Got a lot done this weekend. About 10 hours total, but I got the bed mounts fabbed and installed. I also verified the cab is leaning, so that explains the body lines not lining up. So, I removed the bed and welded the mounts and the rear cross member. Ill finish boxing the frame, add a tow hitch and some other supports. I still have to finish the 4-link welding too.
Im still working on my welding. I think Im getting better, but I still need work. The vertical welds look like catapillars for some reason. They are penetrating well, because I ground a few out to look at them. They were good, they just look funky. Im passable on a flat surface, but the vertical welds look weird. Maybe Im going too fast, but if I slow down it sags. Anyway, here are the pictures.
1st picture- rough bed mounts. They were cut, and cleaned up before installation.
2nd- bed coming off.
3rd- bed outside. Its getting easier. I got it this far by myself.
4th- rear section. Bed mounts and rear cross member installed.
5th- another angle. Still lots of work to do.
6th- bed mount close up. The welds look funny to me. Im sure Im doing something wrong. Ill figure it out.

I'm no welder, but it looks like you need more heat in your welds. Thse look pretty sketchy to me.
