I have nearly perfect steel floor in a 1972'ish 1/2 ton. I was thinking of putting it in my 65 since the wood floor is completely gone. I know there is a 3/4 in gap under the front bed panel, but what about the bed bolts? I heard they dont line up with the holes in the frame.... can be made to work but how much are they off? how much trouble is it to make it work ?
