If you want OEM, have you tried gem car parts direct? [https://www.gemcarpartsdirect.com](https://www.gemcarpartsdirect.com/) Otherwise probably any stake bed parts supplier, or even amazon > **[Amazon.com: Keeper 89322 Straight Trailer Stake Pocket: Automotive](https://www.amazon.com/Keeper-89322-Straight-Trailer-Pocket/dp/B00C5SMRAG/)** ---

Ouch that price sucks. Someone must make smaller ones though, when I bought my used '02 it came with heavy steel ones that donā€™t appear to be original. Of course, they might not be stake bed brackets, could be something the mechanics who ran it repurposed. Iā€™ll look more closely later ---

Of course, they might not be stake bed brackets, could be something the mechanics who ran it repurposed. Iā€™ll look more closely later Dohā€¦ Looks like the ones on mine are just some c-channel welded to two pieces of angle iron, and they are reinforcing the aluminum squirt gun welded ones (which might or might not be OEM - I have no idea) ![bracket2](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/9/98650f8cb3f4b34103eb1cb658b5f92d0ab9b0e6.jpeg) ![bracket1](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex030/uploads/electricforum/original/2X/c/c933cdf51165bc3b9f7512bc01dbb9718f802070.jpeg) ---
