did a search and couldn't find anything, i'm sure it's on here somewhere though.

Anyways, I need to replace the area where my tail lights would be on a 62, bigger one's have been cut in, looking for some measurements as to location. Maybe from belt line down and from deck lid over.

any help would be much appreciated!! thank's.

I have a 62 double cab I could measure but I don't know if it would be the same as a bus.

Cool, thanks Jeremy, I think if you measured from the top of the deck lid/engine compartment down to the top of light opening that should be the same, then from side of compartment to side of opening it should all work out.
