There's a British supplier that makes the front curved sections by the beam, but I can't remember their name right now. Rolling Eyes

Hey Karl,

I believe the "center" part of split/bay rails have the same profile. There are differences where the frame rail turns up in the front, and at the rear torsion housing area.

That is what I thought also. I have a Bay parts bus with GREAT rails and that is what I have to replace on the Split. I did a measurement on the rails and yes they are the same. Thanks for the reply
