If your bed floor isn’t severely damaged by rust, I’d make the repairs and leave the bed riveted together. I’m still not done with my bed but getting close. I’m pretty sure that half the time spent on the restoration of my pickup will be spent on the bed. Also, if I ever do another early pickup, I will not use Mack Hils wood underlayment. It’s not correct and the cuts are performed by an amateur. Buy yourself some good planks and make the cuts yourself. It really wouldn’t be hard. Let me know if you need any repair sections for your bed floor. I machined tooling for the holes with the beaded detail around them. Good luck.
