The Ford Barn

Looks like the cab takes 10 bolts to mount. That leaves me with only two bolts left for bed from the body mount kit. Anyone know how many bolts and where they go on the bed? Thanks!

Usually bolt kits are for the bed OR the cab. I believe there are 10 bolts used for the cab. 3 on the front wood piece, 1 toward the front to the seat and 1 at the back for a total of 5 for one side. I believe the bed has 5 on each side see the picture below for the holes that take bolts. I also think the wood is bolted to the frame and then the bed is bolted to the wood/frame.

Thanks Rusty, Yes 5 on each side is correct. I have a Brookville bed so the wood is already attached. It's on small roller beds on garage floor so havent been able to get under and take a look yet. I'm sure it will make sense once bed pan is fitted over spring and aligned correctly.
