FYI it is the same way, metal on metal, on my 81 F100 also.

I use to carry a 12' overhead camper and it broke one of the bed mounts.

I installed some home make spacers in between the frame an bed mounting areas.

I made some from a plastic milk jog cut a plastic to fit the contact areas,
I used my gasket hole punch cut to make nicely cut holes.

I put them in after removing my c/o camper.
