    One of my bed D-Rings was rusted really bad, so I took the angle grinder to it to cut through the bolt figuring I could knock the bolt out and replace the ring and bolt.

    The bolt isn't coming out... is it threaded or something? Does someone has a schematic of these bolts on the frame?

    Thanks!

    The bolt that holds the d-ring also holds the bed to the chassis. Definitely threaded, and even when the part you ground off is still attached they can sometimes be quite stubborn to get out. Good luck...
