Re: Bed step

Even on both sides with the gap between the bed and the back of the cab even all the way up and down. That will probably be better than when it left the factory new.

Cab mounts in good shape and the correct bed mounts in good shape help too.

Re: Bed step

I measured mine before I disassembled it and mine was 1.25 inches at the upper lip where you have referenced. Having said that, I'm betting they vary somewhat between trucks. BTW mine is a 56 also. Hope this helps.

Re: Bed step

It's hard to get an exact measurement due to the curvature of the lower cab and the front of the step, but mine measures 1 3/4 inches.
