The cabs changed in mid '51 as they used up the last of the older style. If they also used 1st series bed sides with the older cabs thats when the change occured with the spare tire carrier. If not then it would have been '50. The older style is the cast member that bolts to the frame
1st and 2nd series bed crossmembers are the same, not sure about the brand new ones that had the 3rd series as I'm into older trucks not ones that are practically off the assembly line
