Yeah that #2 with the brackets is funky. The rear cross-sill has to be longer than the rest to fit into the stake pockets at the rear. It also gets a vertical weld bead to the stake pocket. Here's another pic of my bed assembly (zoom in on the lower right corner where the line-up punch is sticking thru holes in the stake pocket and cross-sill.) I think you're going to have to get another rear cross-sill. Contact Mack Products They have absorbed Mar-K's products, and should be able to supply with the rear cross-sill that you need.
I'm not seeing the holes for the front panel, but maybe you have that cross-sill turned around in the pictures. The sill goes behind the front panel.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
