Hi, and thanks, My running boards are in bad shape too but I did see the patch for them how did it work out for You? There are alot of places out there to get parts I get the feeling that alot of guys use jim carter or is best to shop around , no one has USA built stuff ? Nice truck Czehman , Worked on mine fri, and sat , got the front off to the motor and gutted the cab just ordered the clutch head screw drivers to get the heater out , this is going to be alot of work .took pics of everthing coming out . Thanks Pete
