[QUOTE="doctorjj, post: 2775215, member: 7292"] Dennis, think about this for a minute. How many aluminum flatbeds have you seen? How about aluminum stock trailers and horse trailers? How many of those have melted down around the steel springs and steel spring shackles that were "contaminating" them? ZERO!!! Is galvanic corrosion real? Of course. Is it a concern in this application? No. Not at all. Thinking that screwing a couple holes into your bed with steel screws will cause your entire bed to disintegrate and eat itself up is idiocy. How many aluminum tool boxes have you seen that have melted down due to galvanic corrosion from sitting on a steel pickup truck bed? NONE! EVER!! You know what I have seen? I've seen a lot of rusted out steel trucks and rusted out steel stock trailers. I'll take aluminum with its possible galvanic corrosion over steel with regular old red rust any day. [/QUOTE]
