Title: Bed support channel, 2 sizes?
Post by: shpark2 on April 23, 2007, 03:43:44 pm

Between the wheel wells there are these short profile channels which rest on the axle hump for the rear end.  They are about 1.5" tall and 2" wide, there is 3 I think.  They are way shorter than the other ones where the bed bolts come through, I have been having a bugger of a time finding them anywhere.  I'm wondering if anyone has run across them while looking for bed parts?  I know I can get the tall ones from everywhere.  It's looking like it's easier to buy some low profile channel and forget OE style for something no one sees.

I use channel for both the short ones and box tube the tall ones.
