Keep the pictures coming!

I cut the middle of the floor out in one big section. Then attacked the sides where all the carriage bolts were so I could get at the top and bottom of them at the same time. While I was removing the floor and installing I used some 1” square tubing in a triangulated pattern welded just the lip of the bedside to hold it up. I put it in the middle of the bedside so I would be able to push the rear of the bedsides out enough to clear the new floor. I kept the frame under the truck so I would have to drop the new and old panel all the way to the floor to remove and install them. Also because the mrs think she needs to park in the garage so I’m limited for space. I hope some of that makes sense. If you need me to clarify anything or have more questions feel free to ask.
