I just finished making my mounting blocks for my 52 Panel and they are wood. On mine there is also a rubber pad that goes on the bottom between the wood body mount block and the chassis. I also would suggest going to the forum (bed forum) where Mar-K is listed as they sell bed/wood kits. You may find something of value there. Good luck and perhaps someone working on your model will come along shortly. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 96 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2005 Posts: 96 | Good Evening Sooner,
Jim Carter should have a set. I sent him an old set from my '46 Suburban for patterns. I believe they should fit from 37 or so up through early '47 Panels and Suburbans. Good Luck hope this helps. Richard

However, Sooner, if you can find the dimensions you can make your own and for the rubber part between body and frame I use some old firehose pieces. A volunteer fire dept gave me quite a piece of old hose and it really works nicely. Theres other things to use as well but after all the work I noticed the price of a NEW set was really not that bad....but maybe the price plus shipping to where your at would run the price up to where you would wantg to make them... | | |
