Just need to shim up 1 1/2 inches for the front and rear mounts. From what I gather, most people use a piece of thickwalled 1 1/2 square tubing and bolt it across the frame on the front and rear mounts. Then the new bed is bolted to this using the original mounting locations along the outer edges of the bed.
