1963c-10 what else is there to the rear support brace. could you post pics? I didn't have one so I added angle iron to the bottom bolts on the carrier and under the rail. I think this carrier is off a fifties truck but fits in well.

1963c-10 · 03-21-2013, 08:40 AM

Heres some pics of the mount off the truck and a picture of it installed. Took some measurements too.

1963c-10 · 03-21-2013, 08:41 AM

And a few w/measurements

1963c-10 · 03-21-2013, 08:43 AM

WhippinSaw, let me know if this is what your after. If not, I can get more pics of what parts you may need.

Thanks You 1963c-10, this is the first time I have seen it. Does it connect to the carrier? What is its purpose? Do I need one? I have plenty of support on the carrier. Cheers!

WhippinSaw · 03-21-2013, 10:32 PM

OK, I should of asked if I already have one. I thought the piece was longer and ran down the rail. Since it didn't come with the carrier and is so far away from the carrier I never though it was part of it. Does it add rail support? The angle iron I added for the bottom of the support bracket was in place of the wear iron that came with the carrier but didn't fit. Am I missing anything else? I hope it doesn't fall off. Thanks 1963c-10 for helping me find the part I needed. lol

1963c-10 · 03-22-2013, 08:29 AM

It adds support to the top of the bed side to keep it from sagging. It looks to me like your is mounted solid. I don't think you"ll have any issues. There is also a small mount between the top of the fender and the bottom of the bed side (where it rolls), but with you having a long bed, you have an extra support there from the factory (visible in your 3rd pic just behind the tire over the fender). I beleive it was just added to the short beds since they didn't have this extra support on the bedside.

J.Cagle · 03-22-2013, 10:16 AM

Here's my 64. Someone has turned the spare tire mount slightly counter clockwise and remounted it. Im guessing they did it to mount a tool box or something across the bed.

J.Cagle · 03-22-2013, 10:17 AM

63c-10, what size tires are you running, and is your truck lowered?
