Just off hand - when building the bed, theres the rear cross sill that goes under the tailgate and then how many more "highway signpost" looking cross sills under the rest of the bed? What goes under the box front?

Thanks for the help.

Scott, go to the Mar-K website. I do not think you can go wrong with their parts and information.

That's what I used under the bed of my '66. Signposts, I just had to shim them up 3/4 inch.

Do you know how many you used? And what goes under the front of the bed? You would think a guy would take pictures of this stuff when I took it apart....nah..."That's easy, I can remember that!" haha.

I'd have to go count, but I'm sure your '50 bed would be different from a '66, the truck is put away in a shed out in the country for the winter.

Scott - I think all the beds have the rear sill, 2 main sills with a thinner 'partial' one between, and the front metal panel has a flange on the bottom that the wood sits on/ bolts to - here\'s the wood info , and the MarK catalog has a picture
