I'm fixing to start on the bed for my 49. I didn't remove it so I'm was wondering were the actual bed bolts back down? I have figured out the bed rails, order etc. I just need to know how and were it is attached?{ Maybe pictures} Also need to find new axle jam nuts? Thanks Dave

I'm glad we did take the wood out. It exposed large areas that were never worked on, or painted right over the rust.© mprutz 2014

We were a bit surprised to find that the underside of the wood was not even stained. Explains why the boards were all cupped.© mprutz 2014

I am working replacing the bed on my 1953 Dodge B4C. From what I can tell this bed configuration is different from most of the other years. I am looking for any information anyone might have regard the dimensions of the wood and how the outer pieces are cut and installed. It appears that the two out...
