    So mine is seized, and I want to replace it. Looks like it bolts on from the TOP? So the only way to remove it is to take the bed off?

    I found a hoist from a '93 for $10. I'm gonna slap it on there. Probably going to just backdrill the bolts from the bottom to get them out, if I can't reach them with a wrench 1/32 turn at a time.

    Anyone tried this before? Seems like the only thing they changed from the old ones to the new ones is that the new ones are cables.
