Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 341 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 341 | I need new Truck Angle Bed Strips for my shortbox stepside. I believe the bed is from an early 60's chevy but don't know the exact year. Is there a way I can figure this out because I want to make sure I order the correct angle bed strips. I know the box didn't come from a 55.2 or 56, which my truck is a 56 and I had to have a guy make it fit on my 56. If there isn't a difference, then great, but again just want to make sure. Thanks for the help! | | | | | Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 | Give Mar-K a call 844-627-5844. They are experts on truck beds and very helpful.

They are going to ask. They may request photos. Good folks and if they can they will help you. ðŸ›

How are you going to attach angle strips to the bed sides? The angles are sold punched or not punched. Seems like you want punched. Then drill holes for side mounting and drill wood to match punched square holes. I think the only difference in 55-59 and 60-66 are the holes but that may not matter depending on what you have that is already drilled or not. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 341 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 341 | OK thanks guys, this helps a bunch. | | |
