66 c10.

Assembling and mounting the bed on truck I measured and found the right rear is almost an inch lower vs left. Everything else seems straight.

I have new rear sill and center beams. I have shimmed it about 3/8 but it still measures off what I consider alot. Going to wait until I can pull out of garage and get a better look at it before I shim more.

Anyone else have to shim a bed to get it straight?
