More 52 F-3 bed questions
I have a '52 F-3 that is in need of some repair on the bed rails and stake pockets (among other things). I noticed that the stake pockets are curved like the 48 - 50's? Does anyone know if I can use the 48-50 F1 stake pockets on my F-3? I have been looking for good replacement unit, but they seem to be hard to come by, or they are in "God's country" which is a killer for freight shipping to the east coast...
Thanks,

They look the same as F-1s, but are taller for certain and probably wider than the half ton pieces. Nobody makes them, nor does anyone make patch panels. There was a thread long ago, by Bob Jones IIRC, where he fab'd his own patch panels. Maybe he'll drop by and comment. Stu
