| | THANKS!
For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | If I remember right the '54 bed is deeper because the kickup over the rear axle is lower on a '54 than the earlier trucks. So a '53 bed should easily clear the kickup...
The length is also a little different.
I think you can do it. I'm not as sure why you would want to. Anyone knowledgable looking at it will immedately know its the wrong bed. Any stepside bed starting in '54 and at least 20 years, is the same design. You might find it easier to look a little broader, and then move the fenders from the '53 bed to your new bed.
