An adjustable bed is provided that includes a bed frame defined by a pair of side rails, a rear rail, and a front rail. A mattress support is disposed on top of the bed frame and includes a plurality of support panels, coupled in succession using hinges such that at least one support panel can be articulated, causing the panel to pivot about the hinge connection with an adjacent panel. An adjustment mechanism is provided that includes torque tubes that each include a torque shaft and lift links. The torque tubes are removably attachable to the side rails of the bed frame by inserting bushings on the ends of the torque shafts into slots running along the insides of the side rails. A motor is coupled to the torque tubes, locking the torque tubes in place. A set of foot links is provided for supporting a foot panel during articulation of an adjacent leg panel.
