Question About Taking Apart a Bed
I am going to put a metal floor in my truck to replace the wood one, and I bought a old bed that I am taking apart. The one part I can't figure out is how to get the 4 "screws" out that hold the upper front corners of the bed together. They are stuck too tight to remove with a screwdriver, but I don't want to drill them out because they go thorough the nut that is welded to the front panel (which I also need to use) any ideas?

Get an impact driver, takes a screwdriver bit one end and you hit the other end hard with a BFH and it usually shocks it free. Available from all good tool suppliers (I sound like a TV commercial!)

Ok, I will have to try that again. I tried once, and I could not get them to even move. Any other ideas if that won't work?

Mine were seized, an impact wrench didn't do it, finally ground them off. Good luck

Yea, that kinda sound like the old bed that I have. How did you get the other part of the bolt out?
