Mounting bed to frame - Help!

[vandercookd]

I am restoring the '67 C10 that's been in my wife's family since new. It was passed on to me by my brother-in-law earlier this year. He had started the restoration process, so when I got it it was in pieces. Essentially, the cab, engine, and radiator support are the only things on the frame. Everything else is loose. I have everything, it's just not put together.
Well, I'm about to move across the country. It would be much easier to transport the thing if at least the bed was mounted to the frame. The problem is that I don't know how it mounts. I have the mounting rails, but I don't know which ones go where. The bed is only a frame right now. It's a wood bed, but there's no wood floor yet. Is there a guide anywhere that shows how it's mounted?

These links might help you. If not, try using the search function at the top of the screen. Click the "67-72" button instead of the "web" button. I just typed in "wood bed cross rails" and found the links I posted. Hopefully this helps.

Thanks! This is very helpful.
I tried to do some searches, but I was using all the wrong terms, apparently.

Been there, done that. It took me awhile to get use to it, but most of the time after a little time of typing different stuff in and browsing through some threads, I find my answer. Its a pretty cool tool that this site has.

For moving you will only need 4 mounting bolts, 2 in the rear and 2 on the main cross member in the front. I don't have a pic but will try to find one.

Thanks for the info!
I'm guessing you're referring to the bolts that connect the bed sides to the rails, right? If you have pics, that'd be great, but I think I'm understanding you.

Well actually I was talking about the frame mounting bolts. You will also have to have I believe 4 bolts at the end of the front crossmember to attach it to the bedsides.

Ah, OK. I understand (for real now).
