Re: Danny Boy is BAACK! w/ '55 Big Window
July 28, 2016
Can anyone tell me which of these holes I need to keep for the stock tailgate and stock tail light mounting? I want to fill all unused holes and I can't remember! ![]() It SEEMS like the three holes above the two lowest ones in the first picture are factory, but if so what were they for? On the lower photo, it again seems like the three holes above the larger, main tailgate pivot are factory, but why do I need them? ![]() ![]() Any/all help appreciated. Thanks, Dan Status Update for the Record The painter has completed all repair work on the bed sides and we met to finalize locations to be drilled to mount the angle strips on the bedside so that holes will be primed. We counted six locations for bolts into bedsides. One in each stake pocket and the other four will be hidden by the fender later. This leaves one angle strip hole NOT having a corresponding bolt through the bedside - which is fine because I will never carry any significant weight in the bed and I don't want a visible bolt/nut through the beside exterior.
