with a 1" body lift your bed (because the tool box wont hit the hanger anymore) will bolt securely to the frame and will also level the cab/front clip up in line.
I guess I dont understand how the hitch will hit the bed sides.

Ok You know how a gooseneck hitch works and when you turn your bed goes under the tongue. Well my truck is way to damn high for that to work without a custom made trailer tongue

What you shouldve said was the gooseneck of the trailer would hit the bedsides and not the hitch :flipoff:
btw...
Thats to be expected with 37" tires there highspeed.
PS...
thats exactly what Im looking for in a trailer except the dual wheels. Im only looking for a 4-5 ton rated trailer and something in the 24'+ dovetail range. Find me one with your Cheet-hoe powers.

Not really. The guy that bought my last bronco has a SD on 37s and his clears.
BTW im gonna cut the toolbox liner and attach a piece of lexan with teh wondshield adhesive. Also somehow i managed to get the pass side WB off by 1.5". Apparently all the factory bolts holes are not the smae on each side.
Note to self: Measure from the end of the frame from now on.

Ugh. This thing is kickin my ***. I just dont know about it anymore. Still have to complete a ****ton of frame mods. Bed needs a new floor to fit the narrow frame. Then rebuild the rears/tranny/tcase. Run brake/fuel lines. Interior and paint. I just dont know about it anymore. Noones fault but my own. I jumped into this to quick and its just gettin the best of me. I just want to drive the damn thing but it looks to be another 2 yrs before that will happen. Im also running out of cash quickly.
