What year 40 are you looking for the step to fit? There are at least 2 variations of the rear step...

Hey Wes,
I think I have a couple of rear steps here...not sure of the years, but one has the bolt flange tucked in and the other has the flanges tucked out. I can get pics if you like (and are still looking, of course

Hi Mike!
I should have one on the way. If it doen't work out I'll let you know. Honestly I'm not sure which is correct for 64.
Hope you doing well
Thanks again for the offer.

On a 64 it would be the flange in. The flange out one is for the 74 and later that shared the same bolts as the bumperettes. Those holes would be closer together than the ones on the earlier step. You can use a later one on the early cruisers you just have weld the holes and drill new ones. If wesintl doesn't want I would be interested.

John, let me double check with FF that the ears on the step are in I really want to keep this cruiser period since i'm tossing the rear diving board conferr bumper
Mike, I'm not sure the carb is going to work or not. I tore it down and there is one spot that doesn't look good after I removed the screw on the bottom side of the sight glass. I can't remember what it is off the top of my head. The base is definatly toast, I still have it soaking too. I have a good one though.

Wes,
Bummer on the carb
if there's nothing you can use on it, let me know and I can get your $$ back to ya if you like.
I'll try to dig those steps out tonight and get some pictures for you/John.

Hey John,
I found the "ears out" step last night and tore my shop apart looking for the "ears in" version...which one are you looking for? The later model one has a few PO-added 'options'; i.e. some bar stock and angle welded on. The lower rear reinforcing web has been bent on one side too. It could be brought back with some TLC, but it'll take a little work. I've got a pic, but it exceeds the mud bandwidth. Let me know if you're still interested; I can send the pic directly to ya if you like.
