We definately need Kubota to post up pics of his flatbed. I might be flatbedding out a pickup this winter sometime......Got a line on a '79 Crew Cab, rust free, but its the Cab only......So I might be making a frame, finding a front clip, and then flatbedding 'er out........

Yeah I hear ya....The little stuff is what really eats up time. Running Brake lines took more time than I expected, fuel line, etc.

axle is is mounted up with 120" wheelbase
ladder bar is mounted to cab crossmember via new bracket...
hacked frame off right behind the shackle brackets on the rear(gas tank had to be removed obviosly...) To give and idea...the is about 7 inches behind the crossmember in front of the gas tank that chunk of frame along with my bumper had to weigh 150 lbs at least
i am very pleased...looks awesome with the new shortened frame and shorter wheelbase
now on to shortening the rear brakeline and slapping some shocks on the rear
then comes the flatbed, gas tank, toolbox and rails
it really looks like something has been done now...
