You will need the 53-55 running board mounts for the drivers side. The early mounts have a sharp bend to clear the tank. The 56 mounts are curved in a larger radius. I can't tell you for certain that the early mounts will bolt to the 56 frame but as far as I know the running boards are the same so the spacing must be the same.
