You shouldn't have to. Just remove all the bolts that go thru the front panel.

Re: Front bed panel install question

i removed the bedside to floor bolts back to about the wheelwells and used a long 2X4 as wedge to gently spread the sides out so you can remove the old front bed panel and install the new one

I just took apart one of the beds I have the other day. I took the front panel off without the sides being loose, so going back on shouldn't be a problem. Jim
