More or less what I did. I got the first cross-member behind the cab square and level, then ran 2 heavy angles parallel with the frame rails to the back. The uprights are 2" x 3/8" and pick up on existing holes in the frame. The bolt holes were drilled in place to make sure the bed was going to be nice and level when the job was done. This gave a nice strong level base to build the bed on. The final framework was built up on this base and finally topped off with the timber - looks good (to me) and is strong and easy to remove if you ever need to.
