Hey buddy .. what are your plans for tail lights on your stepper? Just stock ones? I'm thinking about trying to come up with something billet. Maybe re-make the factory brackets in Billet and just pull them in a little closer to the bedsides? More flush and/or a single bracket for both the tail and backup lights?

.. just curious what you were planning for this one.
thanks.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 
Raull,... are you using any "vertical" supports under those beam mounts?
Or are the beam brackets just anchored to the outside wall?

raull 02-21-2012 01:58 PM

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 
solid cement area at the top , we build two 16in wide by 10 in high by 1/2 inch thick plates and used 4 1/2 inch bolts all the way trough the outside of the wall on both sides , the beam its a 6 inch tall , the main area where one should worry is at the middle , so we welded a 1inch thread adapter in the middle for a center support just in case , dont need it but we just like to be safe than sorry , ill post some more pix as we go

Looking really good. As someone with a stepper, trying to sort thru what I need to fit wide wheels in the rear. I forget, did you shorten the rear end and cut the bed insides for tubs?

hello leon , i just went with some cookie cuters 265's for now but if i ever go wider i would cut bed panels and use some factory fleetside tubs and cut them to my specs.
