Fillers(?) are 2 1/4" high x 2 1/16" wide.
I did not understand.Can someone help me?

Don't know about Joe's reply but dimension 'A' is 355 mm and dimension 'B' is 570 mm
Adding these dimensions together gives the length of the troop seat stanchion 925 mm.
Is this the information you are after?

Sorry David.Appealing my calculations:
1)Breaks between the slats=1,5cm
2)Are 6 breaks, then 6x1,5cm=9cm
3)57cm-9cm=48cm
4)48cm:6 slats=8cm(each slats).
THANKS VERY MUCH FRIEND.

"Fillers" are the two wood spacers that are between the cargo body and the frame. The drivers side on the LWB is shorter to allow for the spare wheel.

Another thing I noticed is the bed tail is after the bumperettes.

I do not have the measurements for the components of the wood cargo body, but will try to find you some references when I get a chance.

Thanks Joe.Seizing the opportunity I ask to you.My 353 was a shop van type.Is there some difficulties to do an wood cargo body considering the holes in the chassis?
