Replacing the bedside

Does anybody know if a bedside for an 85 LB bolts on? If you look at the diagram it looks like there is about 15 bolts that secure the bottom of the bedside to the floor, any ideas?

it completely bolts on/off except for one spot weld back by the tailgate hinge area that has to be drilled out (you will see it, it is in plain sight).

I disassembled my entire bed in about 4-hours. Mine had 4 spot welds---Fender to back of the bed floor and bed posts to the floor. It's pretty easy and you shouldn't have any problems replacing one bed side.
