I'm installing a bed on my 1941 3/4 ton, and I'm not sure where all the cross sills are supposed to be located. The 1st and 2nd sills counting from the front are pretty obvious because of the mounting holes in the frame. The 3rd and 4th sills are not as obvious. Could someone please give me either the measurement of these sills from the front panel, or since the sills match up with holes in the bed strips, give me the number of holes back from the front panel. I've looked on the Mar-K website and searched this forum with no luck. Thanks!

I will be able to measure on my 3/4 ton this weekend, if someone else hasn't given you an answer by then.

No problem, just PM me if you end up needing any measurements. I will be turning it into a shortbox within the next month or so though.
