Hi, I'm rebuilding the bed on my 51 1 ton. Unfortunately, I wasn't the one who disassembled it. My question is on the bed strips. The one tones have a flange on the bottom of the front panel. Do the bed strips go under or over this flange? Any help appreciated.

Can you post a picture of what you are referring too?

If you are rebuilding a 1 ton with a regular long box then the front panel lip sits on top of the boards (if I'm wrong 'bolters please correct me). The bedside angle strip sits on top of the boards.
The rear end of the boards sit up on top of the lower lip of the rear cross sill.
Hope this helps!

Sorry, I didn't read closely enough. On my one ton the bed strips go under the front bed panel.
