Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

NF65fleetside,

They seemed to be a westcoast option or even midwest, becausue a lot of the truck were used heavily in farming, which makes sense. I'll assume they came chromed from the factory (which makes since as a trim option) IF I use mine I'll need to get them chromed. But I weight about 250 dressed out, so even if I install them, I would be afraid to use them, I would at least put another fender brace under neither the sidewall incase.

Here are pictures of mine.

Re: How about some pics of 60-66 Trucks

I second that. The steps are mounted in a perfect position, just under the fender brace, making them quite rigid and sturdy. i weight 200 and they dont even flex when i hop on them.


I have em on each side, and although i personally would never have mounted them myself, as large a farming community as idaho is, i can see the reason why they were added. they are priceless for those whose trucks are work trucks.
