Auto Rotisserie
Joe,
I built a rotisserie out of wood a-frames and metal attachment brackets for my cab, bed and frame. I have the frame on the rotisserie right now. I chose not to use it on the cab because the height of the a frames had to be pretty high to take into account for the cg of the cab. It is about 3" behind the front door frame. you need to make the frame high enough to accomodate the part that is furthest from this point. It worked great for the bed and frame. For the cab I just made two carts that held the cab at the normal position and rotated 90degrees so I could get under it to blast the underside. I just finished cleaneing and painting my frame and it worked great for being able to get into all the nooks and crannies.
It took me $70 in materials and about 3 days to manufacture the aframe and brackets but they have been well worth it.
If you wants some pictures of my set up I can send a few.
