raised bed mount ideas?

Wondering who has raised their bed floors and if you have pics? With all the stuff I've been adding Compressors, tank, fuel cell, four link it's getting kind of crowded on my 58. Right now I'm planning on welding 8 2x2x.250 pieces of square tube vertically over the original mounting points and boxing the up with some 3/16 and a 1/2-13 cage nut and adding some small gussets where I can fit them. Then welding 1 inch angle in the bed and just moving everything 6 3/4 up and extending the the filler piece in front of the tailgate. Anybody got some advice for their build? Pictures of what worked for you? Thanks in advance. TJ
