What is the purpose of this ?
Does anyone know what the purpose of the two box sections with threaded hole on the interior of the pick up can. It can’t be for a spare wheel as it’s far too low. I have attached a picture as my description isn’t the best.

That's so close up, I couldn't picture where it is?
Found this in the Parts Book, but not found what goes on it....
It looks different to what you have though

Thanks for your replies so far, it would be good to know if anyone has actually used these fixings or if there is a picture of it in use.
Re: What is the purpose of this ?
Some Australian pick ups were built with bench seats, so it is possible they used the fitting, although probably not what they were intended for.

I like the look of the bench seat in the pickup, I haven’t seen this before and looks great.
