I don't know, but my longbed was moved by me and 2 others, It was heavy.

Jack it up ( or lift if you got a buddy) and block it. Keep doing that until it clears the truck, and drive out from under it. You gotta unbolt it of course...

i JUST bought a bed from a wrecking yard about 2 hours away & we had to trailer it home - we had to lift off the truck, flip it over & place it on the flatbed. It was heavy (like 400lbs+), & awkard (try flipping it over!)
