[gringoloco]

Finally got to work one weekend and stripped the rear of the truck of all of its parts, including the bed...

Most of it came apart relatively quickly and easily with the help of an impact, with the exception of the center trailing arm crossmember. Man, that thing was a BEAST to get out of there! A grinder, cut-off wheel, air-chisel, a BFH, and copious amounts of words you wouldn't say in front of your mother were all used in its removal In the second pic you can see some of the carnage from dis-assembly on the other side of the driveway.
