Bought a '33 bed, needs me to shorten it 5 1/8" front and 6" rear … found 1 repop rear stake pocket, need another and 1 front, plus 2 floor patches... . . . where do you guys get them ? glanced at Howell, didn't even try to call... didn't see any in mac's ? .
I got mine from Dennis Carpenter in Charlotte NC but I heard he stopped re popping them. Might contact him and see.
I would, but the pockets are twisted, dented and rotted through... bought 1 rear repop... then a crude $12.00 one that may patch the bottom 4" or so... still need a front pocket, a head board, floor pan and a tail gate... local tin around here is pretty rusty if I even find any...
I got the wrong year pocket myself from macs https://www.macsautoparts.com/early...t-or-rear-1-2-ton-only-ford-pickup-truck.html Reworked them to fit Flattened out and holes punched for the rivets I also "bobbed" my bed to make it look more uniform length Here is the correct link for your pockets.. If I looked a few minutes longer and fitment I may have saved myself some time. https://www.macsautoparts.com/early...front-steel-die-formed-ford-pickup-truck.html .
Front panel https://www.macsautoparts.com/early...wide-die-stamped-steel-ford-pickup-truck.html And the floor https://www.macsautoparts.com/early...eel-no-hardware-ford-pickup-truck-440362.html I am on the CHEAP and will be doing a wood floor,
Jefferson, Me. … I think... he delivered ?... yard-dog, is your front stake pocket a rear ? … my fronts sort of angle back half way down towards the bed... I want to order the right stuff...thanks !
Hey Sloppy... No I did get front pockets but again wrong year, Didn't want to send back so I made them fit. Well shit, The links don't work correctly. But macs does have the correct stake pockets and panels that you need. Just don't be a bone head like I was and get wrong year LOL Check fitment pockets are 32-4 front panel 33-4 and floor 33-4
Here is the pocket # you need 47-23992-1 Front panel 47-12080-1 Floor 47-66122-1 Since the links don't work
Bummer... my home made cab is only 48" wide [stock 51ish"] the '33 bed sides are 46" wide … top flanges are 52.5' at the widest... . the stake pockets show from head on... don't like it... ton of work to narrow and shorten it twice... . my '32 frame is 42.125" wide at the cab back... model a bed skins are 40 .6" apart... the lower outer mounting flange is 43.6"... an A bed might just work as the mounting flange should hide the frame... more tape measure and phone time ahead...
