number/location of bed bolts
Please excuse this overly fundamental question. I attempted to remove my short wheelbase stepside bed (under low light conditions and increasing frustration) and found a set of bolts about six or eight inches from the front bed panel going through the frame. This could be it and I know there are more. The two I tried to remove were at a rate of half a trun every 20 minutes, so I instantly exceeded the allowable frustration points fro the day causing me call it quits. Please please point me in the right direction regarding number of and location of bed/frame bolts
P.S. To and to the delima(sp?) the previous owner welded apiece of sheet metal over the bed floor, cant see bolts ![]()

redone71 -
Sounds like you got some fun ahead of you!! I think you found the second of 4 sets of bolts. From the front, my wood bed short step has a set about 3" back, 7" back, about 6" behind the rear and at the very end of the frame rails. (The LMC '67-'72 truck parts catalog has a good diagram for this.) Not sure if the wood bed is different from the steel one.... Good luck,
