As 410C has stated the bed is solid mounted to the frame and if there is contact between the Cab and the Bed Apperatice, it is because the frame has twisted.

And yes, do the Ranger Frame ever twist !

Remove the bed and take a look at the frame, thinking cracks here, but maybe just flexing.

If it is flexing then what about boxing just from the Cab Back, I think Ford skimped on the frame in the rear of the Rangers more than the front but I am guessing here.

AND although you may know this, keep the welding ground close to the area you are welding and disconnect the battery.
