Also, will the bed support cross rails from the 54 1/2 work on the earlier 3/4?
What are the dimensions of the wood blocks that support the cross sills?
Thanks!

I am working on a 47, but have cross sills from a 54, so I am wondering if they will work. What were the size of the blocks on the earlier years (of AD)? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2016 Posts: 338 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2016 Posts: 338 | tclederman, is there a way to get that manual printed out?
