Thanks Joe, is your bed original? I replaced mine with a 47 Chevy box back in 1981, 88.5” long, and now want to replace with the original size.

Yes it is, and pretty well beat up. It will take a lot of work to make it look good again. I am also looking for another box, and it will be tough to find another long box around here.

Hello again Joe, I would like to ask if you could count the leaves in your front springs of your 1940 AC150?
Mine has 8, I need to replace and see for 1940 there is 7 on the new ones and 8 for the 1941.

I'd suggest posting your question in the driveline forum. Someone who's more active will be able to help you.
Your follow-on question is on a completely different topic than your original post.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
