my son came by this weekend to help me get the bedsides, headboard and tailgate out of my garage attic hard to believe I purchased the entire SWB fleet bed parts in 2016 I was 64 at that time and put them up there by myself a decade later I need help getting them down ....I picked the parts up in my Cheyenne in Connecticut saved shipping and damage ...ABS auto body specialties they have since shut down shame they were great to deal with and less than a 2 hour ride from me....

took measurements from where the cab ends up past the cab mount and the bed side starts drilled through the frame for the positive cable and used a PCV valve cover grommet to protect it ...battery box installed..... finally
