I've got a ba falcon ute obviously comes with the aluminium tray just wonder if it's at all probably with not a great deal of hassle to switch from the drop side tray to the style side tray and also where I would possibly find a replacement tray I've rung a few wreckers but they have just laughed said I'd have a great deal of trouble finding the tray, would any other style side tray fit/ and look like it belongs on the ute or is BA or nothing

any help would be greatly appreciated

thank you

They're just a straight swap over, should be able to do it yourself if a couple of blokes to help with lifting. Best bet is wreckers or ebay theres usually some on there. AU,BA,BF are all the same fit though the AU has different side moulds and I think skirts aswell but the tub is the same and the only difference between the BA and BF is the reverse light is in the lower bumper on the BA (& the AU) and its in the tail lights on the BF but the actual tub itself is the same on all 3

The reverse light thing was only on the very early BAs...must have just kept going till they ran out of AU parts. My first ute was Oct 03 (I think) and it had the reverse lights in the tail light assembly thingos.

You'd think there would be a few around from people buying XRs or FPVs wanting tray backs as I believe they cannot be optioned without the style-side :dontknow: But yeah otherwise just keep your eye on ebay or trading post etc.

Have been told that the AU/BA tail lights without the reverse light are actually the F truck tail lights from america and they changed shape for the new model f truck just before BAII sometime I think so they got changed here as the new ones didn't fit. You can also get LED tail lights from america that dont have the reverse light in them so they would only work with the reverse light in the bumper unless you dont want a reverse light

Hi there, I am thinking about doing the reverse to you! Did you get the ute back that you were looking for?
