Why not just take it off ?

If the tank is still in I wouldnt want to be grinding or welding back there with the tank in

[hotrod24]

yea good idea could i take it off and grinde out the spot welds and take it apart

Just unbolt the bed and put a 4X4 inside the rail near the center and pick it up with a cherry picker

[hotrod24]

i dont have cherry picker where is all the spot welds in the bed

[JJSZABO]

the only welds in the bed are where the rear vertical post (stake pockets) meet the bed.  There are two spot welds there - other than that they unbolt with about 50 thousand bolts (just kidding about the bolts - there are about 100 )

thanks jeff i started taking bolts out what would be the best way to get the spot weld out

[VileZambonie]

The only welds should be near the tailgate posts. Die grinder

[hotrod24]

today i got my tool box off and the other inner wheel tub i just have the spot welds now could i use a grinder with a cutting wheel or would a die grinder do the best

[JJSZABO]

A grinder with a cutoff wheel would work if you can get it in there.  It was tough for me to get my die grinder to fit in there.

[hotrod24]

yea my cut off wheels are thick so it will be a tight fit maybe i could grind them
