Stepside steps brackets?

[54belair]

I took some pics of mine.

This is the right side step and bracket. Im not sure if anyone makes them (Im guessing not). As you can see the rear of the step connects to the fender and the Bracket goes under the step in the front . the bracket is attached to the bedside at the top.(actually its been almost 4 years since I took mine off----it might be the cross sill that they attach to at the top-----Ill find out before long!!)

Those brackets might be the kind of thing that could be found on craigslist-----Im not sure Ive ever seen any advertised but ya never know. I do a nationwide search for stuff sometimes and come up with things that aren't around here. Might have to pay shipping but-----if you can find them------

Did your step get dropped at some point? That entire flange should be at 90* to the bedside. You're going to have some difficulty bolting that back up without damaging the paint

Best pics I could find of mine:

LMC and The Filling Station both sell the repop steps but not the brace. Just FYI

Like said nobody does the brace YET Tim [forum name Tim Christian]is high up at KEY parts and they are the ones doing the step bracket. I was just fortunate enough to see the post about stepside brackets and a guy was looking for some and Tim said that there were not being reproduced. Then he said if some one had a set that was good they didn't need at the moment he could have them made. So I sent him a PM then a day or two later I had boxed up the steps and off to be copied they were. After those hit the stores I'll probably crack a smile every time I see them in the catalogs. Jim

This step has already been replaced--it had a dent in the outside edge that I didn't get completely out----didn't really see how bad it was till after paint. A guy locally had a step bed for sale cheap with excellent steps, so now I have a spare bed that's going to have one shiny red step on it!!
