Looks like bench seating or side extensions to make the payload walls taller.

I am basing this on these photos, but am not certain.

I read somewhere that they were used for bridging very short spans.

It makes sense as the Tamiya Protze kit towing the 37mm Pak gun also has them mounted on the truck.

Hope this helps.
