tom'sB2B Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 I'm thinking about welding together a ladder rack for my B2B and was wondering if anyone had photos of one from the 50's. I would like to get it to look close to what someone would have back then. If anyone in the bay area has one to sell, that would be cool too. Quote
MBF Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 I don't have any pictures, but a 52 1/2 ton parts truck I have had one. The previous owner stuck pipes in all 4 stake pockets, and welded a 2" angle iron between the 2 front, and 2 rear verticals. He gusseted them at the top for added strength. The height of the horizontal pieces was just above the peak of the cab. Mike Quote
Reg Evans Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 Here's one I have available for a tall sided box. I sold the truck but saved the rack. It's sturdy and well made. I'm about an hour northeast of Sacramento in Grass Valley. Quote
