Oddly enough this bed came off a 1990 GMC/Isuzu truck but i sure am happy about the condition. http://good-times.webshots.com/album/570393729TjqFHl | | | | | Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 28 Apprentice | | Apprentice Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 28 | Hey, that looks like it will fit great! Does it have metal decking? I was going to swap out my wooden bed for a metal one so as not to destroy the good original with with use. But now I'm just selling the whole truck, which is a bummer. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 92 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 92 |

It appears that the tires are very close to hitting the bottom of the floor and with any load they would hit. Then again maybe your just using it for parades. | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 323 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: May 2005 Posts: 323 | probably will be a 4x4. I have to do some modifcation as the frame rails are wider on my 56 than the new bed sills | | |
