Prior to that from 60 to 69 or 70 it has a manual box with a power assist ram. Prior to 55.2 to 59 was inside the rail and 47.2 to 55.1 was on top of the rail | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,274 Renaissance Man | | Renaissance Man Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 10,274 | for trucks up to 1 ton , 1971 or 1972 was the first year that an integral power box was on the outside rail.
