Actually the mesh as you call will be a CNC plasma cut design, It will be a bolt on in case if the rear window is broken and needs replaced (don't want to pull a bed to replace the glass) .. same goes with the LP as well, the trap door that gives you access to the truck/trailer electrical is located on top of the LP [coffee] |

Here is a couple of pics of one of the trailers(built it too) I pull with the truck

OK, then it passes with FLYING colors then[laugh] The last one we built was all aluminum for a dually- turns out this new calcium cloride(ice melt) they put on our roads doesn't like AL much[yuk] We had to rip it off and paint it; whats the fun of having AL if it doesn't look like it[duhhh]
I really like your boxes- and a person REALLY shouldn't HAVE to plan the "next" LP failure[duhhh] DODGE, are you listening[guitar] |
So what do you haul on that huge trailer? Oh and very nice truck by the way
|
NICE flatbed!!!
Question... what's the spacing from the top of your tires to the underside of the deck? I'm still trying to figure that out for the deck I want to build... Rob |
Rob,
here is the link to the C&C upfitters guide, if your a standard cab w/bed you could probably still use some of the data... the bottom of my bed is 9" above the frame..that is max tire travel listed in a crab situation according to the dimensions / Views and chart section.. http://www.dodge.com/bodybuilder/2008/dm/dmmo.pdf |
Very nice work! Like the color choice, it shows off the workmanship much better than black would.
|
Thanks 6-C
Ted it is used to haul tubing to and from the oil/gas locations I work on.. https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...013-tubing.jpg |
how did you attached the bed to the frame, with the restrictions by dodge of drilling or welding top and bottom flanges? very attractive bed.
|
I used all existing holes, the upfitters guide gives you the specifics on what you can or can not do.. When I get some extra time I'll post a slide show of the project.
