This is what I was looking for! Thanks....

Any one suggest were to get the stepside bumpers. As you can see the one on my truck should be on a fleetside.

I believe this is 15x10 front and rear. It has been too long since I have messed with this truck. Setting in storage for available funds.

Re: How about some photos of 73 to 87 stepsides

Thanks for the tire specs. I am going for a 275 rear and probably a 255 front. Trying to stick them on the rims I have but not sure the width.
