Since some recent bed rail talk has been going around I managed to get a new diagram. Yes it says 1980 but 73-79 are the same. This one below for a 6" Styleside (shortbed). The long bed set has the middle bracket that goes INSIDE the stake pocket like the front and rear ones. And yes I even have a set of these along with 2 sets of the long bed ones. I sold my 3rd set of LB ones to a fellow FTE member.

Thanks to a fellow FTE member.

 

I had to post this great read, lots of information, yes it is long (but very informative). It is from the 80-86 Forum.

And How To's worth checking out. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum261/

Ford digitized over 5,000 documents spanning 100 years of its operation. Available on the searchable Ford Heritage Vault website, these documents range from car images to relatively obscure optional equipment brochures. Say, if you wanted to see the brochure for your rare accessory steering wheel, a few keystrokes into the search bar on the Ford Heritage Vault site will produce the entire brochure for your reading pleasure.

You might expect the folks at Ford to throw this behind some obscene subscription service, or lock documents behind a paywall—this work wasn’t free, after all. Well, there’s even better news: It might be hard to imagine, but all of these documents, and the website that hosts them, are available free of charge.
