Hello I had a question regarding long bed installation with hardware bought off of LMC. Part # 30-0120, it is sold as a kit. I do not remember removing those extra large set of two bolts. If anyone could tell me where exactly they get mounted that would be much appreciated. I have a 1978 K10.

Welcome from Austria. There you go.
My 74C20 had only one long bolt at this location on the driver side. The frame is supported with a thick walled tube to avoid deforming it when tightening the bolt. On the passenger side a short bolt is used because the long one would interfere with the brake line.
I can't remember where I ordered my bolt kit but it came with 7 short bolts and one long bolt.
