[M35a2duece]

Has anyone converted there stock duece box to be removable stake sides? I think that would greatly increase the usefulness of the truck.

Yes. I know of this box. In saying removable sides. So It could be a flat bed

The drop sides are removable for a flat bed.

Do they come off in the same fashion the tailgate does?

Yep remove the hinge pins.

Just know that they are heavy little turds ! It takes at least two people to remove them. Three would be better.
