Re: Fabricating brackets for Aluminess Ladder
My 1976 E250 (below - merely a gratuitous photo which adds nothing to this post but makes me happy whenever I see it) had a chrome ladder on it which I removed. I always thought that if I ever reinstalled it, I would mount some metal wedges on bumper to support the bottom of the ladder. Thought was that the door would swing over the wedges but a foot on the bottom of each rail of the ladder would ride up and on each wedge and the bumper would take the weight when using the ladder. Just a thought.
