55.2-59 Stake pocket welded to bed rail

[Dave Garon]

Thanks for the feedback guys. I had a look at a couple other trucks last night. Both were finished 60's stepsides and had the weld. Pretty sure it's factory, mine was just redone VERY badly. I'll clean it it with a die grinder, run another pass if needed.
We've mounted the 56 on a shortened 2006 chevy 4x4 chassis. Still lots to do, but slowly making progress.
