I welded up some tubing to lift the bed off my 68 C10. Worked very well!! Some people are using wood but after pricing out some 4X4's and hardware I decided to buy some metal. It was a little more money than the wood but lighter, stronger and easily reusable or sell it when no longer needed. If you have a welder or access to one this is a simple project.

I'm fortunate to have a lift but an engine cherry picker works well too.
