bed side tool box seal

Post by rleazer »

Anyone ever replace the side bed tool box rubber seal on a 1972 F-250 Camper Special, if so is the seal available or does it have to be made?

Good question. I couldn't find any reproduction seals when I restored my truck so I left it off. Same problem trying to find the gas neck grommet for the aux fuel tank

I knew I'd seen the gas tank grommet. http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/FB/full.aspx?Page=39

Wow, thank you for effort to find this!!

Unfortunately, my truck is a 69 and the fuel filler neck/grommet is different from the 70-72. I'll keep looking though

I needed one for the aux tank on my flareside and ended up modifying a plug used on the cab for the tank delete. You can find a pic of the packaging with the part number on the last page of my build thread.

I got mine from Dennis Carpenter. I installed it under the lip of the box, but I have seen them glued to the door itself. Honestly don't know which is the factory way, since I have never seen an F-series toolbox that still had the seal attached.
