bedside tool box hinges
 
I have had these reproduced and they are great. Looks like none have been available since about 2016. I needed some but to get them done right I had to have them reverse engineered and buy a bunch to try and hold the cost down. I will be pricing them at $95 per set of three. Price includes shipping to the lower 48. If you are out of the country we'll have to calculate shipping.

This was a rare option on these trucks and restoring them is tough. Hope this helps.

Are they steel or stainless?

Re: bedside tool box hinges
 
They are steel, just like the originals.

How can I purchase a set??

Papa Smurf 09-02-2024 09:30 AM

Re: bedside tool box hinges
 
Thanks for the reply.

I am asking that people send a money order for $95, along with your address, to:

Roy M. Akin
302 VZCR 4816
Ben Wheeler, TX
75754

As soon as I receive the money order I will ship(within 1-2 days)

If you prefer PayPal I will need an additional $5 to cover PayPal fees. This will allow earlier shipping.

Good talking with you Friday.

I sent the Money order shortly after our conversation.

I will post pictures after I get them.

Thanks for your contribution of making these:metal:

This keeps the Bedside Toolbox operational for the ones that have this option.

Here are some pictures for possible future customers of Roy.

I had a great conversation with Roy when ordering these hinges.

I told Roy I would post pictures.:chevy::chevy::chevy:

So here are pictures and Comparisions to an old original hinge.
This Original hinge was (Really) bent. ;)

Then the straightening;) of the bent (original) hinge against the Real deal Toolbox door 2 pictures will be in the next post.

Wondering if these hinges are still available ?

Ochre Ogre 11-17-2025 12:02 PM

Re: bedside tool box hinges
 
Can anyone advise what the correct size is for the hardware? Machine screws and the screws to hold the fiberglass box into the bedside? Also any suggestions on what to use for the gasket?
Thank you

RPrice 11-17-2025 12:59 PM

Re: bedside tool box hinges
 
I was just thinking the same thing. I did get hinges from PAPA Smurf and they are an exact duplicate for the originals.
