I paid careful attention to number all of the cross beams and record their order for re-installation. I don't think that was even nessesary. Now the trim is back on, and it appears the bed is 1/4-1/2" higher than the cab. I did not use mount pads because it did'nt have any when it came apart. How do I lower the bed? The thought that perhaps the cab mounts should be replaced to bring the cab up to the correct height would be possible. What would that do to the front fenders? The truck is a 71' fleetside. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 2,384 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 2,384 | Most all need new cab mounts, my 64 bed was higher until I replaced the cab mounts.
