    They look like a place to put a 2x6 board, but why?

    I made mine flush to the lip that runs the entire length of the bed, this way I can make a camping floor and have some room under.

    When KBVoodoo had a call for ideas I think I suggested remaking his heavy duty crossbars to utilize the notches. Will have to go back and look. If I could brake metal I would give it a shot then drill holes so they would nest and mount on the rail behind the cab.

    Lol. Did you also suggest a low profile toolbox that sits between the wells? Low pro box plus crossbars for hauling would be a winner. Damn I wish I had equipment....and skills....and funds. :)

    No , my version would nest in each other and mount to the forward bed rail when not in use

    We are probably two of about fifteen that suggested the crossbar idea. If he makes 'em it will be like a radio contest where the first caller wins the prize.
