Bed cross brace question....
I've got the box off my 72 GMC Sierra and have sand blasted the frame and cross braces and I would like to know what color the braces were originally. The truck is blue and I think that they are supposed to be same color as the frame but before I start painting it would be nice to know for sure.....
Thanks |

Re: Bed cross brace question....
The braces that I have seen were zinc coated and not painted.

Re: Bed cross brace question....
I just painted mine frame black, and coated with undercoating. Looks good.

Does anyone recall how they came from the plant?
