Need Help 68 Dodge bed blocks

Post by gearwrencher »

I have a Dodge 1968 Power Wagon Utiline Bed. I need to know the dimensions of the wood blocks betwen bed and frame. does any one know? are all six blocks the same heigth? my orgional blocks have gone back in the earth and i have no reference to make new .I have just finished restoring the bed.Now is time to bolt to frame.I would like to keep the truck as stock as possible.
Thanks, Jerry

No, they are not the same size, and they arent even square. The one just before the hump in the frame is the oddest shape of them all.

I made my new ones out of teak (had some laying around for a carving project) and used my old ones, so no measurements for you.
