HELP!! Can't get bedside off! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've got all the bolts out of the bedside on the Blazer, but can't get the front loose! The back is ready to come off, but can't get the front to let go. What am I missing? Is there a trick? Thanks for the help, Jeff.

Its spot welded to the front and backside of the door post and also spot welded to the floor. Write next to where the tailgate is. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com

Where are the spot welds in the front, Wes? I already took care of the ones in the back. Just can't seem to get the front loose. There were lots of bolts thru the rocker boxes, but I can't seem to see where its welded. Do I have to remove the plates that are welded behind the door pillar? Thanks, Jeff.
