i need fender support brackets

I have my bed off and discovered that the flat fender well supports are gone on the passenger side. Does anyone make these? Not sure why the PO would take them off, but if I can find some it would help. BTW I'm not talking about the round ones that bolt in, I need the flat ones about 4 inches wide that I think are welded in.

Hi Don I don't think those were tacked in there very well, I had one side loose almost ready to fall off and tacked it back up in there. That being a flat piece you could have Eagle Mfg. on hwy 41 cut one out of some stock, or check at Roy's at Garwood might have a box out there you could get one off of. Here is a link to Mar-K I didn't see that part listed but you could call them and see if they had any idea's..Vernski

Thanx Vern. I didnt even notice they were gone until I got the bed off and stood it up on end. On the other side the welds have broken so I will weld them on when the neighbor comes over to weld the mufflers on. They look like a pain to get out so maybe I'll just take the bed totally apart and have a couple made. Shouldn't be too tough.

Sorry, I was mixed up; I did not read your post well. I thought you were looking for the round ones from the fender to the frame like I am.

I wish it was those. You can make some by getting some round stock, heat the ends and pound them flat. Just drill a hole in the now flattened end and your good to go.
