Crap, Spot Wielded, I have never done any wielding before is it hared? I found on LMC website that they sell new Pockets, but I'm not sure if the express bed is taller then the F1 bed. Or if they are the same height. I was tempted on buying them new (the 1950 style ones) but now Ill have to see...

True, good point, I guess I kind of answered my own question, LOL! I think I am leaning more toward having the curved ones I like how they look and gives it a little more detail I suppose I can always change them out to the straight ones later on. Except I'm not sure if they are wielded on, or...

Very True I just bought a 50 express bed but the pockets on the corners are shot and so is the tailgate. I looked on LMC and they sell pockets for both 48-50 and 51-52 but I'm not sure if the Express bed is taller then the F1 short bed. I know I should put the straight pockets on but I do...

Yeah I didn't know it was an F2, the guy that sold it to me said it was an F1, but after doing research and finding the plate hiding under dirt and paint, I found an F2 marking on it. Then later found that the truck was built here in Long Beach California, and used to haul metal from Huntington...

Awesome!!! Thank you. Here is a picture of the side of my bed. I looked at the pockets and they appear to be cut and I can see the tabs that would normally go inside them I think. Also what is an IH bed?

What are the measurements for the running boars length wise because I think mine area too long causing the gap between the bed and the cab to be to wide

Scotty's 52 F3, That looks awesome and I also noticed that your side panels have indents in them my current bed does not also my bed has the tops flatten not at a 45 degree is mine stock or standard?

Scotty's 52 F3, Thank you, Ill make sure to get lots of pictures if possible

I may have found a bed and tailgate up in Montana. I found him through craigslist he's asking $350 for the bed tailgate and one fender. He said there is some rust on the pockets and the tailgate is a little damaged, but the side and front panels are straight and in good condition. so I'm now if...
