Does anyone make boxing plates for 47-54 original trucks for front and rear?

Re: Boxing Plates

$269 a set??? Heck... go buy yourself an HF bandsaw... a decent blade and some 10 guage cold rolled... trace n cut... pocket the change and keep the saw for later! (you'll need it) And you'll have metal left over, a new saw and still have the pieces welded in the frame before the UPS dude shows up....

Just my 2 cents tho...
