Redneck Engineered Bulkhead.

I figured, I do work my truck, and I do have a stack, and a need for a spare tire to be somewhere, so I went ahead, took some 1"x1" angle, made an upper and lower bracket, then took a piece of 3/4" plywood, a chainsaw, and the rest is, well...you'll see. The gray thing on the bed floor is another piece of 3/4" plywood covered with a plastic tarp to keep crap out of the folding gooseneck hitch. The setup works really well, and holds up to everything I've thrown at it so far.

Heck, it works. Wait for my next installment (HAHAHA) when I build my home-made dump bed insert. Of course, that will be made of steel, although I'm sure I'll put stake pockets in so I can add sides.
