how do i fix this?
I inspected the frame and its straight and Im parked on even flat ground so there shouldn't be any frame twisting. Now there was at one time a hit on the back side of the wheel ds that has a dent in the bed side but would have caused the bed to bend the other way.If you have any suggestions im all ears? thanks for any help upfront.

If the bed sticks out on one side and goes in the the other, loosen the bed bolts and move bed where it looks good, then tighten it up.

Ok, well thats pretty simple but I didn't think that the mount holes were inlongated to move the bed from side to side, or are they?

Re: how do i fix this?
If i remember correctly theres enough room to move the bed side to side maybe and inch to an inch and a half.
And if its still off, check you cab and front clip as well. They too have room to move. After you line the front of the bed to the back of the cab then either go to the front or rear of truck and look down the side. If looks like the body line either goes in or out then you may have to move both bed and cab. It all depends Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: how do i fix this?
Yeah I think that i may have lucked out on this rig when i bought it. all the po's that have owned it i have all the reciepts of all the work that has been done to it and none of them messed with any of the bushings. im buying mine next weekend and resdoing them.
