I finally moved to the bed area of my '88 Blazer today. The first thing I noticed while looking the bed over for rust was an obvious sway/bend/bow whatever you want to call it that appears to be in the same area from left to right across the bed in line with the filler neck. It's a bout a 3/8in dip. Also pictured is the tops of my bed corners. Neither come up to the bottom of the top and pretty sure something was dropped on one of them. If the frame is bent, I've been unable to find where. I went around with a tap measure and referenced several points but never found anything out more than a 1/4in or so if not less when referencing to the body to frame. What could have caused this and can it be fixed in the body shop? Should I even worry about it?
