I did a quick check I only saw a few bolts securing it to the frame is it that easy? Just checking b/c nothing has been that easy with this truck so far lol and I don't want to miss anything hidden.

there is bolts inside the gas door, and iv seen on some trucks there is a ground wire, but not always there ans not always in the same place, and make sure you unplug the lights and pull the wires out of the bed

soak the bolts with penitraiting spray and let it sit a bit . who knows maybe you'll get lucky and someone had removed the bed before there for removing bed bolts could be easy

yeah just spray it down and let it sit over night then use and impact and you will get those bolts out in no time.
