Oh, lol makes sense. My dozer has a coffee can on the stack. Sometimes I forget to remove it though so when I fire it up the coffee can shoots way up into the air. Haha.

Mostly because your skills in paint.. well, what skills in paint?? Lol.
Bull Haulers eh? "Angled Back" sounds better to me. Lol.

I need to install my bed with the stacks on it. I havn't cut a hole for it yet.
I'm really not sure how any of it will work. Right now the bed and such is off the truck so I can work on the suspension. Been working on my new car. Oh and i'm getting another car soon.

Hopefully $600 profit from the first car. And $400 or so for the second car.

Then i'll have around a grand to waste on my F-350. =)

hav24wheel- Your rig looks nice. I think I remember reading that you have an 78 or so frame under. Did it start as an older truck? I like that flatbed. Want to put one on my 89F250. They look sick on this era truck.

If I do build one it will be mostly flat with square tube for the sides. My f250 is a work truck so it needs a flat spot to haul stuff. I like the crew cab on the standard cab frame. Did you have to modify the rear cab floor any?

Nope did a body lift so I didn't have to. It is a 3 inch. I did move my rear axle back 7.5 inches n pushed the front forward 6 inches so the tires cleared the fenderwell headers.

hav24wheel- What size tires r you running. I only ask because I think my TSL's are going to come into play with my fender exits. Looks like you still are running the factory style steering. My axle is 2" forward and am waiting on Ballistic to sent a few things, but I think I can still go some more. If you went 6" I'm sure I can squeeze 2" more
