Does anyone know where the spot welds should go on the rear cross sill?

Re: 66 c10 Rear Cross Sill
Mine was welded on each bed side. did not re-weld when i put the bed back together. This was a fleetside. Others have said no need. Heavy loads probably.

Re: 66 c10 Rear Cross Sill
Fleetside rear bed crossmembers were welded to the bedsides. Like 61K10 said, really no reason to weld them unless doing a 100% factory restoration.

Bolts should be tight or the sides will drift out of square, mine did

Re: 66 c10 Rear Cross Sill
Somewhat related question, how hard was it to remove the rear cross sill from the bedsides?

Re: 66 c10 Rear Cross Sill
My experience is there is a weld across here that can be a pain to get to.
