Cross sill pic request
Does anyone have a decent picture of what they know to be an original '67-'72 Stepside rear cross sill?

Re: Cross sill pic request
Still can't see it but looking in the bed pics, is it the area just to the right (in the pic) of the bed bolt spacer? If so, maybe where the original liscense plate bracket went.

Re: Cross sill pic request
If it is bumper delete, it bolts to the bottom of the rear sill.

Re: Cross sill pic request
Could it be for a muffler/tailpipe hanger, only on drivers side...is there a prize if I get it right?

Re: Cross sill pic request
Your right woodridge the license plate bracket went there when no bumper was installed. Had some free time and looked thru my Factory Assembly Instruction Manual and found this page showing it.

Re: Cross sill pic request
I am not sure what it was meant for, but it is also present on the fleetside beds with wood bottoms. I know the little hole just above the kick out area in question is for a clip to hold the wiring in place. WES

Re: Cross sill pic request
My '86 has it also, liscense plate bracket with light. Never noticed it on my '70 short step.

Re: Cross sill pic request
I have seen a few with bumpers installed and the bracket still under the bed.

Re: Cross sill pic request
came up last night putting a stepper together for a local cop....even after a couple Buds we noticed the A/M rear cross and the original looked different. We couldn't find anything to bolt to it on his truck (except possibly a blue plastic "Saca De Toro") so we figured we'd try to find out what it is
