I raised my bedfloor 4" what is everyone using to space it back up so that it lines up with the cab, and does anyone know of an online website to buy bolts from. I went and tried to buy some bolts that are 4" longer than my stock bed bolts and they were $6 apiece and I'm going to need 8.

Basicly i just cut some round tubeing then used washers to line it up perfectly. your going to need weld 4 nuts under bed were the mounts are located... then use tube and washer to shim it up and bolt it in and your set.

I used plastic body lift blocks and cut them down to the correct height!

i just used 2x3 box and cut a small section of it for the spacer and drilled a hole in the top of it so i could still use the origional bed bolts. i also had to use a couple washers to get it just right

I used ALL THREAD from the local Home Depot and threaded it into the bed and tacked it, then used thickwall round pvc pipe cut to length for spacers then washers and nuts, works well. I used metal pipe first and the bed squeeked. This works well for me!
