This vid just answered a bunch of questions on my bed install, thanks!

[@GuyinWY]

Glad it helped! I’m hoping to have a bale bed build coming soon.

[@mi2tn]

Looks good on there. Great job!

[@GuyinWY]

Thanks! I'm wrapping up a few things on it now, but should be 'done' here very soon.

Good job. To avoid the fuel line pinch, I probably would have raised a little bit more. I do like the mounting as it gives me some ideas for the custom build flatbed on our 72 International pickup. The wooden mounts it came with are deteriorating. Thank you for sharing.

[@GuyinWY]

Raising it would have helped but I wanted to keep it as low as possible so that the headache rack matched the cab.

What year was this bed originally for?

[@davidsanford2711]

how did u secure the bed to get it home? did u use rachet straps from the rub rail to the frame?

[@GuyinWY]

+David Sanford basically. You can see that here- czcams.com/video/HPxrIWmYgXY/video.html

Thx for sharing

[@evanklapp7628]

We're you able to plug and play with the lights or did you have to wire it up yourself?

[@GuyinWY]

There are some adapters available, but I also had to do a little custom wiring.

The bed looks like it's tilting backwards

[@Stolpa169]

What size bed? Part number? Model number? Looking to do this to my supercab.

[@GuyinWY]

This is a CM model RD, it’s 8’ long and I don’t recall the width.

[@upnorthyooper1196]

Spacers front and rear should be the same height. Your bed is not parallel to the truck frame.

[@stevengonyaw1617]

Exactly

[@efnbill7724]

This is true?
