1987 Ford Ranger 7ft bed braces

Anyone have a part number for the 4 braces for the bed sides? Better still where to buy new ones?
thanks

That would be a neat trick to find those body parts. If your bed is bad, you will need to go to a better part of the country where they did not use salt, and buy the whole bed.

These trucks are not like mustangs and camaros(not that popular). If there is no demand, the aftermarket is not going tool up and make parts. I would be surprised if you could find many bed parts like that when the little trucks were new.

I think you will be repairing what have unless you can find a descent used bed to cut from i just fixed my corners it took about some patches 8 inches long

My best recommendations are LMC truck and local junk yard.

Not sure which part you are talking about. I have a parts bed that has rusted out wheel wells, other wise is in good shape.I could cut them out if you show what it is. You can have the bed if you want to come and get it.

I just saw a posting on the Facebook Rangerstation group this afternoon from a guy in Massachusetts that has good rust-free beds and rear frame sections that he got from South Carolina.
