I was going to leave it alone. I credit my buddy, Guy, with pushing me to flatten the bed. I had my concerns that it might pop some spot welds, but everything held up while we pressed out the waves.
all you need is a hammer and a block of wood. Keep moving block around until it's all flat. i would put some more smaller braces between old ones as well.
@@clausschuster470 You're right, more bracing in between would help prevent repeat warping. That being said, the days of running this truck as a 1 ton load hauler are over.

Great idea! 😀 I will have to keep that in mind Tim! 🔧
