In search of.....

I am trying to locate a pair of step braces for the bed of my 66 short wheelbase Flareside. They are the ones that go beneath the step between the cab and fenders. (Just in case I have them named incorrectly.) Does anyone have or know where I might purchase a set? Any suppliers sell these?

Which side? Right (passenger) side different than left (drivers) side.

Does anyone have or know where I might purchase a set? Any suppliers sell these?
Applications: 1957/66 F100/350 Flareside / 1967/72 F100/250 Flareside / Bed length makes no difference

2) B7C-16462-A .. Right "L" shaped Running Board (step) Bracket (brace)-in front of rear fender / Obsolete

No Ford Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

2) B7C-16463-A .. Left "L" shaped Running Board (step) Bracket (brace)-in front of rear fender / Obsolete

JST AUTOMOTIVE in Lebanon TN has 1 = 615-443-3086 / No Ford Dealer, no other obsolete parts vendor has any.

Mar-K (mar-k.com) located in OKC reproduces Flareside beds and individual parts for them.

Thanks NumberDummy
I figured if anyone would know it would be you. I assumed the brackets could be bought in pairs. One for the right and one for the left. I could get by with just finding one for the right since the PO replaced the rusted out right one with angle iron. No pick and pulls in my area have Ford trucks of that vintage on their yards. Most have been crushed. I will try Mar-k and see if I can order one from them.
Thanks again for the info.
