Stake holes question
The stake holes in the bed sides on the '51 were welded over by the PO. I want to open them back up, could someone please post the correct dimensions.
Thanks, Don |

Re: Stake holes question
I don't have the dimensions, the bed is in the body shop right now but here are my layout lines for when I cut mine in after shortening my bed.
Then the bottom corners need to be rounded off.

Re: Stake holes question
4"x6" ? no not really. Was able to figure the dimensions out and cut them back in as they were. Post will now sit straight within the pockets.
Thanks, Don |
