Re: 47-48 3100 bed mounting ...

That tooks some hunting.

Looking at the Mar-K bed for a 48 you can see that the recesses for the offset washers at he rear are at the rear crossmember and at the one just behind the hump for the axle. The ones in front of the hump don't have bolts going through the frame just the one at the front. This a terrible image but you can see the second recess for the washer for the bolt behind the hump. https://www.summitracing.com/oh/part...MaAv5FEALw_wcB

It's been since 1973 that I had the stock bedwood or stock type bedwood in my 48. The wood in the bed was about the best part of the truck when I bought it in March of 1973. I vaguely remember those bolts being there.
