JE39 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I would assume that they are meant to level the bed, so the swage lines line up perfectly. They are individual for every car from the factory. So you'd have to put the bed on an then see where it needs raising to meet the swage lines of the cab. Shouldn't be too hard to see, given how thick they are :) (make sure that car is on level ground) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
