Re: 51' 3100 build in PA New to Site

larry, yeah the bed has been mounted. this truck has been done, I'm just doing things to it here and there. You have to cut the rear of the s-10 frame by about 5" in the back if it is a 117.9" wb. So the reg size AD bed will fit. Is this what you are asking? I can pm you some pics if you need. I just made my own mounts for the front of the bed and the rear of the bed sits on my tow hitch and is bolted to the frame. My wooden bed slides in and out, I attached the barn wood to my existing plywood that I had in there. So it is real convenient to take the bed on and off, if I mounted all the wood, I'd be in a whirl wind. I have had to get under there to change a pinion seal, u joint and put in pinion shims already, so it is nice to have a removeable bed.
