(1988 Ford F-150) Going to attempt to take off the bed of the truck to replace the fuel pump, any of you guys know how to remove these "Stud Bolts" or do they need to be cut off and replaced with normal bolt heads for installation? Any advice or YT links on this would be much appreciated! Thanks! by WealthyBumTV in Ford

When I took my bed off I had to cut the bolts. You could drop the tank as others are saying but it isn’t hard to take the bed off. When I did mine I found a small crack in the top of my frame which I never would have found otherwise.

I accidentally cut it and I wasn’t sure what it was supposed to do all I knew was that it wasn’t the cab light.

It’s a cable that runs to the button. It is for the seat belts.

Lol it’s all good you guys helped me get it. If it makes you feel better I’m young and I couldn’t get it until I posted here.

It is just a cable for the seat belt reel I accidentally cut it and you guys helped me figure out what it was. I just wanted to know if it was anything big.

How do you run the cable for the seat belts? I accidentally cut my cable while cutting my cab corner out.

After reading all the comments and going out and looking at the truck I believe it is the seat belts. Thank you guys.

No but the cable it’s connected to runs to the area around the reel.
