Newbee Here - 1965 C10 step side long vs short bed question - please help

[markbritt]

New to the forum and could you assistance please. My son and I picked up a very nice 1965 C10 fleetside from out West. My son's desire is to convert to a long bed step side. I have been looking for a long bed step side bed for quite some time with no luck.

My question - are the steps on the long and short beds the same size? I see the lmc truck as the steps for the 'short bed' version, but I don't know if they are the same for the long bed version?

If the long bed steps are longer (I suspect they may be), is there a source for original or repo?

Thanks a lot,
Mark
