pulling dents inside bed, need advice

Doing some body work will be my summer project. Ever since i bought my truck its had dents in the bed running across the width of the box.

I'm no body guy by any means but with some sage advice I think I'll be capable.

Any tips guys? Calling on DieselBrad for this one.

No bodyman here by any means either, but do you plan to use one of the spot welders for studs that attach to a slide hammer?


That approach has interested me for awhile, and I find myself checking the Harbor Freight version, priced around $100.00 often.

One of the guys on the 48-56 forum made one out of a slide hammer with a vise grips welded to the end. He welds a framing nail to the body panel .
