Short Fleetside bed wood support bars - how many?

I did a search to see if anyone had asked the question before. But no specific threads..

So my question is quite simple really.

My truck had a plywood floor fitted a long time ago, so there are no bed strips, and the under floor supports that are on the chassis are not there either.

Does anyone who has done a Short Fleetside bed wood, possibly have a sequence of photos showing this and how many of those cross braces they have ??

Thank you.


PS. I did find these threads....

And of course what my truck looks like




And my bed with minimal supports.

Spoke to Paul NevEno earlier as well.

Looks like I am missing two more cross supports.

Looks like Martin and I will be trading horses some time.

Two in the front, one small one just in front or rear wheel wells and then another one like the front and finally the rear.
Good luck!
