I’m currently finally putting my truck together. Working on the interior after getting my bench in I noticed several holes under the dash. They look to be original but not sure what they’re for. Including pictures.

On I side note I got the side trim for the bench seat. Any help with screw size to mount these?

I can't prove it, but I think some of those holes are for aligning the parts for spot welding on the assembly line. I think the two larger ones in your first pic would qualify for that. To the far left would be for the bracket for the parking brake release rod.

I think the seat skirts use #8 sheet metal screws.

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

Thanks everyone. Just making sure I wasn’t missing a brace or anything critical. I removed everything to paint and powder coat and now I just want to get it together. The extra holes from factory makes sense.
Thanks again
Daniel
