Pulling bed off for new panels, what needs disconnected?
It's been a while since I've done this. Pulled at least two that I can remember. The thing is, in the past, the truck was getting parted out. This time, she's for keeps. Other than the gas tank and bolts on top, what else needs removed? How can I remove the wiring to save for reuse?

Thanks. I'm probably just picking up some jap sides since they seem to be the only ones who sell the entire side panels. Not sure from where just yet.

8 bed bolts.
Remove the filler neck from the bed and leave it attached to your gas tank. Remember the one clamp holding the steel neck to the bed!
Rear wire harness should unplug at the driver rear frame rail plus both tag lights, plus any OP trailer light situations.
Check for old bailing wire and exhaust hanger patches tied to the bed.
You should be ready to lift.
