Is this a lower cab corner?
 
Hey guys..

Quick question...

I have a picture for you to look at... The picture (If you standing behind the truck) Of the right bed cut out.

If you notice there is a alot of rust under the bed in that corner, The part rusted out is that the cab corner?

I don't want to order one and it not be a cab corner.
I did notice if you look up in that area you see the hose going to the fuel tank.


Thanks in advance!

Unis have no lower cab corners.

It is all boxed in along with the torque box. Yours appears to be missing due to cancer.

Page 14-15 Figure 5 in the 61 factory shop manual has a pretty good representation of what is supposed to be there.

Purchase a manual or a body assembly book as a guide. You need to replace all the reinforcement that is missing.
