Not bad. I don't like the big gap between the top of frame and bottom of the bed though. Lower it down so it's maybe 1/2" above the frame (to give enough room so water won't sit between the frame and tube and create rust) and it will look better

Naw - you said short - so I added the "too high" - either way - he was just recapping both - meaning make it sit lower and make it longer and Dave would be good.

Now that we have it figured out GET TO WORK DAVE!

Trust me Karl if i wanted to all it takes is a little research and some time. But why would i dump money into a 460 when the motor i have now has 400 ft lbs stock and will last 3x long as a 460? Seems a little on the retard side to me.
