    Does anyone have assembly directions for the early F1 bedsides 48 to early 50.
    Looking for the assembly directions for the all the sill braces and subframe and sub frame pockets.
    When I bought this truck it was all taken apart.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Can you post those pics of the bed frame intact.

    Anyone else have any pics I can use to determine the assembly of my pick up bed.
    Thanks.......

  4. It's really not hard. You've got one crossmember specific to the front, two center ones. Put those three on, then get your bedsides in place (clamp them on for now to allow for adjustment) then get your front panel in place. Once you've got all that, it'll be pretty obvious where the rear crossmember goes.

    Thanks Charlyw that's the pic I was looking for.
    Did you tack it together the cross members to the sub frame?
     
  7. Yes, mine were a little "iffy" so I also tacked 1" sq. tube to the flange on each of the middle cross braces.
