You have a good 3" to work a wrench under the bed and onto that bolt. The bolt at the front of the spring (2nd set back) either requires a long bolt or using a short bolt and 2 wrenches. I went with a short bolt there.

ah. makes sense. so you utilized the original bed mounts on the frame, just made a support that bolts to it
