I just pulled my bed last night so here is a pic of the mounts for a short stepside. Both of my short wheelbase trucks have one-piece drivelines so they were probably converted if two piece was stock on short wheelbase trucks. The trailing arm mount/center bearing mount has to be moved forward of the rear cab mounts once you cut the 12 inches from behind the cab.
