I am looking at putting a flatbed on my '93 and was wondering if anybody has any pics of this setup. Also a good flatbed deserves a good set of stacks to go along with it. Any measurements of either one will be verrrrry helpful.

Thats my truck (91 350 DRW 4WD no stacks) I'll try to get some pics out.It's my work truck but it's pretty nice.

Naw....flatbeds aren't cool.....
Of course keeping the old girl running is cool....whatever it takes.
Gotcha...

i don't know if they are "cool" but i have had 15 dodge trucks and the handiest one i ever owned had a steel flatbed on it with the headache rack, gooseneck pocket and tagalong hitch. anything i wanted/needed to do with it ,it was convienent.

Mine WAS a flatbed. Then I started doing the portable welding thing, and NOW it's more like a utility body than anything, but the flatbed is still there somewhere! You can see the truck at: http://www.backwoodsenterprises.com/ , then go to 'Welding' then 'Portable Welding' and you'll see the truck. Might take a few minutes to download as I'm REAL new to the web-site building stuff and that's my 1st attempt!

Obviously you haven't seen many......

I have a wooden one, and love it. Just set it up for what you want to do. If you plan on a 5th wheel or goose neck, watch your length, and you probably won't be able to have it tilt. If I ever get the rear end squared away, I plan on putting on some under bed tool boxes. The flat bed has also made some repairs a lot easier to get too. Also reduces tailgaters.

i wish i had pictures of the 2 1st gens i drove before i bought mine. They were so tough i didn't know what to do with them. One was a 93 W350 extended cab that i pulled 30,000 lbs with and the other was a 93 W250 regular cab and i don't know how much i would pull with it but i wouldn't believe the places it would go with the trailer, I'm just mad i didn't have a camera at the time. Both Flatbeds!!! Redleg do you still have your box i need a tailgate for mine.

Sorry Chris, mine didn't have the bed since the contractor bought it from the dealer. I might know of one that may be a little ruff. I'll check on it, but it's in Leroy, Mi. I do have one off an 86 Chevy though.

Chrisguthrie- You need a tailgate? There's a blue one with the red trim logo on it for sale at the feed store down the street from me. PM if interested, I'll get details. Jim.
