Need measurement (63 bed rail)

I lost the location of my 2nd from rear bed rail. ( there are 2 holes in the frame near the location of 2nd rail from tail gate bed, and I’m not sure which one is correct location)
See pic for appropriate location (can someone help?)

Long bed or short bed?

Maybe this picture of a 65 c20 frame will help?

Re: Need measurement (63 bed rail)

Ya know, it would have helped if I had understood your question better. That's what I get for some late night reading
Was totally thinking you were asking about the rear cross member that's no longer in place because of your fuel tank. If I were running that tank, I would probably relocate that rear crossmember as a little bit of extra metal in case someone hits ya
