How many cross sills are there under the wood of my bed?

I am thinking there is the front one and the one over the gas tank but am unsure if there is another.

TIA

see link at bottom regarding youtube video on bed assembly in there is string of photos one showing the bed sills in a 50 which I think would be the same. 4 in total. With mine I found the second sill in front of the rear axle was not fixed down? made my own tapered mounts all good

You should have one also behind the axle about 23 inches forward from the rear end of your boards. That one needs to have a bed to frame bolt go through it into the frame.
