I would think you would start by unclipping all wires and hoses that have a mount on the bed's underside and then unhook the fuel filler and then unbolt the huge torx nuts in the bed...it may be that simple...

yep pretty much that simple, taking off your rear bumper will help avoid dagame too.
the gas tank filler hose, just pull it from the door with the 3 screws.
take out the tail lights ,push the wiring back threw, follow it back to make sure its free all around.
the 6 torx, if i rember right are t50's
just becarefull of the fuel sendor/fuel lines on top of the tank. just dotn drag the bed off, lift up while you do it till you clear this area.
Ive done it by myself, using a wooden dowl it pices of tube, to get past the tank. and a table to rest the bed on as a slid it off., but two people make it alot easier.
20 min or less job, really its simple
one tip, a pice of carpet on the ground if you care about scatrches, then you can prety much stand the bed up on the end, once you get it slid about 1/2 way back also.
