Styleside or Flareside? On the Styleside Ford only sold the front crossmember and rear sill separately. The only way you could get new ones from Ford was to buy the bed floor. I don't know of anyone that reproduces the middle crossembers.
On the Flareside they are reproduced and suppliers like LMC and Dennis Carpenter can supply them.
As for something else from the aftermarket, maybe you could adapt something like this:
