Today was a slow day in the shop, I ended up helping hang and allign doors on a 51 chevy car so that cut into my build time, but I did get a little bit done.The front stake pockets came in last night so I was able to work on them today also.I drilled a bunch of holes for spot welds and got everything squared and clamped, ready to weld up in the morning. Then I have to figure out a way to mount the bed to the frame.This is what the front pockets look like, I wish they came pre-drilled but they didn't.A couple pictures of the back ones clamped up.Overall I am happy with the quality of the stake pockets, I definitely couldn't have made them for what I paid. I only had to drill the holes for the plug welds, and also re bend the top flange because they didn't fit at all, but that was only a few minutes worth of work so I cant complain too much.
