Hello and question about m1010 box mounting

Hi everyone this is my first post on here. I have purchased a m1010 box that I want to mount on the back of my 2003 F350. Just to be clear it is just the empty box I’m not dismantling a complete truck. The box is a few hours away and I want to go ahead and get my truck set up to mount it. Can anyone who has mounted/removed one of the boxes post up pictures of the attachment points and if there are any critical tricky bits I need to know about? Thanks!

Pure guesswork on my part, but the attachment points are probably the same as for the regular bed. If you can borrow an 8-foot bed from the correct era, it would be easier to build to that.
Either way, I'd bring the box home on a trailer, then work on things from there.

Ok thanks. It shouldn’t be too hard to find the bolt spacing for square body chevy pickup beds. Renting a uhaul trailer to bring it back is plan b. I just figured if I could get it mounted there where they have a forklift that would be easier than in my driveway without one
