Stepside light buckets, am I crazy? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So I already have LED bulb/lenses for my '66, but due to the rebuild, need new tai light buckets to mount them in.

Every parts sight I've used sells versions of the whole light assembly (stainless, black, LED vs non LED), but I don't see any with JUST the bucket. Anyone have a link or part #? I've looked at Classic Industries, Brothers, LMC, and a few others via google.

Yep. I figured that was more apparent in the first post but I guess it could be interpreted as the others. Tail light buckets for the stepsides, that mount off the rear bed post.

I have some stainless aftermarket buckets

Part of the reason I just want some cheap stamped ones, is that I'm planning on welding them partially into the stake pockets (like blended in). Stainless sounds like the way to go for regular mounting, since everyone seems to have theirs rusted to death.

I have never seen just the bucket without a lens. Be warned. I bought a set of buckets with regular bulbs a while back ago and then later I purchased the led lenses to go with them and they did not fit. Both were purchased from Classic Industries.
