Re: Questions on Replacing Bed Wood?

The bed wood metal strips bolt to the metal cross members. The metal cross members bolt to the frame.
IIRC I filed the metal cross member bolt holes so it was square so the carriage bolts wouldn't turn when you bolt the box down to the frame.
Since my box was all aftermarket parts except the tail gate I had to shim the box up about a 1/4" to match the cab body lines.
