Bed Patch

[Husker]

My 64 Slick spent its life in Souther Cal and isn almost rust free. The only rust I have to fix is at the front of the box where water sat for some time. I see LMC has a box section but I would like to replace the entire box floor, any ideas where I can find the parts?

No complete floors for our trucks, have to do it in pieces, or find a donor truck , then you might as well just swap the whole bed.

Has anyone used the LMC bed patch?

I have not used the LMC bed patch. You can get bed floors for later model trucks that will fit. Not sure if all the brackets are the same. I repaired mine by using a portion of another bed floor. Usually if the floor is rusted the fron brace is rusted as well. The second brace on a long bed is the same as the front brace with the exception of the bolt hole re-enforcement. I cut a section with the second brace added the re-enforcements and welded it in.

I may order the panel and see how it looks.

Did the LMC bed floor patch panel (16" x 48"), match the 57-61 Styleside bed floor contours? Need to do some patching, and wondeing if this will fit my 62 project.

Thanks in Advance.
