I restored my bed with all new parts from LMC, to include cross bars. Worked great.

Re: 72 Sierra Grande wood bed

Thank you for responding I'm been looking at the LMC catalog I'm a little confused about how the cross sills , do the bolt to the sides of the beds? and do you run the bolts through the wood to the frame I really appreciate the help I've got just the bed sides from the PO Thanks Guys

Re: 72 Sierra Grande wood bed

I just did my C2500 long bed last year. My cross sills were rusted out so I replaced them with new ones from GMC Pauls. The cross sills do not bolt to the bed sides. They are held down by the (what seems like 1000) bolts that go through the rails.
