Dennis_MN Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 After seeing the photos of Reg's new Spare mount, I noticed the missing covers over the back spring shackle. When Merle was at the Mopars in the Park show, we noticed that his big box was wider and didn't have the covers, while the shorter box from 51 on had the area covered by stamped into the side panels. So here are pictures of various boxes with the covers over the shackle. Quote
Reg Evans Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 Yeah, mine apparently never had any. No holes drilled anyway. If you remove your cover does the opening have a lip around the opening like mine? I posted this question here years ago but never got any responses. Quote
Mick Blake Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 The picture of the yellow box side does not look like the other sides, look after market,any I have seen have the covers. Quote
Reg Evans Posted July 17, 2009 Report Posted July 17, 2009 The yellow truck is mine and has the optional low side box. It's not after market but it is the same box as used in the 40's. Quote
Dale Uhrich Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 i have a few high side boxes. the earliest ones have the cover as part of the box and is not removable. the later ones unbolt Quote
Vintrader Posted July 19, 2009 Report Posted July 19, 2009 Reg, here is a pic of the 51 Express low box that sold in AZ a few weeks back. No Covers. Dutch Quote
