88-A Platform Bed Questions
Posted: March 7th, 2021, 11:11 am
Hi,
I am assembling my 88-A platform bed and I have a couple of questions.
1. The 3rd stake pocket (AA-88239) from the left on the rear d3 crossmember (AA-88097-B) has a square hole in the side. Does the hole go to the right when view from standing behind the truck?
2. Two of my stake pockets have holes in their faces. Are these correct, or should I weld them up (see pictures)?
3. What finish of black would the platform be (gloss, semi-gloss, or satin)?
4. Is there a list of details showing which rivets are finished with domed shaped heads and which get the waffle pattern? As far as I can tell all are domed shaped except all the rivets that attach the cross members to the side members (AA-88091) including the floor corner reinforcement brackets (AA-88074) (picture attached).
Thanks,
Dave
