Real hard to tell much from that pic. ohwell

Can you take some more pics from different angles? That might help.

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

Rust,

There is most likely still a makers plate attached to it somewhere that may offer clues.

Otherwise as Kevin mentioned, we need lots more pics to try and help figure it out.

I’d be willing to bet the missing cover on the front would have clues as to what it is.

It is some mickey mouse after market mess. Not from the factory that built the truck, and very likely they poked the holes for mounting and piping. I call it a mess.


Kicking self for selling off my Taskforce trucks.
Still looking for an LCF or conventional big bolt in decent shape.


As of 10-26-2022, A 55.2 Taskforce long bed now the work begins
