side to side bed adjustment on frame?

[freak]

I'm putting my cab back on my lwb after installing a new floor. I haven't had the bed off yet but is there any side to side adjustment on the bed? The cab is shifted about 1/2 inch to the right and I can't seem to get it out. I was hoping the bed might move. I don't know what the side to side alignment looked like before the floor pan. It's been apart a long time.

Yes.

There should be enough slop with the bolts loose that you can pull it back and forth side to side.

There is not much side to side movement for the bed.
I have a cab I installed a couple months ago which is rotated a bit on the mounts, doesn't want to move by hand. As a result the bed doesn't have an even gap to the cab, its off by 3/8" or so. I am going to have to jack it up and rotate it a bit. I have tried everything with the bed and its not working.
Try to measure cab to rocker panel, etc and see if you can find out which way it needs to go, otherwise put the bed where you think its best and then move the cab to fit the bed. Then check the core support.
If the fenders don't fit right up yo may have to shim the cab at the mounts.
The back body line of the cab should fit the bed too, it it doesn't then shim the cab.
