This is how I constucted the tilt bed brackets......leaving the bed on the truck....
This was a simple bracket to make, just took a piece of 2x2 angle (long enough to cover two bed mount holes) and laid it on the truck rails to mark the existing holes that bolted the bed down, marked those holes on the 2x2 angle. Drilled out the angle and reamed the holes on the truck rails (so the head of the bolts would go through). Had to add a side plates (that was welded to the angle) it covered the existing holes where the bumper was mounted and used the rear existing bumper mount hole as the pivot point. Since the front bumper mount hole could not be used and the bumper was hanging on the rear pivot bolt, leveled the bumper welded the bumper to the new side plate.
