what happens if you don't have them? I don't think that earlier trucks had them....

That piece bolts to the front cab support. It provides a stable mounting point for the bottom of the front fender. If you don't have them, I would recommend finding some since that new piece is pretty thin.

Edit: Here's a better picture.

my67chevytruck · 02-11-2009, 11:15 AM

if it wasnt for this thread i would not have known about it, as the 67, and the '72 parts truck did not have this... Maybe wes from classic , or John from Tri-plus will chime in.

msgross · 02-11-2009, 11:22 AM

I'm just gonna use the old parts that I cut off to use as a backing then. You could buy another set of A-pillars and make a set...

Green Machine · 02-11-2009, 11:57 AM

Someone should have a pair from an old cab, I needed just 1, our cab was missing one, got one from a member here.

**thelonerife** · 02-11-2009, 12:12 PM

I think I have two. 12.00 shipped. My paypal is crrife@bellsouth.net

67mater · 02-11-2009, 12:42 PM

be aware the part discussed is different from the patch panels pictured. the bolt on part is very thick and sits in the craddle of the patch panel, and that lower pillar patch is sheetmetal. I ended up fabricating a second one for my 4x4 as one was gone. It's for reinforcement, but is about 1/16" thick

Redden05 · 02-11-2009, 01:44 PM

Hey thelonerife, if Ram-Man dosent want them, I will take them.

jb4short · 02-11-2009, 02:01 PM

I haven't seen them made. Just bought a sample from ECE to see what's involved.

We have the '60-'66 that are much more complicated. Three holes, nuts welded on, etc.

my67chevytruck · 02-11-2009, 04:17 PM

hmm, u can have them in production tomorrow right.....

I'll check them out

**thelonerife** · 02-11-2009, 11:47 PM

Upon closer inspection mine are not so good. good rust on one and a hole rusted on the other. sorry. teeitup might have some.

Gillnetter · 02-12-2009, 12:14 AM

I am surprised nobody reproduces these.I had to rebuild mine.Most people don't know what they are unless you have worked on your lower "A" pillar.

Gillnetter · 02-12-2009, 12:17 AM

Is there a difference between the left and the right one?

**thelonerife** · 02-12-2009, 12:18 AM

They are also different from each other (side specific)The large part thats recessed for the bolt is angled
