here they are. I bought the smooth one from Tim.

Looks good,thx for the pics. I still have the other one here with the license cutout in it.

You can contact me at dennisf@peak.org or call me at 541-760-2432 for any further info on the roll pans or accessories.
Thanks

Not to dig up a dead post but is there someone else runnin DD? Someone by the name of Tanner? I tried to order a roll pan which he says he has but he is impossible to deal with! He finally told me what shipping was and I reassured him I wanted it but never heard back....

Yes, Tanner is Bill's son. Bill owns the fab shop. Tanner works full time and reportedly has been having a tough time keeping up the D and D side business. I've talked with him but apparently nothings changed.

Ok man thanks. I feel like Im waving $20s at him but he hates me lol. That sucks

He's just having a hard time doing both. When Dennis and/or Dean owned it, it ran much smoother.

FWIW, I cut a cross section of what was left of my roll pan and had a local fab shop make one - five feet in length total. It only cost me $80. Turns out the guy knew exactly what it came from. I was a surprised because of the size of their operation, but overgrown in brush on their property were 3 Econoline pickups. Had no one told you they were there, it just looked like a big pile of brush.

I'd love to of gotten my hands on one of those pickups lol. But anyway thanks for the advice and info.

But I still don't get why he wouldnt sell the part if he has it. Id of cut him the Paypal money right then lolol

Ok I just got a response.
