need a dimension

Starting to put my truck back together and would like to know how close to set the front of the bed to the back of the cab.Right now i'm at 3/4".I know they move a little and the bolt heads seem a bit close.Does anybody know what will work?

Re: need a dimension

If your concerned about the heads of the bolts that connect the bed front wall to the bed side, some trucks came with screws instead of bolts. If I recall correctly they are a Phillips round head screws.
