Today was another small step in converting the Mog from a RW1 into an Expedition truck, we brought home the troop bed

Andy came through again with a bed in great cond, just as promised. Thanks Andy! Won't be a RW1 for much longer.
My father and I left the house at 4am this morning and headed to the West side of the state to snag the bed. After a couple months of dealing/shipping the bed is finally here and ready to be picked up.
Paperwork done (always LOTS of paperwork) and waiting for the bed to be forked out to the truck.
And finally the bed arrived
The pallets and banding had come apart in shipping but everything was in one piece.
Dad taking some quick measurements. I borrowed the aluminum car hauler for the trip, the fenders are quick release for loading...nice!
Took a little adjusting but we got the bed loaded on the trailer and clearing the fenders.
All tied down and ready for the trip back home.
Only damage during shipping was the front mount under the bed what attaches the bed to the truck. Looks like it got bent backwards during it's voyage at some point. No worries, a little heat and it should be easily sorted back into shape.
More to come....
