Post by: crash14445 on September 12, 2006, 12:28:00 am

I own a 1979 gmc shortbox stepside, and am looking for any information on where I might be able to order replacment parts for the box.  They are all bolt on parts and mine are pretty rusted and rotten.  Any help would be awesome  Thanks

I got their catalogue, and for the two side panels its nine hundred bucks american, than with shipping it'll be a fortune.  Any places in Canada that anyone knows of.

Thanks

I need the side rails that the stepside mounts too, both my stepsides are in good shape but the part they bolt too is rotten right through

Have you tried local paper ads or craigslist.com?  I to had a northern stepside truck and i am basicially starting from scratch, even a new frame.So i feel your pain there.
