For helping keep this great
old truck web site

Do you have the truck frame accessible? There should be holes in the frame for the cross sills. A '55-'59 3100 is not what you are asking about... However, I have a 1955.2 and here's the factory assembly manual (FAM) page of a '55-'59 showing the cross sills. Again, I understand you are asking about a 1953, but maybe this will help (?).
